The fully imported Superb has more features than the locally assembled model.

The third-generation Skoda Superb, reintroduced in India in April 2023, is currently available at hefty year-end discounts in select cities. Skoda India brought this sedan in April 2024 as a full import, but the imported units were all manufactured in 2023. Priced at Rs 54 lakh (ex-showroom), Skoda had announced that only 100 units of the imported Superb would be available for sale. While this seems like a limited number, some units remain unsold.

Skoda Superb's on road price now near Rs 36 lakh

While Skoda India claims that the third-gen Superb has been sold out at their end, some dealers still have stock of the car, which is being liquidated at discounts ranging from Rs 15-18 lakh off the Rs 54 lakh ex-showroom price. We even found some unregistered Skoda Superb units for sale at multi-brand dealerships in north and central India. Out of the total 100 units imported, around 20-25 unsold cars are still available with such benefits across the country.

Some multi brand showrooms are offering discounts of even higher than Rs 18 lakh

The locally assembled third-gen Superb was discontinued in April 2023. It was priced at around Rs 36 lakh (ex-showroom) when Skoda India decided to pull the plug on the car, thanks to the BS6 Stage 2 emission norms.

With a discount of around Rs 18 lakh, the price of a fully imported Superb becomes close to that of the locally assembled model. The CBU Superb also gets Skoda’s dynamic chassis control, active tyre pressure monitors, nine airbags, and the bigger 9-inch Columbus Infotainment system – features that were not available in the locally assembled car.

At around Rs 36 lakh (ex-showroom) and approximately Rs 38 lakh on the road in most locations, the fully imported Superb with added features is a good deal overall. However, buyers will have to factor in the 2023 manufacturing year, which means the vehicle will be considered two years old once 2025 begins.

Disclaimer: Discounts vary from city to city and are subject to the availability of stock. Please check with your local dealer for exact figures. if the purchase is being made via multi-brand outlets, please check for proper documentation and buy the vehicle at your risk.
