Skoda Auto VW India Records its highest-ever domestic sales in 2025

SAVWIPL records 36 percent YoY sales growth in 2025 Total domestic sales was 1,17,000 units Cumulative sales reached 1,59,500 units

Skoda Auto Volkswagen India Private Limited has reported its highest-ever domestic sale of 1,17,000 units with 36% YoY volume growth, while cumulative sales reached 159,500 units (domestic and export). This capped a milestone year in which SAVWIPL crossed 2 million Made-in-India vehicles, underscoring the scale and maturity of its manufacturing operations.

The MQB-A0-IN platform—developed specifically for India—remained at the core of this growth and now underpins all locally manufactured Škoda and Volkswagen models. SAVWIPL also marked a major landmark in its internationalisation strategy as cumulative exports surpassed 715,000 units, firmly establishing the country as a strategic global production base for the Group. The Group expanded its global footprint by exploring and entering new markets in GCC and ASEAN regions.

The year also saw standout brand performances. Volkswagen retained leadership in the premium sedan category, with the Virtus commanding a 38% segment share YTD, while the first batch of the Golf GTI sold out within days of launch. Škoda recorded 107% growth driven by the strong demand of the sub-4-meter Kylaq and the Octavia RS’s passionate comeback, highlighting the strong bond customers share with the brand. At the same time, the Group has increased its customer touchpoints to a strong 700 across brands, creating a reliable and well-spread service network across India.

In the premium segment, Audi introduced the Q7 Signature Edition, the Q3 and Q5 Signature Lines, and the award-winning RSQ8 Performance, setting new benchmarks for power, precision, and luxury. Lamborghini launched the Temerario, while the Revuelto was named ‘Super Car of the Year’. Porsche expanded to 13 points of sale and added new experiential formats to deepen customer engagement. Bentley joined SAVWIPL as the sixth brand, establishing new dealerships in Mumbai, Bengaluru and Delhi.

Piyush Arora, Managing Director & CEO, Škoda Auto Volkswagen India, said, “2025 has been a year of purposeful and broad-based progress for us. What stands out is that our performance is rooted in consistent execution and long-term road map for India. The strength of our Make-in-India strategy—supported by deeper localisation, scale and a robust product pipeline—is visible across manufacturing, sales and exports. As we move into 2026, our priorities remain clear: expand our portfolio and widen our network in line with customer needs, while strengthening India’s role as a high-quality global manufacturing hub. The momentum of this year reinforces our belief that India will be an even larger contributor to the Group’s global growth journey.”

With a host of product launches planned in 2026, SAVWIPL aims to build on this momentum, strengthen customer engagement and advance its sustainability commitments.
