Skoda has launched new versions of the Slavia Sedan and Kushaq SUV in India. The Czech automaker has added a new variant called Elegance for the sedan and SUV. This new variant of Kushaq Elegance is available at an initial price of INR 18.31 lakh (ex-showroom), and for the automatic version, the price goes up to INR 19.51 lakh. The Slavia Elegance is priced at INR 17.52 lakh (ex-showroom), and its automatic version costs INR 18.92 lakh (ex-showroom).

The new Kushaq and Slavia Elegance variants are wrapped in an all-black color theme. To make their appearance different from the outgoing models, both of these variants get new cosmetic enhancements such as puddle lamps, chrome accents on the grille, tailgate, dual-tone alloy wheels, door moldings, and unique Elegance badging on the B-pillars and steering wheel. Kushaq Elegance also gets 17-inch Vega alloy wheels, which were also available in the Monte Carlo variant of this midsize SUV.

The Kushaq and Slavia Elegance will be powered by Skoda’s 150-hp, 1.5-liter TSI turbo-petrol engine. However, buyers can select between the six-speed manual and the seven-speed DCT gearboxes. Both the Elegance variants will come paired with both manual and DSG transmission options.

The Skoda Slavia Elegance, on the other hand, comes with interior changes, including door sill scuff plates and updated mats. Both variants get aluminum pedals. The features list in both new editions remains the same, incorporating a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a six-speaker plus subwoofer sound system, and a digital instrument cluster.

Besides the standard variants, Skoda already offers the Kushaq and Slavia with various special edition models, such as the Onyx edition, matte edition, Lava Blue, and Monte Carlo. Currently, the Slavia Sedan and Kushaq SUV are two of the safest cars available in the Indian market. Both these editions have secured a five-star rating at the Global NCAP.
