Skoda electrifies Tour de France

This year's Tour de France, which started on 1 July, marks Skoda's 20th anniversary as the official main sponsor of the world's most famous cycling race. This year's 209 support and organisation vehicles are almost entirely electric.

207 of the 209 Skoda models in use have electric or hybrid drives. The race director leads the field in the so-called “Red Car”, a specially converted Skoda Enyaq Sportline iV. The Tour of France ends on 23 July in Paris.
