So I fell upon this as I was surfing the web in my lunch break. After doing a few searches it seems to be all over the internet. Skoda is getting a new logo this year?
After seeing some of the pictures on various web sites, the "new logo" makes the Coles Supermarket logo look upmarket & exciting in comparison...

Some interesting info for you.
Skoda
1926 - 1933
This company has been founded in the year 1895. In Mladá Boleslav cars have been manufactured under the brand Skoda and though the name brand has been completely changed in form of novel product logo is visible continuity with previous stage and the logo of this company has a novel which is of oval shape where the brand name is yet a dominant one in the center bounded laurels.
1926 - 1990
The first logo of became so popular which is of which is of winged arrow and this particular one has already been used earlier in 1926.Below is a clear view of logos of Skoda company with clear description behind the design!

Manufacturers change their logos from time to time to update and refresh their image I don't have any issues with Skoda doing that if they want. I suspect that the median age group of Skoda buyers may be in the older range and perhaps the new logo, which will presumably be coupled with vehicle styling changes may indicate an attempt to attract a younger buying group.

Oh no! I liked the current badge . . . or is it the old one . . . anyway, I'm not too keen on the washed out green . .

I agree with Jayen, Yes the one shown ( to be the new one) its more modern and contemporary but.. hmm lacks explanation and seems like an easy change and seems to be very Korean and bland.
The current symbol is powerful, has meaning and carries presence in the market. I see no reason for VAG to change it unless they want to lower Skoda's value.
Added to that.. the current logo looks awesome on Luxons... lol
