Skoda, a globally recognized automotive brand, is admired in the Indian market for its stylish design and strong, reliable performance. The company recently unveiled its next-generation Skoda Superb at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, stirring excitement among automobile enthusiasts and potential buyers alike. This latest iteration of the Superb aims to offer enhanced modernity, comfort, and style. Let’s explore what makes it stand out.
Modern and Striking Design
The design of the new-generation Skoda Superb draws inspiration from the Skoda Kodiaq, featuring the brand’s modern and solid design philosophy. The showcased model is expected to launch in India with a petrol engine option.
Up front, the new Superb features angular character lines blended into a sculpted bumper, giving it a bold and premium look. The car is equipped with slim LED headlamps and integrated daytime running lights (DRLs), contributing to a sleek, contemporary front profile.
On the sides, the Superb flaunts 18-inch silver alloy wheels, while the rear profile includes LED tail lamps and a subtle rear spoiler for added sportiness. In terms of dimensions, the car is 4912 mm long, 1849 mm wide, and 1481 mm tall, with a wheelbase of 2841 mm. It offers a generous boot space of 645 liters and a ground clearance of 150 mm, making it both spacious and practical.
Powerful and Dependable Performance
The Skoda Superb has long been a favorite among premium sedan buyers in India, known for its responsive and dynamic performance. According to reports, the new generation model will be powered by a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine, expected to deliver 201 bhp of power and 320 Nm of peak torque.
The engine will likely be mated to an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, offering a smooth and efficient driving experience. This combination of power and refinement aims to maintain the Superb’s legacy as a spirited and luxurious sedan.
Sales Strategy and Market Launch
Unlike the previous-generation model, which was assembled locally, the new Skoda Superb will be brought to India via the CBU (Completely Built Unit) route. The earlier version saw modest sales, with monthly figures often below 400 units. In response, Skoda has decided to reposition the Superb as a more premium offering.
Bookings for the 2025 Superb have already commenced in India, and deliveries are expected to begin in the coming months. This new launch reflects Skoda’s commitment to reinvigorating its presence in the premium sedan segment.
