Pricing confirmed for new Skoda Superb

Skoda is now accepting orders for the new Superb hatchback and estate, with prices starting from £34,865.

The Superb is available with a choice of six powertrains and three trim levels.

Key for fleet customers is a new plug-in hybrid model with an electric-only range of up to 75 miles. It's offered initially in the estate only, which is bigger and offers more loadspace than the outgoing model, but will also be available later in the hatch.

The Superb Estate is 40mm longer, with a luggage capacity of 690 litres: 30 more than its predecessor. Prices for the Superb Estate start at £36,165.

The entry-level petrol engine is a 1.5 TSI mild-hybrid with 150PS and CO2 emissions of 119-130g/km. A 2.0 TSI engine will join the line-up later with a two power outputs (204PS or 263PS). The diesel 2.0 TDI models have power outputs of 150PS or 193PS. CO2 emissions for the diesels range from 129-160g/km.

Both the 263PS petrol and 193PS diesel are fitted with four-wheel drive as standard.

The PHEV powertrain combines a 150PS 1.5 TSI petrol engine with an electric motor for a joint system output of 204PS. This is transmitted to the front wheels via a six-speed DSG gearbox.

It features a battery with a gross capacity 25.7kWh – around twice as much as that in the model’s predecessor – to offer an electric-only range of up to 84 miles.

The battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in around two-and-a-half hours at domestic wallboxes and AC charging points up to a speed of 11kW.

For DC charging, the maximum rate is up to 50kW; recharging the battery from 10% to 80% takes around 25 minutes.

There are new features such as Progressive Dynamic Steering, which automatically increases the steering angle when it detects that the driver’s steering response has come too late or is insufficient to avoid a collision, and the updated Dynamic Chassis Control Plus that supports an even wider range of damping characteristics.
