A fresh wave of service infrastructure is rolling out in Bengaluru as Škoda opens a new touchpoint in Peenya. The 11,700‑sq‑ft complex houses 20 service bays, a dedicated paint booth and an express bay that can clear a vehicle in under an hour, cutting downtime for owners.
The 1,000‑sq‑ft CPO showroom, the first of its kind for Škoda in India, can display two cars at a time. Buyers can inspect a curated selection of certified pre‑owned models—ranging from the compact Kushaq to the mid‑size Slavia—without leaving the city.
With Bengaluru now hosting 20 Škoda touchpoints, the brand’s footprint in Karnataka has doubled in the last three years. The new Peenya hub joins 33 other locations across 12 cities, from Mangalore to Udupi, giving regional owners a 30‑minute travel radius for service.
In a market where rivals like Hyundai and Kia are expanding 30‑bay workshops in the same corridor, Škoda’s 20‑bay center is a modest yet efficient model. It reflects the brand’s focus on quality over sheer volume, complementing its 107% sales jump in 2025 with 72,665 units sold.
The CPO strategy signals a shift toward affordability and resale value, mirroring Tata’s own pre‑owned network. For buyers, it means access to certified vehicles with warranties, a move that could push Škoda’s market share higher in the price‑sensitive Indian segment.
The Peenya touchpoint is slated to open to the public on 1 October 2026, with a soft launch for CPO sales starting the following week. Watch for the rollout of service kits and digital diagnostics that Škoda plans to roll out across its Karnataka network over the next year.
