Features4.5

The Skoda Kylaq misses out on ADAS features, but it claws back with a five-star rated platform at the GNCAP. The Kylaq looks stylish, the interiors feel premium, and it packs a decent set of features as well. However, the ownership experience and the pricing of all variants will determine its impact in the market.

Pros & Cons of Skoda Kylaq

• What we admire in this car

  • Looks like the mini Kushaq
  • Good build quality uses the same platform as Kushaq and Slavia
  • The decently equipped interior gets segment-first features like a powered co-driver seat
  • The 17-inch wheels offer a good stance and a big car feel
  • 446 litres of boot space, expendable to a massive 1,265 litress
  • - The 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine offers adequate performance

  • The rear seat is good to accommodate two adults only
  • Misses on some features like ADAS, a 360-degree camera which is available in the rivals
  • No additional engine option is available

Skoda Kylaq Detailed Review

Hints of the Kushaq present, but the Kylaq has its own identity and looks properly premium 4.5

• The Kylaq is the first Skoda car in India to come with the Modern Solids design language. As such, it makes use of some new design elements.

• The Skoda grille has been redesigned to align with the new design language, and it gets a split headlamp treatment with DRLs placed above the headlamps.

• The presence of cladding all around gives it a tougher, more imposing stance, and the profile is typically Skoda; understated, clean, and yet fresh and modern.

• The design of the alloy rims is completely new, and the rear of the Kylaq receives smaller, square-ish tail lamps, with a black element and Skoda lettering on the tailgate.

Kylaq body specifications:

Wheel Size	R16 & R17
Seating Capacity	5 seaters
Ground Clearance	189 mm
Boot Space	446 liters

The interiors of the Kylaq will feel similar to the Kushaq and the Slavia, with identical elements 4

• The two-spoke steering wheel, indicator stalks, air-con vents, and the glovebox have been lifted off of the Kushaq.

• The boot space of the Kylaq is 446 litres, which is easily more than what you get compared to its rivals.

• The leatherette upholstery and dual-tone treatment looks and feels properly premium, as one would expect from a Skoda.

• Similar to the Kushaq, the Kylaq also seats four comfortably, and the seat pockets receive a separate slot for your smartphone.

• Skoda has thought out one particularly clever bit, the parcel tray of your boot can be stored behind the rear seat, so you don’t have to worry about stowing it away.

A decent equipment list on offer; it doesn’t feel overloaded unlike some cars in the segment 4.5

• The base variants of the Kylaq receive twin analogue dials, which actually look rather cool and classy in an age of digital screens. The higher variants get an 8-inch digital cluster.

• There is a 10.1-inch infotainment touch screen, and Skoda’s wireless smartphone connectivity typically works well. It also gets a wireless charging pad, ventilated front seats with power adjustment, electric sunroof, automatic climate control, cruise control, and paddle shifters.

• Skoda is aiming for a five-star BNCAP rating, with the Kushaq and Slavia having already achieved it at the GNCAP tests. The Kylaq gets six airbags, brake disc wiping, ISOFIX child seat mounts, passenger airbag de-activation, and multi-collision braking.

Kylaq features:

TPMS	Yes
Wireless Charger	Yes - Front
Ventilated Seats	Front Row

Smaller 1.0-litre TSI on par with most rivals 4

• The Kylaq receives the smaller 1.0-litre turbo-petrol powertrain, with 113bhp and 178Nm of torque, paired to either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque-converter automatic transmission.

• Built on the same MQB-A0-IN platform, we can expect the Kylaq to possess similar driving characteristics compared to the Kushaq.

Kylaq engine specifications:

Transmission	Manual & Automatic
Mileage	19.05 kmpl to 19.68 kmpl
Engine	999 cc
Power	113.98 bhp @ 5000 - 5500 rpm
Torque	178 Nm @ 1750 - 4000 rpm
Drive Train	FWD

  Decent Car
  The car looks decent from the outside. The rest will be clear only after buying and using it. On the road, it isn’t seen very often and doesn’t catch the eye much, especially in Uttarakhand.

  Great Value Car
  Coming car. Nice car. The 2025 model is super fast, with an automatic sunroof. The features are amazing—definitely one of the best cars under 10 lakh. The price is really good too. Thanks for offering such a great car.

  Comfortable Škoda Experience
  Good car, but I wish it wasn’t diesel; otherwise, I would have kept it longer. Škoda Kusha offers a similar experience and comfort, so I would like to try Škoda next.
