For the uninitiated, as per Skoda's past naming strategy, the company uses names starting with K and ending with Q reserved for its SUV lineup, for example - Skoda Kodiaq, Karoq, and Kamiq. If such is the case, any of the newly registered names could be chosen for the production-spec Vision IN. Moreover, the company also has plans for more SUVs for the Indian market.
