Škoda Auto India Expands Kylaq Line-Up, Celebrates One Year of Strong Growth in the Sub-4m SUV Segment
Mumbai, Feb 05: Škoda Auto India, following its most successful year of sales in 2025 and the introduction of the new Kushaq, continues to accelerate growth with a strengthened product portfolio. Advancing its strategy of democratising European technology for Indian customers, the brand has expanded the variant mix of its best-selling sub-4m SUV, the Škoda Kylaq, offering greater choice, enhanced features, and improved value across the line-up.
Since its launch, the Kylaq has emerged as a cornerstone of Škoda Auto India’s growth story. With over 50,000 units sold, the Kylaq has played a pivotal role in the company’s best-ever sales performance during its 25th year in India. Its strong appeal is driven by a compelling blend of safety, driving dynamics, technology, and value, firmly positioning the Kylaq as a key contender in one of India’s most competitive SUV segments.
Commenting on the Kylaq’s first anniversary, Ashish Gupta, Brand Director, Škoda Auto India, said,
“The Kylaq is a strong testament to our long-term commitment to India and marked our entry into the market’s most competitive segment. Crossing the 50,000 sales milestone reflects the growing trust customers place in the Škoda brand. To build on this momentum, we are expanding the Kylaq range with customer-led enhancements and making it the most accessible vehicle in its segment with a real automatic transmission. With a wider and more structured range, and more exciting additions planned later this year, the Kylaq continues to embody European technology, strong value, and engaging driving for Indian roads.”
Expanded Variant Portfolio
For 2026, the Kylaq range grows from four variants and seven price points to six variants and eleven price points, ensuring greater flexibility for buyers. The newly introduced Classic+ variant is positioned between the Classic and Signature trims, while the Prestige+ now sits at the top of the line-up, enhancing choice across entry, mid, and premium offerings.
Democratising European Technology
Reinforcing Škoda Auto India’s accessibility-first approach, the Kylaq Classic+ introduces several premium features at a competitive entry point. These include an electric sunroof, cruise control, Auto IRVM, rain-sensing wipers, LED headlights and taillights, LED DRLs, and a multi-function steering wheel. Notably, it becomes the most accessible vehicle in its segment with a full-fledged automatic torque converter, further strengthening its value proposition.
Enhanced Features Across the Line-Up
Responding to customer demand, the Signature and Signature+ variants now receive additional features such as an electric sunroof, paddle shifters for the automatic, rain-sensing wipers, rear wiper and washer, and LED reading lamps. The premium end of the range has also been expanded with the bifurcation of the Prestige into Prestige and Prestige+, offering more flexibility among fully equipped variants.
Safety and Ownership Assurance
The Škoda Kylaq continues to set benchmarks as the safest ICE vehicle in its segment, earning the highest safety ratings in Bharat NCAP crash tests. All variants come standard with six airbags and over 25 safety features, with higher trims offering more than 40 safety features. Customers also benefit from a best-in-segment four-year standard warranty, four years of roadside assistance, and four labour-free services, including periodic maintenance at 15,000 km and 30,000 km, along with newly introduced Škoda Check-in services at 1,000 km and 7,500 km—enhancing transparency and peace of mind.
Anniversary Offers
To mark one year of the Kylaq’s success, Škoda Auto India has announced limited-period anniversary offers on select variants, with benefits of up to ₹50,000. Additionally, the one-year Škoda Maintenance Package for the Kylaq is available at a 50% discount, along with an assured gift for every Kylaq customer. These offers are valid until February 28, 2026.
