Skoda Rapid (2012)

The Škoda Rapid is a name used for models produced by the Czech manufacturer Škoda Auto. The name was previously used in the 1930s for the Škoda Rapid (1935–47) and in the 1980s for the rear-engine Skoda Rapid (1984) coupé. Today, the Rapid nameplate is used for two separate small family cars: a liftback and a hatchback originating from Europe, and the sedan Škoda Rapid (2011) originating from India, based on the PQ25 platform. The liftback in its production form was first shown to the public in September 2012, when it was officially shown at the Paris Motor Show.
