The re-launched Superb will be limited to 100 units
- Powered by 2.0L TSI engine
- Single L&K variant
- New colours
Skoda has re-launched the current generation Superb in India at a price of Rs. 54 Lakhs (Ex-showroom). The executive sedan was discontinued a year back due to the introduction of BS6.2 emission norms. According to Skoda, strong demand from customers prompted them to bring back an updated version.
Skoda Superb; what’s changed
Not much has changed with the re=introduced models, however there are some notable changes. These include new Water World Green and Rosso Brunello paint options in addition to the existing Magic Black colour. Outside, we can also see new 18 inch “Propus Aero” alloy wheels with a similar design to what was offered in the Octavia. Inside, the car gets a new 9 inch “Columbus” touchscreen infotainment system which is further paired to an 11 speaker 610W Canton sound system with a subwoofer. Additionally, it now comes with 9 airbags, highline TPMS, park assist and driver drowsiness detection.
Under the hood it remains powered by the same 2.0L TSI turbo-petrol engine making 190HP and 320NM of torque. This can only be had paired to a 7 speed DSG automatic transmission. Though figures remain the same, the powertrain now complies with the BS6.2 emissions norms. The only notable addition here is the Dynamic Chassis Control to aid handling and ride quality.
The 2024 Superb will be available in a single top-end L&K variant priced at Rs. 54 Lakhs (Ex-showroom). However, this time around it will be brought in as a completely-built unit (CBU) unlike previously when it was assembled locally which has led to an increase in price by more than Rs. 16 Lakhs due to higher taxes. Skoda has also said that only 100 units of the sedan will be on sale with deliveries set to commence by the end of this month. The 2024 Skoda Superb will compete with the Toyota Camry.
