The Indian market has tremendous importance for ŠKODA's future growth strategy. In 2017, ŠKODA's deliveries in India rose almost by 30 percent to 17,438 cars (+30 % growth over 2016). ŠKODA Auto India Private Ltd. currently offers four models on the Indian subcontinent: the OCTAVIA, SUPERB, RAPID and most recently the KODIAQ, which was launched in October 2017. The RAPID is manufactured at the Pune plant, while the OCTAVIA, SUPERB and KODIAQ models are produced in Aurangabad where the company headquarters are located. ŠKODA vehicles are sold in India through 70 dealerships, and 70 service centres are available to customers. As a part of the new campaign, ŠKODA AUTO India has revamped its entire network including sales and service outlets. This modernised appearance is based on ŠKODA's new corporate design & identity.
