Having undergone a comprehensive facelift, both Hatch and Estate versions offer a fresh and attractive design, an upgraded interior and significantly improved fuel economy and CO2 emissions.

Milton Keynes, 9th May 2013 – ŠKODA has revealed UK price and specification details for its updated Superb flagship model.

On sale in the UK from the 17th July 2013, prices for the facelift Superb range start at just £18,555 (OTR) for the 1.4-litre TSI 125PS S Hatch. The top-of-the-range Laurin & Klement Estate model costs £32,455 (OTR) when paired with the 2.0 TDI CR 170PS DFP engine, 4x4 and 6spd Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG). Diesel versions start from £19,760 (OTR). The premium for the Estate over its hatch sibling is £1,125.

The Superb facelift will be available in the UK with six advanced engine options: three petrol and three diesel. Power outputs range from 105PS (1.6 TDI CR) to 260PS for the 3.6 V6 model.

Engines are up to 19% more economical than the previous generation units, and a fuel-efficient GreenLine version offers emissions of just 109g/km.

The fleet sector will make a significant contribution to Superb sales, and with BiK starting at just 16%, and more rear legroom than most prestige cars, the Superb’s appeal is obvious.

Alasdair Stewart, Brand Director for ŠKODA UK, commented: “The Superb continues ŠKODA’s tradition of offering a huge amount of space, engineering excellence and great value for money”.

“Since its launch 12 years ago, the Superb has been lauded for its versatility, comfort and equipment. This comprehensive facelift builds on these and we are confident that the excellent improvements to fuel consumption and C02 will appeal to both fleet and private customers”.
