Škoda Auto Volkswagen India Private Limited (SAVWIPL) has achieved a significant milestone by producing 2 million vehicles in India, marking a major landmark in its 25-year journey in the country. This achievement comes on the back of strong commercial momentum, with October 2025 being the most successful month since the Group’s formation. The milestone includes over 500,000 vehicles built on the MQB-A0-IN platform, which was designed and developed in India by local engineering teams. This platform underpins several models, including the Škoda Kushaq, Slavia, and Volkswagen Taigun, which have become the backbone of the Group’s recent growth.
Škoda Auto and Volkswagen have posted strong commercial performance, with Škoda Auto India recording its highest-ever 10-month performance and Volkswagen India celebrating its highest-ever monthly sales for the Virtus. The Group’s premium and luxury brands, including Bentley, Porsche, Audi, and Lamborghini, have also contributed to its strong market position. Bentley has begun a new chapter in India, while Porsche has expanded its footprint to 13 points of sale across the country. Audi has celebrated multiple milestones, including the launch of its Charge My Audi initiative, which has installed over 6,500 charging points in the country.
The Group’s super-luxury marque, Lamborghini, has continued to set benchmarks, with its best-ever annual performance in 2024 and the launch of the Temerario in India. Piyush Arora, CEO & Managing Director of Škoda Auto Volkswagen India, attributed the milestone to the Group’s consistent investment in people, technology, and local capability, as well as the trust placed in its brands by Indian customers.
The Group’s export operations have also been a strong pillar, with over 700,000 vehicles shipped from India to markets across Latin America, Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East. This has strengthened India’s emergence as an export hub under the vision of ‘Made in India, Driven by the World.’ The Group operates two state-of-the-art facilities in Pune and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar, which anchor its India operations and deliver the agility required to support its multi-brand, multi-market strategy.
Overall, the 2 million production milestone reflects not just a manufacturing achievement but India’s expanding role in shaping the Group’s future mobility roadmap. With strong local engineering capabilities backed by global technology, the Group is positioning India as a hub that builds for both domestic consumers and global markets. The Group is intensively driving improvements across the organization, including cost optimization and market performance, to reinforce its competitive edge and lay the foundation for long-term success in India.
