Striking Design – Inside and Out
The Skoda Kushaq features the carmaker’s latest design language characterized by clean lines and minimalist styling elements. At the front, the split headlamp setup with integrated LED DRLs gives it a bold look. Thebutterfly grille with vertical slats and prominent Skoda badging add to the premium appeal.
In profile, the coupe-like sloping roofline, strong shoulder line and 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels give the Kushaq an athletic stance. At the rear, the LED tail lamps with crystalline detailing look futuristic while dual exhaust tips round off the sporty styling.
Step inside, and you are greeted by an all-black cabin with premium leatherette upholstery. The free-standing 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system dominates the dash. It offers wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity along with inbuilt navigation and access to connected car tech.
Other highlights of the well-laid out cabin include a 2-spoke steering wheel, digital driver’s display, electric sunroof, automatic climate control, ventilated front seats, ambient lighting and more. The rear seats offer good legroom and headroom despite the sloping roofline. Boot space is generous at 385 litres.
Powerful Performance, Frugal Efficiency
The Skoda Kushaq is available with two BS6-compliant TSI petrol engines – a 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbo-petrol (115PS/178Nm) mated to a 6-speed manual or 6-speed torque converter automatic. The bigger 1.5-litre 4-cylinder turbo-petrol develops 150PS and 250Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic.
The Kushaq offers an engaging drive experience with smooth power delivery and eager acceleration. The smaller 1.0-litre engine offers adequate poke for city usage while the larger 1.5-litre motor feels more effortless on the highway. The DSG gearbox provides quicker shifts and keeps the engine on the boil for enthusiastic driving.
ARAI-certified fuel efficiency stands at 19.76kmpl for manual versions and 18.72kmpl for automatic variants which is quite respectable for the segment.
