What are the costs of spare parts and maintenance for Skoda cars in Vietnam?

After several years of driving Japanese cars, I want to upgrade to a European car to experience. After looking around, I quite like the Skoda Kodiaq, 7-seat design and rolling price of about 1.5 billion, not much more expensive than Asian car models.

The issue of concern now is the cost of "car maintenance" because after all, this is a European car. According to my research, I know that Skoda is currently a parent company of Volkswagen, which means it is a sibling of brands such as Audi, Porsche, Bentley... Are Skoda's spare parts the same as Volkswagen's and what are the costs of spare parts in Vietnam?

Second, Skoda is a European car, so do we need to pay attention to operation and maintenance in Vietnam? Is the maintenance cost much different from Japanese and Korean cars? As someone who has driven a car, I am quite interested in this issue because these will be periodic expenses.

I hope people who are knowledgeable about cars, especially European cars, can share their experiences. I have been driving Asian cars for a long time, and this time I want to switch to a European car, but still want to optimize my finances.

Thanks!
