    The car will be on sale in India before year's end and will roll out globally in 2012.

Skoda's answer to the VW Jetta rolled into view in Frankfurt...

...as the Czech company continues to expand its model range.

The MissionL is a compact sedan that will sit between the Fabia and Octavia in the Skoda line-up. It runs on a VW drivetrain but has its own sheet metal and interior design.

"This premiere kicks off SKODA's model offensive for the coming years," chairman Prof. Winfried Vahland says.

"This new compact model, along with other new products to follow, will enable us to accomplish our goal of increasing global annual sales to 1.5 million vehicles by 2018.

"We are going to present a new car approximately every six months over the next few years."

The car will be on sale in India before year's end and will roll out globally in 2012.
