New Skoda Kylaq Variant Launching Soon – More Affordable Than Ever.

Hey friends, do you know that Skoda Kylaq took Skoda India from 11th to 7th position in the top-10 automakers list after its launch?

40,000+ units have been sold in 2023 alone! Now, Skoda has also planned to launch a new mid-spec variant to give further boost to its success.

So, what will be special in the new Skoda Kylaq variant? Price is low, features are compact - but will there be any compromise?

Let's understand in full detail about this new sensation.

New Skoda Kylaq Variant Engine & Performance.

There will be no mechanical changes in the new Skoda Kylaq variant. It will also come with the same 1.0L TSI petrol engine that generates a maximum power of 115bhp and 178Nm of torque.

You will get the option of both manual and automatic gearboxes. Skoda claims that the Kylaq does 0- 100 kmph in just 10.5 seconds, which is considered quite quick for this segment. So, performance lovers – good news, no compromises here!

Features: What You’ll Get & What You Might Miss.

In the new Skoda Kylaq variant, you will get all the features of the Classic variant, but some high-end features of the Signature will be skipped. Let us see the features of the base variant

Which will be included:

• Analog dials with 3.5-inch MID
• Tilt and telescopic steering adjust
• All passenger adjustable headrests
• Powered wing mirrors
• Auto engine start-stop
• Manual AC and power windows
• Front center armrest, 2 tweeters, and fabric seats
• 12V front charging socket
• 6 airbags, ESC, traction control, ABS with EBD
• ISOFIX anchors & manual day/night IRVM
• Rear parking sensors & three-point seat belts for all passengers
• LED headlamps with DRLs, LED tail-lamps
• 16-inch steel wheels with covers
• Roof rails & 15-inch spare wheel

All these features will also be included in the mid-spec variant after being uplifted from the base variant – but not in the Signature variant, like a larger touchscreen, connected tech, or premium audio system. Features like these may be absent.

Market Strategy: Smart Move By Skoda?

This strategic move by Skoda clearly shows that they want to make their portfolio more accessible to achieve the 75,000 – 1 lakh units annual sales target.

The new Skoda Kylaq will become a “sweet spot” for those who are budget-conscious and want an experience beyond the basics. Will this variant challenge the new competition in the compact SUV segment? Looks like yes!

Launch Plans: New Variant Coming Sooner Than Expected?

This new variant has not been officially announced yet, but according to the expected timeline, it could be available in showrooms by the end of 2025.

This variant will be positioned between the base “Classic” and the top “Signature” variant – that is, here you will get a balanced combo of both.

For those who want to go a little above the entry-level features but want to avoid the price of a high-end variant, the new Skoda Kylaq variant can be a perfect fit.

New Skoda Kylaq Variant Price: Most Affordable Mid-Spec Option Yet?

The current Skoda Kylaq price range is between ₹ 8.25 lakh and ₹ 13.99 lakh (ex-showroom). The upcoming variant will be priced somewhere in between these two extremes, i.e, the expected price could be around ₹ 10 lakh.

With this pricing, this variant could become a solid value-for-money option in the market, especially for buyers who want a balance between features and budget.

Worth the Wait? Absolutely.

If you are looking for a stylish, feature-loaded, and performance-packed compact SUV that balances the budget, then the New Skoda Kylaq Variant is worth waiting for. Feature-rich, safe, and top in performance – are you ready for this new option? Then weigh it a little.
