Point less Pricing

May be Error in Price kindly check and Relaunch @skodaindia. Much waited for it's come back but Car enthusiasm like me will go for luxury brands At this price range, 45L would be Fair Price, better reconsider your pricing and act accordingly For those seeking luxury within a certain budget, it's advisable to compare various models and brands to find the best fit for individual preferences and financial considerations.
