How Did Skoda and Volkswagen Perform in December 2025? Let’s Break It Down Simply

If you’re wondering how Skoda and Volkswagen did in December 2025, the short answer is this: no big fireworks, but definitely better than before.

Compared to November, sales picked up in December. Year-end offers helped, showroom footfall improved, and things looked more stable going into 2026.

Together, both brands sold 9,823 cars in December, up from around 8,800 units in November. That’s a decent month-on-month improvement.

Skoda India: Kylaq Is Doing the Heavy Lifting

Skoda sold about 5,567 cars in December. And honestly, one model is clearly carrying most of the load.

Skoda Kylaq: The Real Star

Kylaq continues to be Skoda’s strongest performer. More than half of the brand’s December sales came from this single SUV.

  • Units sold: 3,668
  • Strong demand due to SUV body style, road presence, and pricing

Skoda Kushaq: Holding On in a Tough Segment

The Kushaq managed 958 units in December. Sales improved over November, but competition in this segment is intense.

Skoda Slavia: A Good Sedan in a SUV-Driven Market

With 711 units sold, Slavia continues to feel the pressure. It’s a solid car, but today’s buyers are clearly leaning toward SUVs.

Skoda Kodiaq: Premium and Niche

Kodiaq sold 230 units. It’s not meant for mass volumes, but demand remains steady among premium buyers.

Volkswagen India: Virtus Leads from the Front

Volkswagen reported 4,256 units in December. While year-on-year numbers are under pressure, month-on-month recovery is visible.

Volkswagen Virtus: Still Going Strong

Virtus remains Volkswagen’s best seller with 2,378 units. Even as sedans lose popularity, Virtus continues to find buyers.

Volkswagen Taigun: Gradual Recovery

Taigun recorded 1,778 units. Competition is tough, but it remains an important model for Volkswagen’s future growth.

Volkswagen Tiguan: For a Select Audience

Tiguan sold just 100 units. High pricing limits volume, but December showed a small improvement.

What These Numbers Really Tell Us

  • SUVs are clearly dominating across both brands.
  • Sedans aren’t dead, but they now appeal to a smaller audience.
  • December brought some relief after an uneven year.

What to Expect in 2026

Skoda and Volkswagen now clearly know what works in India. SUVs will stay at the center of their strategy, while sedans continue as niche offerings.

Upcoming facelifts, feature updates, and possible new launches could help both brands regain momentum in 2026.

Final Thoughts

December 2025 wasn’t about breaking records. It was about staying steady.

Skoda Kylaq and Volkswagen Virtus are doing the real work right now. For buyers, that’s good news—more competition usually means better features and sharper pricing ahead.
