Skoda's new logo makes appearance on Indian Rapid

Skoda's Rapid has been spotted in Pune with the companies new logo, as per images posted by auto website oncars.in.

The new logo does not feature the words "Skoda Auto" inside the logo. The winged arrow symbol is now in "Skoda Green" instead of the earlier "Natural Green". 

Skoda will be hoping the new logo will change its fortunes which are on the decline here.

Skoda's only real hit was the Octavia and even the competent Rapid has been unable to rake in the numbers for Skoda.

The Rapid has been outsold by the costlier Vento, between January to April of this year, VW sold 8767 units of the Vento, compared to 6001 units of the Rapid sold in the same period.

Earlier this week, Skoda pulled the plug on its Fabia hatchback due to poor sales.
