New Business & Products
Under the new strategy, Skoda India plans to enter the pre-owned car market. This segment has experienced significant growth in recent years, with many original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) venturing into it. By offering certified pre-owned cars, Skoda provides customers with peace of mind when purchasing directly from an OEM. The company aims to achieve growth through this new venture while also enhancing its corporate and rural channels.
The brand is planning to expand its model lineup by introducing new products. At present, it offers one sedan and 3 SUV models in the Indian market. Skoda has already announced its intention to launch a new global icon in India, which may be the Skoda Superb, aimed at the premium sedan market.
Enhanced Customer Experience & Reach
Skoda India currently operates over 290 touchpoints across 165 cities in the country. The brand aims to increase this number to 350 touchpoints by the end of 2025. A key part of their new strategy is to penetrate tier II and tier III markets. Additionally, Skoda is focused on enhancing the customer experience by improving after-sales services.
Customers can now enjoy the benefits of the Skoda Supercare program, which will be standard across all Skoda cars. This program provides peace of mind, as customers will only need to pay for routine servicing at the end of their second year of ownership or after completing 30,000 km. Additionally, the brand will introduce various warranty and service packages to build customer trust and enhance the overall ownership experience.
