Skoda Superb And Octavia Sedans Set For Exciting Return To Indian Market

Car enthusiasts in India have something exciting to look forward to: the return of the popular performance sedans, the Skoda Superb and the Octavia.

Skoda India recently says they will bring back both the cars to the Indian market by middle of 2024. These cars were taken off the market in India in April 2023 and June 2023, respectively, because not enough customers were buying them.

At first, they will probably be imported because getting ready to build them here takes a lot of time and money. Skoda has said they are starting with Superb. They expect to launch the Laurent and Klement variants by the middle of the year. They have not given any specific date for when the Octavia will come back, but it will be available in India in 2024.
