Brief Explanation

ŠKODA officially named its new segment-entry SUV, set to be unveiled late 2016, Kodiaq. In a coup for the Czech car company, a city in Alaska changed its title for a day to mark the day of the official announcement. ‘Kodiak’ became ‘Kodiaq’, with a number of official signs being changed. A film unit documented preparation for the city’s ‘Name Day’, interviewing locals about their reaction to the change – with humorous results.
