Skoda & Volkswagen November 2025 Sales Review: Kushaq and Taigun Trail Behind Kylaq
An analysis of the top winners and losers of the November 2025 sales of Skoda and Volkswagen cars in India.
Despite month-over-month drops for a few models, both companies saw overall year-over-year growth.
In November 2025, Skoda Auto India sold 5,491 cars, a 90% year-over-year increase over November 2024.
With 3,342 units, Volkswagen India also reported a 10% annual increase. Nevertheless, compared to October 2025, when demand surged during the holiday season, both brands experienced reductions.
| Brand / Model | Nov 2025 Sales | YoY (%) | MoM (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Skoda Kylaq | 3,538 | - | -30.33 |
| Skoda Slavia | 1,120 | -0.97 | -32.04 |
| Skoda Kushaq | 586 | -61.55 | -51.93 |
| Skoda Kodiaq | 153 | -32 | -49.84 |
| Skoda Octavia RS | 94 | - | 4600 |
| VW Virtus | 2,225 | 52.71 | -9.29 |
| VW Taigun | 1,077 | -28.06 | -30.96 |

In November 2025, the Kylaq compact SUV remained the most popular model in Skoda's lineup, contributing to the company's robust yearly growth.
Since its launch, this new SUV has been crucial to Skoda's comeback in India. Slavia and Kushaq, on the other hand, performed worse than they did in October and the prior year, indicating decreasing mid-segment demand.
The limited-edition Octavia RS swiftly sold out, indicating that performance variations are in high demand.
Particularly in the cutthroat mid-size sedan market, VW's Virtus sedan was its best-selling model in November, selling over 2,200 units and showing great year-over-year improvements.
Sales of the Taigun SUV, on the other hand, declined from both last month and last year, highlighting ongoing pressure in the competitive compact SUV market.
Although the year-over-year numbers are good, the month-over-month drops for important models show how difficult it is for both manufacturers to maintain strong momentum each month.
According to reports, Skoda and Volkswagen are preparing updated and facelifted versions of the Slavia, Kushaq, Virtus, and Taigun for debut through 2026 in order to fix this issue and perhaps boost future sales.
