Backed by a new entry-level model, Skoda records a solid growth in sales, while sister brand Volkswagen struggles without one
The Kylaq, Volkswagen Group’s first sub-4 metre car in India in years, is helping Skoda reach new highs. Volkswagen, on the other hand, remains at a disadvantage without a model eligible for the lower GST on smaller cars.
In October 2025, Skoda sold 8,252 cars in India, posting a 102% year-over-year growth in sales. For the record, the company had delivered 4,079 cars in October 2024. The Skoda Kylaq was the main driver of this explosive growth, which was the highest among all carmakers last month.
Skoda sold 5,078 units of the Kylaq in October 2025, and the model single-handedly generated 62% of the brand’s monthly sales. Its strong demand should be compelling enough for Volkswagen to gain the confidence to re-enter the sub-4 metre segment despite the earlier failure with the Ameo.

The Slavia was Skoda’s second-highest-selling model last month, but with an abysmally low 1,648 units. Compared to October 2024 (1,637 units), it saw just 1% growth in sales. The Kushaq performed even worse, contributing just 1,219 to Skoda’s October 2025 sales and witnessing a 45% year-over-year decline in sales.
As for imports, Skoda delivered 305 units of the Kodiaq in October 2025, which it sources in knocked-down kits for local assembly. Compared to 209 units delivered in October 2024, when the company was selling the first-generation model, this marked a 46% rise in sales. The recently launched Octavia RS comes to India via the CBU route and recorded just two units in sales last month.
