The car uses the same MQB platform as the recently presented VW Sport Coupé Concept GTE. For Škoda, the new Superb becomes a real breakthrough. When getting acquainted with the new car, you understand that the engineers have done impressive work in terms of ergonomics.
As the manufacturers claim, they consider the new Superb much more attractive than other cars thanks to the new front-end concept. With virtually the same length as its predecessor, the wheelbase has increased, which undoubtedly increased the size of the interior. In addition, the longer wheelbase also improved handling.
The Superb 3 has design features worthy of the premium class. Even, for example, sharp body creases in the design are not something every manufacturer can afford in mass production. Well, the interior trim materials are truly an indicator of a high level.
The new Skoda Superb will be supplied with a direct injection and turbocharged engine based on MQB technology (five TSI petrol engines and three TDI diesel engines). All power units meet EU6 standards, they use Stop-Start technology and braking energy recuperation as a basic option. Petrol engines have an output power from 92 kW (125 hp) to 206 kW (280 hp), diesel engines from 88 kW (120 hp) to 140 kW (190 hp). A manual gearbox is available only on the initial version with a petrol engine. All other engines can be supplied with a modern dual-clutch gearbox. Four engines are available with all-wheel drive based on the fifth-generation Haldex coupling.
