Skoda's Kushaq and Slavia style return with 10-Inch touchscreens
Delhi : Skoda Kushaq and Slavia have been returned with their bigger 10-inch 'Skoda Play' touchscreens, which were replaced with a smaller 8-inch version in May 2022 owing to a semiconductor shortage at the time. It has, however, returned only on the top-spec Style variations of both models; before, it was also available on the mid-spec Ambition variants.
Skoda Slavia infotainment screen, Kushaq
Because to the bigger 10-inch screen, wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a subwoofer have returned to the Style versions of the Kushaq and Slavia, as have the Skoda Play applications. The bigger screen employs the most up-to-date software and UI, but being a completely touch unit, it lacks the convenience of a rotary dial to change the volume and a few touch-based shortcut buttons that were accessible on the 8.0-inch unit's bezel.
Please keep in mind that the 10-inch screen will also be available on the Kushaq Monte Carlo and Slavia Matte Edition variations, while the mid-spec Ambition models will retain the 8.0-inch screen on both the Kushaq and the Slavia. Skoda has also deleted the dongle connectivity function from both cars' Ambition versions. Skoda has upgraded the Kushaq and Slavia Style, Monte Carlo, and Matte Edition models with powered front seats and ambient footwell lights.
Skoda Kushaq now has new alloy wheels.
Another unnoticed change is that the Kushaq now has a single-tone, silver 17-inch alloy wheel design on the top-spec Style trim, replacing the dual-tone, dual five-spoke gun metal alloys. The new wheels resemble those supplied with the Volkswagen Tiguan, however the latter is a size larger.
Prices for Skoda Slavia and Kushaq
Prices for the Slavia after these modifications range between Rs 10.89 lakh and Rs 16.72 lakh for the 1.0 TSI and 1.5 TSI models, respectively. Meanwhile, pricing for the 1.0 TSI and 1.5 TSI variants of the Kushaq vary from Rs 10.89 lakh to Rs 18.41 lakh and Rs 15.17 lakh to Rs 20 lakh, respectively.
