Škoda Auto India’s Kylaq SUV: A gamechanger in the compact SUV market

Škoda Auto India has officially launched its highly anticipated Kylaq SUV, positioning it as a major player in the sub-4m SUV segment. With a starting price of INR 7.89 lakh for the Classic variant, the Kylaq offers four trims and a range of attractive features, including a 1.0 TSI engine, six-speed manual and automatic transmissions, and over 25 safety features.

 The top-tier Prestige variant is priced at INR 14.40 lakh. Bookings for the Kylaq open today, with deliveries slated for January 27, 2025. In a limited-time offer, the first 33,333 customers will receive a complimentary 3-year Standard Maintenance Package (SMP), bringing the cost of ownership to just INR 0.24 per kilometer. Škoda’s value pricing, combined with advanced European technology, is expected to generate strong demand across India.

In Guwahati, the Kylaq is set to appeal to urban professionals and families looking for a compact yet premium SUV. With a growing market for high-quality, fuel-efficient vehicles in the region, Škoda’s emphasis on low maintenance costs and modern features aligns well with local consumer preferences. The Kylaq’s entry into the market is poised to drive Škoda’s growth, offering an attractive alternative to other compact SUVs in Guwahati’s competitive automotive landscape.
