Follow us onIn a segment as fiercely contested as sub-4-metre SUVs, standing out is no easy task. Yet, the Skoda Kylaq manages to do just that. With a bold design, feature-packed interiors, and a price point that epitomises value, the Kylaq is every bit the game-changer Skoda intended it to be. Despite being Skoda’s first foray into the sub-4-metre segment, the Kylaq is poised to be a game changer in the Indian market.
Design That Turns Heads
At first glance, the Kylaq’s modern design language immediately catches the eye. Its sharp LED headlamps, bold grille, and clean lines lend it a confident stance, while its compact dimensions make it a perfect companion for city streets. But this beauty isn’t just skin-deep.
Power Meets Practicality
Under the bonnet lies Skoda’s punchy 1.0-litre TSI engine, paired with a refined torque converter automatic gearbox. This powertrain delivers an exhilarating drive, whether you’re zipping through city traffic or cruising on the open road.
In the past, owning a Skoda in India was thought of as an expensive affair. However, this time around, and adding to the Kylaq’s allure is its remarkable cost of ownership. For the first 33,333 customers, the Kylaq offers unbeatable running costs of just ₹0.24 per kilometre for the first 5 years – a testament to Skoda’s confidence in the Kylaq’s build quality and commitment to delivering long-term value.
A Safe Step Forward
Safety has always been a cornerstone of Skoda’s DNA, and the Kylaq is no exception. With six airbags and over 25 safety features as standard right from the base classic model, the Kylaq sets a new benchmark in its class. From stability control to rear parking sensors, the Kylaq ensures peace of mind on every journey.
Step inside, and the Kylaq continues to impress. Ambient lighting adds a premium touch to its smartly designed cabin, while 446 litres of boot space ensure ample room for weekend getaways. Every inch of the interior is tailored for comfort and convenience.
Built on Proven Ground
Built on the MQB-A0-IN platform, the Kylaq is Skoda’s third made-for-India product, joining the Kushaq and Slavia. Engineered to tackle India’s unique road conditions with ease, it is truly a compact SUV that feels at home, wherever you take it. With the Kylaq, Skoda turns a new leaf in India while still staying true to its legacy. The Czech giant has now established itself as a company that understands the Indian market.
The Skoda Kylaq is more than just a new contender; it is the result of thoughtful engineering, a keen understanding of India’s diverse needs, and a promise of unmatched value. It speaks to a generation that refuses to compromise – a car that doesn’t just meet expectations but raises the bar entirely. For those who seek style, safety, and substance in one elegant yet affordable package, the Kylaq is the answer. This isn’t just a car for the present; it’s a companion you’ll cherish for years to come.
