The rebranding campaign is a part of the larger scheme which is known as the India 2.0 project. It was introduced by Volkswagen Group as its new approach to the India market. The redesigning focuses on delivering a corporate architecture, highly-functional interiors along with a rationalized business process in order to achieve a higher goal of improving customer experience. This new philosophy is reflected in Skoda’s new design for its dealerships. In line with its new outlook, the Czech carmaker also introduced its new slogan, “Simply Clever with a human touch.”

The large-scale rebranding campaign is the part of the larger project

Under the new India 2.0 Project, besides the massive rebranding, the Skoda Auto India, as well as Volkswagen Passenger Cars will have to develop new highly-localized products. In order to do that, the car company is recruiting more local staff from different demography as a way to gain insights into the regional culture and mindset. In the future, Skoda, as well as Volkswagen, will introduce a series of new models underpinned by an MQBA0 IN platform which specifically developed for Indian market.
