SKODA SUPERB

(June - July 2008)

The SkodaSuperb has retained the tradition initiated by their designers and engineers since 1934. This car had amazed everybody with its dimensions. Complete with elegant and luxurious interiors, technical superiority and a powerful engine. More than 60 years later, Skoda Auto continues to offer a tribute to its predecessor, with the SkodaSuperb 2007.

The unmistakable face of Skoda. It's refined appearance, the balanced proportion of the classic three-sectional body with a gradually receding back are part of it's timeless design- a guarantee that the car will not lose its active appearance for a long time.

The rear doors are the largest that have ever been used on a Skoda vehicle. The minimum ground clearence is ideal, making getting in and out of the vehicle effortless. The windows glasses are tinted; the windscreen is decorated with a green strip to protect it against sunlight. The light alloy wheels also give the vehicle a predatory and attractive appearance.

The elegant, spacious, thoughtfully designed and extremely comfortable interior meets the requirements of both the driver as well as the passenger.

Gently floor the pedal into the carpet and the Superb will cross the 100kph mark in 9.4 seconds with ease. Powered by a V6 motor that generates 190bhp, it remains steady and handles like a dream even at speeds up to 200kph.

The 163bhp diesel engine on the other hand is as smooth as any petrol engine. It is among the most refined diesel engines and extremely responsive. Minimum turbo lag and strong mid-range power make driving in stop-start traffic conditions easy. The fuel consumption is among the best in its class. An astounding 11.97kpl on the highway.
