infotainment system with integrated WiFi, among other.
The
top-of-the-range Laurin & Klement, priced from £ 35,240, is the most
luxurious variant, with leather upholstery, front ventilated and heated seats,
rear heated seats, LED interior light pack, tri-zone climate control, heated

Skoda’s flagship
model is the first model in the company to adopt full LED Matrix headlights,
complimented by a restyled front grille and a new front bumper that also makes
it overall longer by 8 mm to 4,869 mm. Wheelbase,
width and height remain the same as before. The new Predictive Cruise Control
is also offered for the first time.
The 2020 Skoda
Superb will be offered with two petrol and two diesel engines from launch in
the UK, ranging from 118 hp for the 1.6 TDI to 268 hp for the
most powerful 2.0 TSI. Selected models are also offered with the optional
seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions and all-wheel drive.
Later this year,
Skoda will offer the 2020 Superb with the 147 hp 1.5 TSI and 2.0 TDI engines
while early in 2020 the range will welcome the Superb iV plug-in hybrid that
combines a 153 hp 1.4 TSI engine with a 114 hp electric motor. Skoda
promises that the plug-in hybrid Superb iV will offer sub-40g of CO2 emissions,
along with an all-electric range of up to 54 km.
