2023 Skoda Superb

The fourth-generation Skoda Superb was spotted during testing and will bring a new approach to exterior design. It will also have a completely new interior when it hits the market in 2024.

The new Superb is based on the modular MQB platform of the Volkswagen Group, and the test model revealed a slight increase in length and wheelbase. That will be a significant difference compared to the Octavia, a model that has also undergone some changes in its fourth generation.

As previously predicted, the car will have a lower roofline and wide and thin taillights, including a slightly longer rear suspension. It will have a new radiator grille and the side profile will be improved with strong shoulder lines.

The Superb will be powered by the latest generation of internal combustion engines from the Volkswagen Group. This includes 2.0-liter petrol and diesel engines that will meet Euro 7 emission standards, which are likely to be available by 2025. The new Superb will also be available with a new plug-in hybrid version.

New Skoda Superb

From the Czech car manufacturer Skoda, a new generation of Superb models is coming soon.

Recently, the first official sketches of the new Superb model appeared, according to which Kolesa magazine made renderings of its possible appearance. It seems like the new model could keep a proven look. The car will have a lower roofline and wide and thin taillights.

Exterior design coordinator Petr Matusinec said earlier this year that the new Superb will follow an evolutionary approach when it comes to the exterior. The first sketches showed similar proportions and design lines as with the model that is still available in salons.

European customers recognize the practicality of the Skoda models, compared to the competition. The new Superb will be slightly larger than its predecessor, to leave enough market space for the current Octavia.

Prototypes with a production body and headlights are expected soon, and when they appear on the road, we’ll probably have an even clearer picture of what to expect from the new D-segment model.

The new Skoda Superb is intended for the European market, and the arrival is expected in 2023.

The Czech Republic opposes the ICE ban

After the EU proposed a ban on the production of cars with internal combustion engines (ICE) by 2035, the first opponents of such a proposal emerged. The Czech Republic opposes the ICE ban, although most countries are announcing the dates for the introduction of a ban on the sale of new cars powered by fossil fuels.

“We will not agree with the introduction of a ban on the sale of cars on fossil fuels. That is not possible. We cannot agree with what the green fanatics are planning in the European Parliament,” Czech Prime Minister Babis told local media iDnes.

The Czech Republic is very dependent on the car industry. The car industry currently accounts for a third of the Czech economy. Škoda, Toyota and Hyundai are the largest car manufacturers in the country. With a population of 10 million and the number of cars produced, the Czech Republic is one of the largest car manufacturers in the world.

The Czech Republic will take over the presidency of the European Union from the second half of 2022, and then the ban proposal will be one of the priorities. The Czech Prime Minister added that they will support the implementation of infrastructure for electric vehicles, but will not encourage the production of electric vehicles, reports Auto News.
