Eleven months into its launch, the Skoda Kylaq compact SUV has gone past 43,000 units in wholesales. As per SIAM statistics, between January and November 2025, Skoda India has dispatched a total of 43,204 units to its dealers across the country.
The Kylaq has benefited from being part of the compact SUV segment, which is among the big beneficiaries of the GST cut in new vehicle prices. The compact SUV sub-segment, which has over 20 models vying for a slice and more of the action, is an extremely competitive one and accounts for the bulk of the utility vehicle (UV) wholesales in India.
Between January and November 2025, the overall UV segment is estimated to have registered factory dispatches of 2.69 million units to which the compact SUV has contributed 1.29 million units, making for a 48% share, with the balance 52% share accounted for by the midsize SUV and MPV sub-segments. This performance is similar to FY2025 when 13,83,334 compact SUVs were sold (up 10% YoY), giving them a 49% share of the record 27,97,229 UVs sold last fiscal.
KYLAQ COMMANDS 64% SHARE OF SKODA INDIA SALES IN JANUARY-NOVEMBER
The Kylaq, Skoda India’s vehicle of entry into the booming compact SUV market, has received a strong customer response. So much so that from February 2025 onwards, it has become the company’s best-selling locally produced vehicle, ahead of the Slavia sedan and Kushaq SUV.
The Kylaq’s cumulative 11-months sales (43,204 units) give it a 64% share of the 67,099 Skoda vehicles sold. The Kylaq’s best month to date was April 2025 (5,364 units). As the wholesales data table above depicts, the Kylaq’s sales have jumped 32% quarter on quarter – from January-March’s 10,205 units to April-June’s 13,509 units. Demand dropped 19% QoQ in July-September (10,874 units). October-November sales are 8,616 units.
At 43,204 units, the Kylaq is way ahead of the other Skoda products – Slavia (12,761 units, 19% share), Kushaq (9,786 units, 15% share), Kodiaq (1,247 units, 1.85% share), Octavia (94 units) and Superb (7 units) and has re-energised the company’s share in the SUV segment.
