Skoda Revives Classic Favorit as Electric Concept
Skoda is making a new, electric version of their old Favorit car!
The Favorit was a super important car for Skoda back in the 1980s because it was their first car with a new type of engine and helped them become a global brand.
Now, they're using the Favorit to show what their cars might look like in the future.
The new version is electric, but still looks like the old Favorit, especially with its cool lights.
It's like a reminder of the past, but also a sneak peek at what's coming next for Skoda cars.
This is part of a series where they redesign some of their older models.
Skoda unveiled an electric concept based on the classic Favorit hatchback.
The new concept is part of Skoda's 'Icons Get a Makeover' design series.
The original Favorit, launched in 1987, was Skoda's first front-wheel-drive car.
The new concept embraces Skoda's 'Modern Solid' design language.
The design connects Skoda's past with its electrified future, though not for production.
