Skoda’s sales fell for a fourth consecutive year in 2022 as the semiconductor shortage, supply-chain challenges and rising energy costs limited production volumes.
The Czech company maintains a “high order backlog”, it said in a statement, demonstrating "strong customer demand" for its cars.
In total, Skoda delivered 731,300 cars during 2022, 149,600 (16.7%) less than in the previous year.
All but two of the brand’s models suffered a reduction in sales.
