Expert Verdict on Slavia

9 /10

Ranks #5 in Sedans

Features9

Comfort8

The Skoda Slavia is a stylish car with lively engine options and a refined, luxurious interior. While the price for the 1.5 model may seem slightly higher, considering the level of features and luxury it offers, the Slavia appears to be an upgrade compared to its relatively more affordable competitors. However, if you prefer a naturally aspirated petrol engine, alternatives like the Honda City and Hyundai Verna are available for your consideration.

Pros & Cons of Skoda Slavia

• What we admire in this car

  • The Slavia offers elegant looks with good dimensions and ground clearance
  • It offers a good number of features such as wireless Apple Carplay & Android Auto, an electric sunroof, projector LED headlamps, a wireless charger, and more
  • Massive boot space of 521 litres
  • Powerful 1.0-litre and 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine
  • The active cylinder deactivation technology in a 1.5-litre engine helps in better fuel efficiency
  • It comes with 5-Star GNCAP crash test rating
  • It offers good ride quality and handling along with good straight-line stability

• What could have been better

  • The 1.0-litre petrol engine is thirsty and does not offer good efficiency in city traffic
  • The 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine comes with a higher price tag making it expensive
  • The base model lacks features such as no rear AC vents, front and rear armrests, projector headlamp, and others
  • No option for a diesel engine
  • The 1.0-litre engine is noisy
  • No ADAS on offer, for reference its primary rivals Honda City & Hyundai Verna offer ADAS
  • The rear seat is spacious but can’t seat three adults
  • Skoda's after-sales experience is still a hit or a miss

Elegant Design In Line With Signature Skoda Styling 9

• The exterior design of the Skoda Slavia draws inspiration from Skoda's premium models, such as the Octavia and Superb. The newly designed wide grille, surrounded by chrome, combined with crystalline LED headlamps on both sides, contributes to Slavia's appealing design.
• The headlamps also feature L-shaped DRLs, while the rear showcases split LED tail lamps with a crystalline pattern. A small badge on the front fenders and a unique notchback styling contribute to the overall silhouette.
• Distinguishing itself from other sedans, the Slavia sits higher off the ground, offering a substantial road presence. Dimensionally larger than its competitors, it provides ample space. The availability of bold shades, such as blue and red, adds to its allure. The Skoda Slavia is an excellent choice for those seeking a sedan with a sharper, more modern appearance.

Feature Loaded Interior With Generous Space 9

• The Skoda Slavia boasts a cabin loaded with features. While there are a few instances of hard materials, like around the inner door handles, the overall build quality is commendable. The sedan offers a premium appearance, offering an upmarket feel with a distinct design departure from the norm.
• Ergonomics are excellent, with above-average seat comfort, and the presence of large windows and a sunroof enhances the overall spacious and airy ambiance. Front seats provide ample room, even with a sunroof, accommodating tall drivers and passengers comfortably.
• Practical features include dedicated cabin lights for the rear seats, convenient phone pockets in the backrests of the front seats, dual charging outlets, and an armrest with cup holders. 
• Other features include a 10.1-inch infotainment display, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless charging, digital instrument cluster, automatic climate control, and other features.

Pliant Ride Quality Ensures Maximum Comfort 8

• Skoda cars are known for being really comfortable, and the Slavia is no exception. When you drive it alone, the ride feels nice and firm, though you might feel sharp bumps or potholes a bit. But when there are three people in the car, it smoothens out quite a bit. The balance is good, and it's comfortable.
• The high ground clearance is really helpful, especially for Indian roads. From the driver's point of view, the Skoda Slavia's driving dynamics are worth mentioning. It might not be perfect for people who really love driving, but it does make you smile and have some fun.
• The steering is light, which is good for city driving, but it still gives you enough feedback when you turn a corner. There's a bit of leaning to the side when you turn, but that's expected because the Slavia sits higher off the ground. Overall, Skoda has made the Slavia fun to drive.

Powerful Turbo Petrol Engine Promises Good Performance 9

• The Slavia comes with two engine options, and currently, both are petrol, not diesel. The smaller 1.0-litre turbo petrol is a practical choice with good torque at lower revs. Despite being a 3-cylinder setup, it produces 114 bhp and 178 Nm, delivering smooth performance without any unwanted vibrations. Don't be misled by its smaller size; this engine performs well even when the car is loaded with four people.
• However, if you're seeking an exhilarating experience, the larger 1.5-liter unit is the way to go, boasting 148 bhp and 250 Nm of torque. It provides excitement, thrills, and a great sound, benefiting from its 4-cylinder configuration for smoother operation. This engine comes with active cylinder deactivation technology which helps it to churn out better mileage.
• Both engines come with a standard 6-speed manual gearbox, and for the 1.0-liter version, you have the option to choose a 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. The 1.5L TSI variant is equipped with a 7-speed DSG. Paddle shifters are a common feature on both transmission options.

  No one can beat its quality, security, and comfort level. It is one of the best midsize sedans for the Indian market. Once you buy it, you forget it forever. Huge space.

  Its just few days when I have brought this to home. Overall excellent I can say as I have been a proud Skoda owner since 2017. The car look and performance is some year ahead of its rival. And when one talk about the engine and mechanical parts, no one can compete with German.
