Škoda’s got your back: How to beat the mud and hot-rods without losing your cool

Some moments behind the wheel are just asking for a few harsh words. Whether it’s bad weather, tight schedules, or driver fatigue, even small annoyances can test your nerves. But with a little perspective – and a Škoda – it’s easier than you think to keep calm and carry on. Škoda’s Simply Clever features and smart accessories are built to make every day driving just that little bit easier.

“Seriously? Now?!” How many times has the rain started pouring down exactly when you need to get out of the car? Waiting it out isn’t always an option. But with Škoda, even that’s no big deal. Many models come equipped with an integrated umbrella as standard, or you can add one as an accessory. It’s neatly stored in the door, out of the way but always within reach – so no more soggy sprints.

There are plenty more examples. Like dirty hands and trousers after unplugging the electric car from the charger, when it turns out that part of the cable was lying in a puddle or mud, waiting for its opportunity. A simple cable cleaner takes care of that. Even a non-dog person can imagine what havoc a dog coming back from a splash through a stream, a roll in the mud or just a run through wet grass can wreak in a car. The rear seat protector has you covered.

Dirty charging cable from the mud? No problem.

Fatigue brings its own set of challenges. Nobody wants to admit to pumping the wrong fuel because they were too tired to focus – and with Škoda’s fuel filler protection, you won’t have to. Then there are the real-world “boss level” moments with mischievous onlookers around: like trying to open the trunk with both hands full (and maybe wearing a pirate costume for a kids’ party). Cue the virtual pedal – just wave your foot under the bumper, and up the trunk goes.

Pay for fuel conveniently and quickly from your car.
