On 24 April 2024, Czech automotive manufacturer Škoda announced the 'Škoda Vision Gran Turismo,' developed in collaboration with Gran Turismo. This will be the very first Vision Gran Turismo car from Škoda and it will be coming to Gran Turismo 7 with Update 1.46.

Founded in 1895 and with a long and rich tradition, Škoda is regarded as one of the most iconic car brands in the world. The Škoda Vision Gran Turismo was created drawing inspiration from this long history, and its rich motorsport heritage in particular.

The one-seater, all-electric design is a modern tribute to the iconic 'Škoda 1100 OHC Spyder,' a car developed for the 1957 Le Mans 24 Hours race and considered a milestone in the company's rich motorsport history.

This exterior takes inspiration from the 1100 OHC while incorporating elements from Škoda's contemporary Modern Solid design language. This is evident in the crisp edges throughout the car's exterior and the T-shaped headlights that stretch from the fender to the bumper.

The chassis is made from a cutting-edge carbon monocoque that gives the driver the feeling of merging with the car. The futuristic steering wheel was designed and inspired by Gran Turismo 7. An onboard distance sensor tells the driver which other vehicles are around, an idea that can significantly reduce the risk of contact with vehicles, especially in the lateral direction.

Additionally, features such as an adaptive two-piece rear wing and active aerodynamics all work together to dynamically adjust to driving conditions and boost performance.

Two 200 kW (268.2 BHP) electric twin motors, one on each axle, deliver a combined power output of 800 kW (1,071 BHP). The inclusion of all-wheel drive with intelligent torque distribution across both axles and single-speed transmission ensures a balanced and responsive driving experience.

Encompassing 130 years of automotive heritage, the Škoda Vision Gran Turismo marks Škoda’s debut in 'Gran Turismo.' Experience the car for yourself in Gran Turismo 7.
