The Rapid nameplate was incipiently used in the 1930s for the Type 901 and the 1980s for the rear engine Rapid Coupé. In November 2011, Skoda Auto resurrected the Rapid nameplate for the Indian subcontinent. The compact sedan was developed exclusively for the local market by Skoda Auto India, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Czech automobile manufacturer.
The new Skoda Rapid, introduced in late 2016, shares the emotive crystalline design cues with the rest of the Skoda Auto product portfolio, among other elements: a plethora of safety and security modules, wealth of standard features, and numerous 'Simply Clever' solutions.
