Skoda aims to expand its service touchpoint using the new Compact Workshop concept. The brand has also revealed that all sales branches in non-metro locations will have a compact workshop. These compact workshops will have a minimum of two service bays. The Compact Workshop concept is in line with Skoda India’s customer-centric strategy.
Skoda’s new Compact Workshops will be connected to the main dealership to maintain and standardise quality. The Skoda Compact Workshops will also start operations in some new markets.
