Skoda Auto India has registered sales of over 1,00,000 cars over the last two years, on the back of the Kushaq and Slavia.
Both these models have been instrumental in the achievement of these volumes, which previously took the company more than six years to reach.
The company noted in a press release that 2022 was a record-breaking one for Škoda Auto India, following the two big launches of Kushaq and Slavia. In 2023, the momentum was slightly hampered by supply issues and related constraints. While working towards a full recovery, Škoda achieved sales of 48,755 units in the period from January 1 to December 31, 2023.
Petr Janeba, Brand Director, Skoda Auto India said, "It was extremely important for us to maintain our momentum through 2023 after the record-high of 2022. Our efforts in 2023 focussed on consolidating our position by continuous enhancements across our product range, widening our network and improving the quality in sales and after-sales for more satisfied customers, connected through our Human Touch philosophy to cater to all our customer’s needs."
"Despite the supply challenges in the first half of the year, we have ensured that we ended the last quarter of 2023 on a positive note," he added.
Skoda Auto India registered sales of 48,755 in the year. While the record was set on the fresh launches of the Kushaq and Slavia across Q3 2021 and Q1 2022, the year 2023 has seen the company further strengthen their products with the Kodiaq also registering a jump of 100% over 2022, and recording an all-time high annual sales volume.
India continues to be a key market for Skoda Auto, and one of the largest markets outside Europe.
