स्कोडा सुपर्ब [2009-2014] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

Exterior

 Could have stretched the hood of the car a bit more for cosmetic looks, but still at this price of around 25 lacs, its a steal. I have just bought a new Superb & can vouch for this machine. The way it commands the road makes me believe the road is hugging this car, not the other way round.

Hats off to this beast. I was thinking of buying a Mercedes E350, but looking at the features this beast had to offer, I pocketed the money.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 All beige thick leather. I compared this with the Merc E250 & the thickness of leather there was much less. Superb again had the best interiors. The leg room tempts me to strtch my legs but my love for driving prevents me. Lotsa room for your long legs!

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Not looking at the feul economy as I enjoy my short drives in Delhi. Engine is a genie when it comes to frequent braking in the city. The triptronic Gears are a marvel. The Mercedes E350 couldnt stand a chance here! I've drove all of them & comparing the size of this big car to other Mercs & beemers, the Superb is definately easy to manouver in the city & doesnt loose on luxry inside. 

The A/c doesnt have memory settings & needs to be adjusted everytime you hit the ignition. If I forget to close the outside air vents which are controlled with pneumatics in this car, then after a few minutes ont he road you can smell the smoke on the road. Skoda should have put a chip in the A/c to remember previous settings atleast! Its available in the cheapest cars & I cant figure out why Skoda didnt put this in their best model. They could have dont better with the A/c. But nevertheless, the A/c is a chiller in the hot days & a warmer in the cold nights & works flawlessly as opposed to other reviews I have seen for the Superb. I think Skoda fixed the A/c issues already, just didnt put in the memory chip there!

Final Words

BUY this car without a thought.

 

Just bought my SUPERB & 'wow' is all I can say for the handling. For 25 Lacs its a steal!A/C settings need to be done everytime you hit the ignition. There shud have been a memory there!

Pros : - Majestic styling a real head turner, decent fuel ecnomy in this segment.Great interiors rear seats are like a 7 star lounge. The automatic transmission is a thrilling experience at over 100 km speed in high ways(especially in india) where you need to slow down due to a cattle crossing the road and then use the paddle shift to get back to the desired.speed, its simply sexy the triptronic.

if your budget is 25lacs  plus simply go for it. Skoda has also achieved the leadership in this D segment in terms of recent sales. This should translate into good after sales servive.

Cons : - A/C is not great especially rear. But do nt mistake it is good enough.At Mahavir in Hyd people are not especially helpful they dont even bother to explain the features. Lot of features even wit the help of manual some of them needs you to break your head to understand. Manual can be written better(i means more simplistic) Some accessories like the ice box etc.. is missing but the same is part of the car in the official skoda site.
