Launched late last year, the Skoda Kylaq proves to be a triumph card for the Czech automaker in the country. The subcompact SUV has a major contribution in helping Skoda India climb from the 11th to the 7th position among top car manufacturers in 2024. While the company sold over 40,000 units previous year, it now aims to achieve annual sales of 75,000 – 100,000 units, with the Kylaq taking the lead.
