Skoda Kushaq SUV – Launch Details, Expected Features, Engines

The upcoming Skoda Kushaq will be an answer to Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos from the Czech carmaker in India. Based on the Skoda Vision IN concept, the SUV’s production model is scheduled to make its official debut in coming weeks, followed by its launch during 2021 summer. Prior to that, the carmaker has dropped a teaser image showing its silhouette. It will be the first production car to roll out under the brand’s INDIA 2.0 project and underpin the locally developed MQB A0 IN platform.

The company claims that the Kushaq will feature brand’s “timeless design” and bring “a new form of excellence to the game”.  Official details of the new Skoda SUV are yet to be revealed. Though, it’s reported to come with two turbocharged petrol engines – 1.0L, 3-cylinder and 1.5L, 4-cylinder. While the former will be offered with the 6-speed manual and automatic gearbox options, the latter will come with a 7-speed DSG automatic transmission. The 1.0L petrol motor will push out a peak power of 108bhp and 175Nm of torque, and the 1.5L petrol unit will make power worth 147bhp and 250Nm of torque.

Design and styling of the Skoda Kushaq is similar to the global-spec Kamiq. Though, the carmaker has made some India-specific changes including lots of chrome treatment and more upright stance. The production version will retain most of its design elements from the concept such as split projector headlamps with LED DRLs, larger air intakes, angular bumper, pronounced roof rails, plastic cladding all around the body, sunroof and L-shaped LED taillamps with integrated reflectors.
