Skoda Auto India celebrates a new milestone in the company’s history: the production of the 100,000th Skoda Rapid at the Volkswagen Group production facility in Chakan, Pune. The celebratory flash red vehicle dons the Monte Carlo badge that pays homage to Skoda Auto Motorsport Heritage and Rallye Monte Carlo.
The marque was previously used in the 1930s for the Rapid (Type 901) and in the 1980s for the rear engine Rapid Coupé. In November 2011, Skoda Auto resurrected the Rapid nameplate for the subcontinent. The compact sedan was developed exclusively for the local market by Skoda Auto India, a subsidiary of the Czech automobile manufacturer Skoda Auto.
The vehicle is Skoda Auto’s best seller in the Indian market setting benchmarks for functionality, practicality, and spaciousness in its segment.
