Skoda vehicle lineup expansion in India

Overview

Skoda is expanding its vehicle offerings in the Indian market through several new model introductions and updates. The company introduced the Kylaq, a sub-4-metre compact SUV featuring a 1.0-litre TSI turbo-petrol engine. The Kylaq is available in various trims, including the Sportline, which features a blacked-out aesthetic and 17-inch alloy wheels.

In the performance segment, Skoda launched the Kodiaq RS, a limited-run, CBU-imported SUV powered by a 2.0-litre TSI turbo-petrol engine. Additionally, the company unveiled the 2026 Slavia facelift, a midsize sedan featuring updated LED headlights, a digital instrument cluster, and segment-first massaging seats for rear passengers.

Skoda’s strategy includes evaluating CNG variants for the Kylaq, Kushaq, and Slavia, while exploring the limited import of global electric vehicles like the Epiq and Elroq as early as 2027. This move aligns with a broader trend among major automotive manufacturers in India, who are intensifying their presence through new electric, hybrid, and CNG vehicle launches to address shifting consumer preferences.
