The Škoda Octavia Estate has become the “Most Beautiful Car of the Year” in the Czech Republic. This decision was taken by TV viewers during a live coverage of a gala evening broadcast on the TV Prima television station on the eve of an official opening ceremony at the Brno Motor Show. A record-breaking 426,373 viewers and website readers took part in the poll.
The Škoda Octavia Estate won a total of 46,084 valid votes ahead of the Ferrari F430 (24,542 votes), the Peugeot 407 SW (21,670 votes), the BMW 6 (21,313 votes), the Brabus SLK K4 (19,025 votes), and the Volkswagen Passat (18,084 votes). Thirty-two car makes had been nominated for the poll.

The “Most Beautiful Car of the Year” title is not the first award the new Octavia has captured. Last November, an international panel of judges including architects, critics and artists awarded the “Most Beautiful Automobile of the Year 2004” title to the Škoda Octavia in Milan. In the Czech Republic, the Škoda Octavia became the “Car of the Year 2005” and acquired the prestigious “National Design Award”. The Octavia is also the “Car of the Year” prize winner in Finland, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Serbia and Montenegro, and in Ukraine. Moreover, it gained the “Golden Wheel” award in Germany and the “Family Car of the Year 2005” prize in England. On top of that, having won the Czech national round of an “Auto 1” poll, the Škoda Octavia was ranked second overall in the All-European “Auto 1” final easily winning the engineers category.
