AutoExec Summary
Skoda has introduced a one-off pick-up, the Mountiaq, built by apprentices to showcase their technical skills. Based on the Kodiaq SUV, this concept vehicle features rugged tyres, additional lighting, and underbody armour, taking 2000 hours to create. While Skoda labels it a unique prototype, the Volkswagen Group has shown interest in expanding its range of utes, as evidenced by previous concepts like the Tarok and Tanoak, hinting at potential new models in the future.
