This latest iteration of the Superb places a strong emphasis on space, practicality, and technological advancements, further solidifying Skoda’s reputation for delivering outstanding value to its customers.
Evolving Design with Enhanced Proportions
The 2024 Skoda Superb maintains an evolutionary styling, but it’s the significant changes in proportions that catch the eye. The liftback version of the Superb has grown, boasting a 43 mm increase in length and a 12 mm height boost, while the wagon has seen a stretch of 40 mm and an elevation of 5 mm. These design adjustments not only lend the Superb a sleeker appearance but also result in improved aerodynamics. The hatchback now features a reduced drag coefficient of 0.23, a 10% improvement, while the wagon sees a 15% reduction to 0.25, setting it apart in the midsize sedan segment.
Spacious and practical interiors
Skoda’s repackaging efforts have paid off generously. The Superb now offers increased headroom for both front and rear passengers, ensuring a comfortable and family-friendly cabin. Cargo volume receives a considerable boost, with the liftback offering a generous 645 liters of space, while the wagon takes practicality to a whole new level with 690 liters of cargo capacity. Inside, the cabin has been revamped, with traditional controls reduced and the introduction of Smart Dials, configurable knobs featuring 1.25-inch screens, providing a modern and user-friendly interface.
Versatile Engine Lineup
Skoda offers a diverse range of engine options for the 2024 Superb. Customers can choose from a 1.5-liter gasoline engine with mild-hybrid technology, a larger 2.0-liter mill with power options of either 204 hp or 265 hp, or opt for diesel power with a 2.0-liter engine delivering 150 hp or 193 hp. For environmentally conscious buyers, there’s a plug-in hybrid variant available exclusively for the wagon. This hybrid combines a 1.5-liter gasoline engine with an electric motor, providing a total output of 204 hp while keeping emissions in check.
Technological Advancements
The 2024 Skoda Superb comes equipped with a range of technological enhancements that elevate the driving experience. Matrix LED headlights, known for their exceptional illumination, offer a remarkable 40% extra light output. Additionally, the Superb features upgraded adaptive dampers, which are available as standard on the flagship Laurin & Klement trim. For those seeking a touch of luxury, the Laurin & Klement variant offers a 14-speaker sound system, massaging front seats, and unique upholstery, creating a truly premium driving experience.
