Skoda will bring the new Superb to India with deliveries beginning next year. The premium sedan is expected to start at Rs 50 lakh and will feature a 2.0-litre diesel TDI engine producing 150 hp and 360 Nm, paired with a 7-speed DSG gearbox.
The car offers a luxury interior with a Canton Audio System with 14 speakers, three-zone climate control, a 360-degree camera, 10 airbags, ambient lighting, cognac leather and a rear sleep package. It also includes dynamic steering and chassis control.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Skoda is betting on the Superb's diesel engine to differentiate it in a luxury sedan segment where petrol hybrids dominate. The brand had discontinued the previous Superb in 2023 amid shifting to BS6 Phase 2 norms and a lack of a petrol option that met the new standards. By bringing back diesel with a 7-speed DSG, Skoda targets buyers who prioritise low-end torque and highway cruising. The Rs 50 lakh starting price puts it against the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine. Deliveries beginning next year will test whether a standalone diesel luxury sedan can still find buyers in India.
