Skoda’s rise in India has been one of the more interesting success stories in the global car business over the past few years. While plenty of European brands have struggled to crack one of the world’s toughest and most price-sensitive markets, Skoda has quietly carved out a reputation for building solid, good-value family cars tailored specifically for Indian buyers.
Models like the Kushaq SUV and Slavia saloon have helped the Czech brand grow fast, while parent company Volkswagen Group has invested heavily in local production to keep costs down.
