Skoda is gearing up to introduce a range of exciting vehicles in India. The upcoming Skoda models will cater to both SUV and sedan enthusiasts, offering advanced features, improved performance, and modern designs. With the second-generation Kodiaq set for launch and updates to the Slavia and Kushaq, Skoda is strengthening its presence in the Indian market.
2025 Skoda Kodiaq: Premium SUV with Advanced Features
The 2025 Skoda Kodiaq will arrive in India by April, featuring two trims: Sportline and Laurin & Klement (L&K). The Sportline trim will showcase blacked-out elements on the grille, ORVMs, and D-pillars, while the L&K variant will include premium chrome highlights. Both variants will come with a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, generating 190hp and 320Nm torque, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
Skoda Kodiaq RS: Performance-Oriented SUV Coming Soon
Skoda is also planning to introduce the Kodiaq RS, a high-performance variant that could arrive by the end of 2025. This model is expected to feature 265hp and 400Nm torque, along with upgraded brakes and a sportier design. Unlike the locally assembled standard Kodiaq, the RS version is likely to be a CBU (Completely Built Unit), increasing its price significantly.
Skoda Slavia and Kushaq: Updates for 2025
Skoda’s popular sedan and compact SUV, the Slavia and Kushaq, are also set to receive updates in 2025. These updates may include minor design tweaks, improved technology, and better safety features. The powertrain options will likely remain unchanged, with the 1.0-litre and 1.5-litre TSI petrol engines continuing to power these models.
Skoda Superb and Octavia: Possible Comeback in India
There are strong speculations about Skoda reintroducing the Superb and Octavia in India. The Superb might arrive as a CBU model, while the Octavia RS is expected to target performance car enthusiasts. Skoda could offer these sedans with plug-in hybrid options, aligning with India’s push for greener mobility solutions.
Skoda’s Future Electric Models in India
Skoda is also preparing to enter the EV market in India. While there are no confirmed details, reports suggest that the company might introduce the Enyaq iV, an all-electric SUV, as part of its electrification strategy. More details on this are expected later in 2025.
Conclusion: A Promising Year for Skoda in India
The upcoming Skoda models will strengthen the brand’s position in India by offering SUVs, sedans, and potential EVs. With the Kodiaq launch in April, updates to existing models, and a focus on electrification, 2025 looks like a big year for Skoda enthusiasts.
