Škoda Auto Volkswagen India Private Limited (SAVWIPL) has achieved a significant milestone in its manufacturing journey in India. The company announced the rollout of the 1.5 millionth vehicle from its Chakan plant. The Chakan plant, which has been operational since 2009, is the same facility where the company produced the tech-loaded hatchback Fabia. This was followed by the production of VW Vento, Polo, and Škoda Rapid along with new-age models VW Taigun, Virtus, Kushaq, and Slavia. In addition to vehicle production, the engine shop at the Chakan facility has also achieved a new milestone. It has produced over 300,000 engines for the VW Group, including the 1.0-litre TSI engine that powers the Taigun, Virtus, Kushaq, and Slavia. SAVWIPL has been actively contributing to India’s global presence as a manufacturing hub. The company exports over 30% of its car production, showcasing Indian capabilities and quality standards on the international stage. The Group has exports to over 40 countries and is among the top four exporters of India-made cars. Andreas Dick, Škoda Auto Board Member for Production and Logistics, said, “In today’s ever-evolving global arena, India emerges as a vital contributor to Škoda Auto’s production prowess. The milestones achieved by Škoda Auto Volkswagen India resonate far beyond national borders, reflecting our commitment to excellence and innovation on a global scale. Our decade-long investment in the Engine Shop and the remarkable output of 1.5 million vehicles at the Chakan Plant, showcases India’s pivotal role in our global strategy." This achievement is a testament to Škoda Auto Volkswagen India’s commitment to the ‘Make in India’ initiative and the ‘Skill India’ movement. The company recognizes the value of human expertise and continues to hone local talent. Also Read: Skoda’s new compact-SUV will have shorter wheelbase than Kushaq
