Skoda Says It Needs To Increase Share In Group's Overall Exports

Mumbai: Czech auto major Skoda Auto India needs to have a higher share in the group's overall exports with a better planning even as it remains "committed" to more overseas shipments from the country, a top company official has said.

Skoda Auto India, which rolled out the second generation luxury 4X4 full-size SUV Kodiaq in the country with a starting price of Rs46.89-lakh, also said that the domestic market is far from a trend where people chose electric car as the only car in the family and that there must be a certain period in transitioning from one type of fuel to another type.

"We need to fight more for the export (as) the main export is still because of the Volkswagen brand. But we have opened a lot of new markets," Petr Janeba, Brand Director at Skoda Auto India, told media.
