Skoda has surprised the Indian automotive market by unveiling a new variant of the Kylaq SUV, along with the reveal of the Skoda Kushaq facelift. Coinciding with the first anniversary of the Kylaq in India, the company introduced the Classic Plus trim, positioned above the base Classic variant. This new mid-level option has been confirmed, offering both manual and automatic transmission choices. Skoda aims to make it one of the most accessible sub-4 metre SUVs in the country, featuring a "real automatic transmission."
The Skoda Kylaq Classic Plus will be equipped with several convenience features as standard, including an electric sunroof, rain-sensing wipers, a multi-function steering wheel, auto-dimming IRVM, and cruise control. Additionally, Skoda has announced that the Signature and Signature Plus variants will now include these features as standard. Automatic trims in these versions will also benefit from paddle shifters, offering a sportier driving experience.
