  • Skoda Superb qualifies as finalist for 2016 World Car of the Year

    The Skoda Superb could add to its incredible haul of industry accolades, having qualified for the final of the prestigious 2016 World Car of the Year title.


    The all new Skoda Superb's inclusion in the World Car of the Year award 10-car finalist list marks only the second time a Skoda has been included in the latter stages of the judging process. It was 2014 when the Octavia managed the same feat. 

    Since its introduction to the modern era lineup in 2001, Skoda's flagship model has become the benchmark car for space and comfort, with no other sector rival able to match its passenger and load carrying ability. The all new version builds on this legacy, with improvements in all key areas.

    As befits a car at the top of the Skoda range, the new Superb is brimming with the latest technology and Skoda's acclaimed Simply Clever features. It is also considerably more efficient thanks to a new range of turbocharged engines that deliver exceptional fuel economy and low CO2 emissions and a kerb weight up to 75kg lighter than its predecessor.

    The Superb also excels on the safety front, and is available with Blind spot detection, Rear traffic alert, third generation Park assist and Traffic jam assist. Publicly unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in 2015, the Superb went on sale in the U.K. in both Hatchback and Estate forms last September.
