Skoda India inaugurated its new state-of-the-art dealership facility in Bengaluru, partnering with PPS Motors. The new address for Skoda in the city is a 4,500 sq. ft dealership with 18,000 sq. ft. of service space, 70 plus technicians and staff members, 10 mechanical stations, and body shop bays, along with a service capacity of 5,500 plus vehicles per annum. All this would definitely help Skoda strengthen its position in the entire country, especially the southern part, where the company seems to aim towards enhancing the overall user experience.
All this comes after Skoda Auto celebrated 125 years of its glorious history globally, and initiated a new project named “INDIA 2.0”, under this initiative. The brand aims to double its dealership presence while expanding to 50 new cities over the next three years.
