Mladá Boleslav, 19 September 2018 – ŠKODA #auto has today delivered the vehicle fleet to the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), cycling’s world governing body and the local organisation committee for the UCI Road World Championships in Innsbruck-Tirol. With 122 vehicles, the Czech car manufacturer will have a strong presence at the cycling #event taking place from 22 to 30 September in the Austrian province of Tirol. In addition, the ŠKODA logo will be featured prominently along the routes of the 12 World Championships races. By sponsoring the #event, ŠKODA #auto continues to strengthen its active involvement in cycling.
ŠKODA has a special interest in cycling because of its corporate roots. Supporting international cycling events is one of the cornerstones of ŠKODA’s sports sponsorship. Now ŠKODA is entering the spotlight as the sponsor and vehicle partner of the UCI Road World Championships. The company will be providing a total of 122 vehicles. The fleet consists primarily of the ŠKODA SUPERB and the ŠKODA OCTAVIA – both as saloons and estates, which the UCI will be using as safety cars and pace cars. The ŠKODA vehicles will also be used to provide shuttle services for the teams of all participating countries. Thanks to modern assistance systems, such as adaptive distance control, lane- keeping and lane-change assistants and their exceptional interior space, the vehicles are well prepared for the task.
