Skoda to launch Kushaq Style AT with 6 airbags in November

At present, only the Kushaq 1.5L Style MT variant gets 6 airbags and TPMS.

Last month, it was reported that Skoda was planning to update the Kushaq 1.5L Style AT variant with 6 airbags and TPMS. The carmaker has now confirmed that the updated variant will be launched next month.

The Kushaq is available in three variants - Active, Ambition and Style. While the 1.5L Style MT variant gets 6 airbags and TPMS, these features were not offered on the 1.5L Style AT trim at launch.

The Kushaq is available with two turbo-petrol engine options. These include a 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder TSI that makes 113 BHP and 178 Nm and a 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder TSI that puts out 148 BHP and 250 Nm. While a 6-speed manual transmission is offered as standard, the 1.0L engine gets a 6-speed automatic option. The 1.5L motor comes with a slick 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
