Re: Skoda Kylaq Pre-Production Camouflaged Car First Drive & Preview

Is it just me who's expecting atleast 1 Automatic variant below 10L?

I find the sportline variant redundant due to lack of basic touchscreen infotainment and no visible improvement over classic variant. Kushaq has a well equipped onyx at 2L price bump against classic. Here, this variant has minimal add-ons. It would be interesting to see why would anyone choose sportline over classic in Kylaq if the primary reason to buy low variant is cost saving/VFM quotient.

Re: Skoda Kylaq Pre-Production Camouflaged Car First Drive & Preview

What a masterclass by Skoda. This is the first compact suv that looks desirable to me. Sadly in my opinion it is game over for the Nexon ,3XO , Sonet & Venue. This looks like a much better package than all of these.

Also Skoda has hit itself in the foot & the 1.0 Kushaq looks like a much weaker package now , there is no reason to go for one. I just wish Skoda also launches a compact sedan to compete with the new Amaze & DZire , it would be a hoot to drive with the 1L engine

Definitely not , I just want a VAG return to this segment. They created such a well proportioned CSUV , I want the same for a compact sedan

Also note that Hormazd Sorabjee is not a very tall person.

I was not aware. My Tiguan Allspace (import) came with only for the driver's seat.

Lava Blue has been removed from website now (It was looking royal though)

Re: Skoda Kylaq Pre-Production Camouflaged Car First Drive & Preview

The Kylaq is generating the craze amongst all in very small amount of time unlike the Fabia, which failed to make a success in spite being a better option in the last decade. Only difference here is the car in picture is mature, priced well and seems a perfect upgrade for all those who want to upgrade to the German engineering of VAG. Also, this appears to be a much better package than the VW Polo 1.0L TSI ngl

There might be a VW derivative of the Kylaq in coming months, so, let's hold our breaths!

CS Grey and White looks alluring, people who are looking for a premium sub 4m and upgrading a hatch may go for it.

Re: Skoda Kylaq Pre-Production Camouflaged Car First Drive & Preview

It looks to be a very likable no-fuss package, a safe, good looking, good performance, well packaged, decently reliable and upmarket product at a very good price point.

A perfect vehicle for a small urban family which has good performance, luggage space and safety for city as well as highway use.

Really hope it sells well, Indian car market needs Skoda/VW as much as they need us.

Re: Skoda Kylaq Pre-Production Camouflaged Car First Drive & Preview

What is with road presence of 2.0 crossovers in India. Taigun, Kushaq looks like competition to Nexon, Sonet, Venue and this one looks like competition to Punch and Exter.
