Now check out this recently rendered 2016 Skoda Superb. Looks more like a shooting brake concept to me.

Based on the VW Group MQB Platform, the new Superb is expected to have even more rear legroom than the current model, the unbeatable USP of the Superb (along with the rare diesel engine option) that made it a segment leader in India.

Re: Rendered: 2016 Skoda Superb.

Looks fancy. What is the MQB thing? Read somewhere that VW is gonna use it for Polo.
Back to the point, would anyone buy it? It is the segment leader after XUV 500 (Which is actually an SUV) and the ASS (After Sales and Service [roll]) is heartbreaking instead of groundbreaking. But the car looks so typically European. Good move.

:kewlpics:, I would say.

Well MQB refers to a modular platform. It is actually used by VW at large. To be honest Skoda has its buyer base in India, but as you rightly said the deal breaker for Skoda has been the After sales. Looks wise its far better than the present one. The present design looks rather too matured and might appeal to a specific category of buyers. However, this design appear more contemporary and definitely will increase the sales numbers.

I have closely observed Skoda's brand reputation here and for sure know that since VW is trying to curb Skoda's operations it will be not a surprise that most of the upcoming cars of Skoda will flaunt the design platforms given by VW. The involvement of VW in the long run will definitely lead to improvement in Skoda's reputation.

Re: Rendered: 2016 Skoda Superb.

Team,

It is revealed that the next-gen Skoda Superb will be getting a relatively longer wheel base which makes it longer than the VW Passat.

Talking to Autocar UK, Dr. Frank Welsch, Skoda’s board member for technical development, has revealed that the eagerly awaited next gen Skoda Superb will be unveiled in less than six months. Given the timeframe, the 2015 Geneva Motor Show which will take place in March 2015 appears to be the host of the world premiere.

The new Superb will sport a fresh design language that evolved from the VisionC concept unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show this year. The company did not publish tech specifications but said the model would have “new proportions, space, innovative technology, driving dynamics and build quality.”

Skoda Superb will make its world premiere very early next year, at a special event held in Prague mid-February. It will then make its way to the Geneva Motor Show, followed by a market launch across Europe come mid-2015.

Re: Rendered: 2016 Skoda Superb.

Friends,

Here are the partly revealed interiors of the 2016 Skoda Superb.

Complementing the added space inside will be the list of features. For now, according to the report, it’s clear that the vehicle gets better quality materials than before. There’s a larger display panel, which will work on Mirrorlink technology, hence enabling occupants to stream certain apps to the screen from their phone.

Re: Rendered: 2016 Skoda Superb.

The 2015 Skoda Superb has been spied with less camouflage with design cues from Vision C concept. The New Superb will be 20mm longer and 50mm wider and is expected to lose around 75 kg (165 lbs) and will feature a wheelbase elongated by 80mm to grant stellar rear legroom for this class. Trunk capacity will also grow to 625 liters with the rear seats up and 1,760 liters once you fold them down.
The engine lineup will be borrowed from the Passat while the thirsty V6 3.6 FSI of the outgoing model is going to be axed. The available motors will send their power as standard to the front axle but at an additional cost select engines will be optionally paired with an all-wheel drive system.

Re: Rendered: 2016 Skoda Superb.

Skoda sends out another teaser of the 2015 Superb. To debut in Feb 2015.

1369828832043474591.jpg

Skoda has gone for indirect LED lighting for the majority of the taillight section. Also present are three little dash symbols, which will no doubt light up every time to step on the brakes.

Another is that the rake of the rear windshield is much more pronounced than the current generation. We expect the rear seats have been positioned slightly lower, so despite the coupe lines, headroom should be better.

Re: Rendered: 2016 Skoda Superb.

Skoda Superb will move on to Volkswagen flagship MQB platform and will also acquire MDB engine platform. It may be an altogther different experience in terms of ride and handling.

I also noted that Superb had longitudinal mounted engine till 2008 and thereafter moved on to Transverse engine mounting.

Is there anyone who has driven the superb model before 2008 and after that ? Is there any measurable difference in the cars behavior?
