Skoda Auto Volkswagen India reported a strong performance in 2025, recording a 36% year-on-year increase in domestic vehicle sales to 1,17,000 units, underscoring the traction of its India-focused manufacturing and product strategy. 

Make-in-India strategy drives volume expansion 

Total volumes, including exports, stood at 1.59 lakh units for the year, marking one of the company’s strongest performances in India.  

During 2025, the group also crossed the milestone of producing over 2 million Made-in-India vehicles, reflecting the scale and maturity of its local manufacturing ecosystem. 

“2025 has been a year of purposeful and broad-based progress for us. What stands out is that our performance is rooted in consistent execution and long-term road map for India. The strength of our Make-in-India strategy supported by deeper localisation, scale and a robust product pipeline is visible across manufacturing, sales and exports,” said Piyush Arora, Managing Director and CEO, as per news reports. 

India-Specific Platform Anchors Growth 

The company said the MQB-A0-IN platform, developed exclusively for India, remained central to its growth momentum.  

The platform underpins all locally manufactured Skoda and Volkswagen models and has enabled cost efficiency, localisation depth and faster product rollouts. 

Exports Reinforce India’s Global Role 

Skoda Auto Volkswagen India also strengthened its export footprint, with cumulative exports crossing 7,15,000 units.  

The company expanded shipments to new markets across the GCC and ASEAN regions, reinforcing India’s position as a strategic global production hub for the group. 

Brand leadership and premium portfolio traction 

Volkswagen retained its leadership position in the premium sedan segment, with the Virtus commanding a 38% market share. The company also saw strong demand for its performance offerings, with the first batch of the Golf GTI selling out within days of launch.
