Skoda, a subsidiary of the international VW Group that is based in Czech Republic has four cars in India. Though the brand is not a global hit, Skoda automobiles in India have seen great success. Skoda aims at producing environment-friendly new cars with high standards of comfort and safety. It has a manufacturing plant based at Shendra, on the outskirts of Aurangabad in the Maharashtra state of India. In this article let’s have a look at the Skoda automobiles in India.
Fabia, a Skoda automobile in India, is loaded with the best-in-class technology and extraordinary comfort. Active, Classic, Ambiente and Elegance are the four variants of this Skoda automobile in India. It comes with a choice of one diesel and 2 petrol motors. An impressive 70 bhp is packed in the 1.4-litre PD TDI Inline-3 diesel motor while 1.4-litre MPI Inline-4 delivers 86 bhp and the 1.2 MPI I4 petrol engine churns out 70 bhp. The Skoda Fabia’s engine is coupled with a 5-speed manual transmission which allows smooth shifting of gears on the humpy bumpy roads in India. Lavish dual-tone interiors add the final streak of luxury.
The Skoda Laura, a leader when Skoda automobiles in India are considered, is a masterpiece of modern styling, outstanding manufacturing quality and ground-breaking engine technology. This Skoda automobile in India comes as three variants: Laurin and Klement, Elegance, and Ambiente. The engine varieties include a 1.8-litre TSI, a 1.9-litre TDI PD, and a 2.0-litre TDI PD. The classy, elegant and comfy interiors draw attention to the chrome-accentuated interior door handles, rich Ivory upholstery, and wood furnishing. This Skoda automobile has made its entry in India with a 12-way electrically adjustable driver seat and plenty of other features.
The Skoda Octavia is a well-built luxury-filled Skoda automobile in India. The car symbolizes the fine blend of quality, ideal designing and fresh technology. This Skoda automobile has made its entry in India as four variants: Ambiente Turbo, Ambiente, Laurin and Klemant, and Elegance 1.9 TDi and these suit the roads of India just right. The Octavia comes with a choice of two engines, a 1.8-litre turbo petrol and a 1.9-litre TDi diesel motor. The engine in all variants is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Superb, roomy interiors in a mixture of wood and leather give it the looks that make the car so well known in India.
The Superb is one of the four Skoda automobiles in India that offers a 7-Star experience. The car comes in just three variants in India – 1.8 TSI, TDI PD, and V6 FSI 4×4. Making its entry in India in two petrol variants, the 1.8-litre turbocharged and 3.6-litre V6 turbocharged versions, the Superb is certainly a superb car. The diesel variant derives its power from a 2-litre I4 turbocharged motor. The Skoda Superb shows off ivory Nappa leather seats, dual tone Onyx-Ivory interiors, wood design interior décor, 2-way electrically adjustable driver seat with programmable memory and loads of other features for car buyers in India.
