Skoda Superb is really a 'superb' car from the Czech car manufacturer and the recent facelift has made it an even better all-round package. The executive sedan boasts of premium & feature-loaded interior and the TSI-DSG combo is a great powertrain combination. The car has no major cons but we really wish that Skoda brings the oil-burner back in the Indian market in the future. It competes in the D+ segment and gets competition in the form of similarly priced SUVs. This executive sedan recently got a facelift in India (May 2020) and now features cosmetic changes, a new powertrain option that complies with the stringent BS6 emission norms, and also a bunch of new features.
The 2020 Skoda Superb Facelift is powered by a BS6-compliant 2.0-litre TSI turbocharged petrol engine that churns out 190 PS of power and 320 Nm of peak torque. The engine comes mated to a 7-speed DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox) to offer good drivability and lightning-fast gear shifts.
The new Superb Facelift is the flagship Skoda car in India and it boasts of a premium cabin loaded with a ton of features like a virtual cockpit driver display, an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay & SmartLink connectivity and best-in-class safety features like seven airbags, ABS with EBD, reverse parking sensors with camera, etc.
The 2020 Skoda Superb Facelift is offered in two variants: Sportline and Laurin & Klement and is priced at Rs. 29.99 lakhs and Rs. 32.99 lakhs, Ex-showroom respectively. The new Superb will be a preferred chauffeur-driven car among the buyers looking for a saloon in this price bracket as it doesn’t have any direct rivals in India.
