The 3rd generation Skoda Superb will be officially revealed around February 2015 and is all set to hit the Indian streets by the end of 2015.
Powering the new Skoda Superb will be a 2.0L, turbocharged diesel motor producing 170 BHP of power and a 1.8L, turbocharged petrol motor producing 177 BHP of power. Skoda will most likely offer both the engines coupled to a DSG gearbox.
Exterior styling has clearly taken design inspiration from the Vision C concept. An already long and comfortable sedan, with the new Superb, dimensions are expected to increase. Based on Volkswagen’s MQB platform, the Superb is expected to get a bump of 75mm in wheelbase over the current model. Headroom for the rear passengers could also be increased without increasing the roof line.
