00:00We are at the Kailaq cover drive, exciting two days where top media from across India
00:08drove our new car.
00:10Hiri, welcome to India and can you introduce us to the Kailaq.
00:13Sandeep, thank you very much.
00:16Kailaq is the very first ŠKODA coming to the segment A00 SUV in India which is making
00:24more than 30% in the segment.
00:27And Kailaq was already engineered in India, for India, with very close cooperation between
00:33Vladislav and Savipo.
00:35And the main topics for the car is really to be concentrated on comfort, safety.
00:43Safety is a topic where we don't do any compromises at ŠKODA.
00:48Has to be really good enough.
00:51And combined with the technique which is coming from Pusak and we are using the components
00:56from MPV 27 for that car, combined with 1.0 TSI engine.
01:03The car with the length sub 4 meter is coming with the wheelbase more or less 2.6 meter
01:10and that is really big support for the, I would say, art of magic of the engineers in
01:16ŠKODA to get very big roominess for the car.
01:21Not only for the passenger on the first or second row, but for sure for the boot space.
01:27Really best in the class here in India.
01:31And combine that car with the global design language which we are bringing firstly with
01:36this Kailaq to India, it is really very, very good moment.
01:41At that point I would like to say for every one part of the team in Vladávol and Slav,
01:48many thanks for the cooperation, many thanks for the support to be able to do it.
01:54Absolutely, Jiri.
01:55Thank you for those insights and let's hear from Peter on how Kailaq is going to change
01:59the game for ŠKODA AUTO in India.
02:01So all new ŠKODA Kailaq is bringing ŠKODA in India to a new era.
02:06What does it mean?
02:07We are dramatically increasing footprint of our touchpoints towards our customers all
02:14around India.
02:15We will soon reach 350 touchpoints, we will grow in sales first and we will immediately
02:22follow with the after sales.
02:23ŠKODA is covering only 25% of the potential new car buyers in India.
02:28We increase it with Kailaq to over 60%.
02:32So we become a real volume player in India.
02:35We are all looking forward.
02:37Our network is very much looking forward.
02:40The car is great.
02:41ŠKODA is offering a lot of things.
02:43For the first time, somebody brings such a state of art, of peace, which is bringing
02:49a higher platform to the lower segment, sub-4m segment is something that will bring us volume
02:56and will bring us closer to the Indian customer.
02:59With the car, which was developed in India for India, we will finally make this huge
03:06step for the brand ŠKODA.
03:08We are very proud and looking forward.
