What does homologation
really mean?
Homologation is a long and demanding journey
that culminates in the issuing of a Vehicle Type
Approval Certicate. Without it, production
lines would remain empty, as this certicate is
a mandatory prerequisite for placing a vehicle
on the market. It veries compliance with
legislative requirements – primarily those related
to safety, emissions, and other vehicle system
specications – have been met.
Moreover, legislative requirements vary
depending on the markets in which a vehicle
is to be sold. As a result, the tests required for
Europe dier from those for Australia or for
countries in the Persian Gulf, for example.

Škoda Weekly 8/2026
Škoda Auto, in cooperation with the Partnership Foundation, has taken a signicant
step to aid rehabilitation eorts for injured individuals in Ukraine. The automaker
has donated a specially modied Škoda Octavia to the UNBROKEN rehabilitation
center. The car, developed from a non-homologated model by the company’s Technical
Development department, is tailored to meet the needs of people with limited
mobility. At the rehabilitation center, the Octavia will be used for practical training, helping
patients practice getting in and out of the vehicle and perform other everyday tasks. These
exercises are vital for individuals recovering from serious injuries, as they prepare to regain
independence and return to daily life.
