Although fewer and fewer sedans and family cars remain on the market, Skoda refuses to give them up. The Czech firm owned by the Volkswagen group wants to swim against the current, confirming in full SUV fever that there will be a new Skoda Superb and it will also maintain its two bodies, saloon and family. It is a movement that powerfully attracts attention, because the bulk of its rivals have left the market, never to return.
During the recent presentation of results corresponding to the year 2022, Skoda has also taken the opportunity to discover some details about its roadmap for this 2023. And that is exactly where they have appeared Confirmed plans to launch a new Skoda Kodiaqthe brand’s largest and most familiar SUV, but also a new generation of the Skoda Superb, its flagship.
Its good quality/price/space ratio and the diminishing presence of rivals have made the Skoda Superb a benchmark
It would be the fourth iteration of the Skoda Superb, the fifth if we take into account the original 1930 model, a car that has managed to gain a foothold in the market thanks to its excellent quality/price/space ratio within the segment of general saloons. In fact, despite being located one step above the Skoda Octavia, another of Skoda’s historic sedans and its best-selling car in the world, Superb sales have managed to overcome the SUV fever that the market is experiencing with enough dignityplacing its saloon and family car bodies among the best sellers in its segment (60,800 units in 2022).
At the end of this year 2023 will be when Skoda discovers this new generation of the Superban evolution that will be carried out on the MQB EVO platform, which will result in notable improvements in driving assistance, infotainment, connectivity and propulsion systems. In terms of design, the new Skoda Superb will deepen the language used by the brand at the moment, an aesthetic inspired by the carving of glass and which translates into the use of polygonal shapes throughout the entire body, as well demonstrated by the Skoda Enyaq.
