Skoda’s cooking up a new compact SUV, set to hit the streets in 2025. This little guy was recently spotted out and about in its testing camouflage, and we’ve got the scoop!
It’s going to be the most affordable Skoda SUV in India, and it’s designed to be a nimble city slicker. Word on the street is that it might be a tad smaller inside than its bigger siblings, but that’s a small price to pay for its zippy handling. Plus, it’s still got that trusty 115 HP engine that Skoda’s known for.
Leaked photos reveal some cool design changes, like a shorter rear door and a fresh new look that’s totally Skoda. It’s also been trimmed down a bit to be more fuel-efficient and keep the price tag down.
Inside, get ready to be wowed! We’re hearing rumors of even more techy goodies than you’d find in the Kushaq or Slavia. Think 360-degree cameras and fancy driver-assist features.
Under the hood, you’ll find a 1.0-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine paired with either a manual or automatic transmission.
How much will this little wonder cost? Rumor has it that it’ll be priced somewhere between 9 and 14 lakhs (before taxes). That means it’s going to be a fierce competitor for the Hyundai Venue, Maruti Brezza, Kia Sonet, Tata Nexon, and Mahindra XUV 3XO.
Skoda’s Game-Changer: Diving into the Details of the New Compact SUV
Skoda, the Czech carmaker known for its awesome mix of practicality and European style, is about to make a splash in the Indian compact SUV market. Their latest creation, recently caught in disguise while being tested, has everyone buzzing.
The Design: Small but Stylish
While it definitely looks like part of the Skoda family (think Kushaq and Slavia), this new SUV has some unique design twists. The most obvious is its shorter wheelbase, which is designed to make it super easy to maneuver in those crazy city streets. But that’s not all!
Spy photos have also revealed a shorter back door, a refreshed body design, and even shorter overhangs (the bits that stick out at the front and back). These tweaks give the SUV a distinct personality while still keeping that classic Skoda vibe. The smaller size also means it’ll likely be more fuel-efficient and easier on your wallet.

The Interior: Tech and Comfort
Skoda knows how to make a car’s interior both comfy and functional. This new SUV is rumored to be even better than the Kushaq and Slavia, packed with cool tech and high-end features. While we don’t have all the details yet, whispers suggest it could come with a 360-degree camera and a bunch of fancy driver-assist systems.
Imagine a spacious interior with enough room for five people and all your gear, plus Skoda’s signature comfy seats and intuitive controls. The cabin is expected to be decked out with premium materials and clever design touches, making every ride a pleasure.
The Engine: Small but Mighty
Don’t let the small size fool you – this SUV packs a punch! It’s got the same 1.0-liter TSI turbocharged engine as the Kushaq and Slavia, which means you’ll get 115 horsepower and a fun driving experience. Choose between a smooth-shifting manual transmission or a convenient automatic, depending on your preference.
We’re still waiting on official performance numbers, but the fact that it’s lighter than its bigger siblings suggests it could be quite zippy and fuel-efficient. Skoda engineers have likely tweaked the suspension and steering to make it a joy to drive, both in the city and on the open road.

The Price: A Bargain You Can’t Resist
The best part? This awesome compact SUV is expected to be priced between 9 and 14 lakhs (before taxes). That makes it a seriously good deal, especially considering all the cool features and stylish design you’ll get. It’s going to be a tough competitor for other popular models like the Hyundai Venue, Maruti Brezza, Kia Sonet, Tata Nexon, and Mahindra XUV 3XO.
