Avia Motors sells 10% of Skoda cars in Romania

Sales increased 10 percent in Q1 2008 compared to the same period last year. The best sold model was Skoda Octavia, at 395 units, followed by Octavia Tour, at 257 units, and Fabia, at 124 units.

Avia Motors posted a 3 percent increase in turnover in 2007. The company estimates it will sell 2,400 units by the end of the year, due to the future launch of the Octavia Superb model, and models sold as part of the Rabla program, which encourages owners of old cars to turn these in for a reduction on a new car.
