The brand-new SKODA SLAVIA: the next model of the INDIA 2.0
"Second ŠKODA model based on the India-specific MQB-A0-IN platform."
After KUSHAQ, ŠKODA is set to unveil the second stage in its product campaign for the Indian market later this year.
The Czech car manufacturer’s latest model, the SLAVIA, completes their range of sedans and offers generous amounts of space, as is typical of the brand.
The mid-size sedan will be offered with a choice of two powerful and efficient TSI engines, as well as a host of comprehensive safety features which include up to six airbags and numerous assistance systems.
“Following the successful launch of our compact SUV, the KUSHAQ, we are now upping the ante with this latest model, the SLAVIA. I feel confident this saloon will appeal to new customers in India. We are taking the next step towards achieving our ambitious goal of developing ŠKODA AUTO into the leading European car manufacturer in India.” Thomas Schäfer, ŠKODA AUTO CEO
“With the new ŠKODA SLAVIA, we are continuing our model campaign under the INDIA 2.0 project. Following hard on the heels of the KUSHAQ – which is highly appreciated by Indian customers for its robust build, safety, high quality and excellent value for money – the SLAVIA will deliver on all these aspects and set new benchmarks for design and performance in its segment. Built-in India for India and the world, our latest model illustrates the skills and expertise of our local engineers who contributed significantly to its development, in collaboration with the global team.” Gurpratap Boparai, Managing Director of ŠKODA AUTO Volkswagen India Private Limited.
The SLAVIA is 4,541 mm* long, 1,752 mm* wide and has a height of 1,487 mm*; the wheelbase measures 2,651 mm*. While its compact exterior dimensions make it a perfect fit for cities, this brand-new car is also ideally suited for everyday family use.
There is a choice of two powerful and efficient TSI engines for the new ŠKODA SLAVIA. They offer both superior driving performance and high levels of efficiency.
The entry-level 1.0-litre TSI develops 115 PS from its three cylinders, while the four-cylinder 1.5-litre TSI has an output of 150 PS. Both engines transfer their power to the front wheels.
The SLAVIA comes with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard. A six-speed automatic transmission is optional for the 1.0-litre TSI while the 1.5-litre TSI can also be paired with a seven-speed DSG.
The 1.5 TSI is offered with active cylinder technology (ACT), which automatically shuts down two cylinders when the engine load is low. This enhances fuel efficiency.
The brand-new sedan comes with excellent active and passive safety features. Occupants are protected by up to six airbags – for the driver and front passenger, as well as optional front side airbags and head curtain airbags.
With the INDIA 2.0 project, the Group aims to strengthen the presence of ŠKODA and Volkswagen in India for the long run and, depending on market and segment development, achieve a combined market share of 5% by 2025.
