Driving A Škoda Supercar? On PlayStation It's A Virtual Reality. You can now drive a Škoda supercar - as the budget carmaker has designed a speedy new concept vehicle but only on your PlayStation. Skoda Auto is introducing the Škoda Vision Gran Turismo, a spectacular all‑electric concept car, into the Gran Turismo 7 PlayStation game.
