Skoda Auto Volkswagen India Reports 1,17,000 Unit Sales With 36% YoY Growth In 2025

Skoda Auto Volkswagen India (SAVWIPL) ended 2025 on a positive note, aided by steady industry recovery and healthy demand across categories. The company recorded domestic sales of 117,000 units, marking around 36% growth over the previous year, while overall sales, including exports, stood at 159,500 units.

The MQB-A0-IN platform, developed specifically for India, remained at the core of this growth and now underpins all locally manufactured Skoda and Volkswagen models.
