Skoda Superb Overview
The current Superb comes with engines ranging from a 1.4 to a 3.6 litre and has a fuel economy ranging from 28.0mpg to 64.0mpg.
The Skoda Superb exterior design is modest rather than flashy so much so that the car may seem a little plain. It will take a close look to notice the car’s extra length. The Superb is aging slowly and should enjoy high resale values.
Cheaper Superbs represent good bargains for buyers but the more costly models offer even better value. They are loaded down with kit and luxurious creature comforts. Many have suggested that Skoda’s build quality has surpassed that of Volkswagen.
Background
The original Superb was first produced in 1934 and was the first car to be used by high ranking military officials in the Second World War. It ran from 1934 to 1942 and a second model was produced from 1946 to 1949.
The Superb we are familiar with was introduced in 2001 and is essentially a rebadged version of the Lingyu model of the Volkswagen Passat. The Superb received a facelift in 2006 which was mainly concerned with cosmetics and styling, in order to bring the Superb’s image up to speeds with other Skoda models such as the Octavia.
The third generation Skoda Superb arrived in 2008 and is based on the latest A5 Octavia platform. It is a five door saloon/hatch back which was made available as an estate in 2009. There are a number of petrol and diesel engines to choose from as well as a range of trim levels; in the UK the buyer can choose from the ‘S’, ‘SE’, Elegance’ and ‘Greenline’ trim levels.
Summary
The Skoda Superb isn't a bargain basement alternative to better quality executive models. It's a less expensive alternative that is just as functional, comfortable and practical as the more expensive rival brands.
