Between Red and Blue, which one is a better looking colour as per your personal preference?

some lowering springs, a good stage 2 ecu and tcu tune , valvetronic exaust , aftermarket air-intake and a some good bigger set of wheels . perfect build.

You do realise that the DQ200 can only support a maximum of 250NM Torque which the engine tune is already calibrated to, right?. That pretty much rules out the Stage 2 ecu remap 😁 and the aftermarket air intake unless its a stock replacement filter. Lowering springs with a good set of dampers and better wheels and tires should pretty much do the trick; Valvetronic exhaust is for ricers, lets spare the Slavia DSG, shall we?

Skoda just made the segment more interesting. Good to see that Skoda is launching new cars..🔥🔥. Quality, design,safety..🔥

The 1.0l variant is more preffered in my opinion because of its power and the gearbox,the space and features of comfort and convenience The big part of this car is the looks and the sharp road presence gives a upmarket feels to it.At last I can say I am in love with this car 😍😍

Pricing of Slavia is perfect and will pull in lot many customers. I think Skoda quickly learned from the pricing of Octavia which was somewhat higher than what it has to offer.

Octavia is real Skoda but not slavia. In Octavia you will get the feelings of heaviness of the parts and the original built quality and we can not easily compare with slavia. The reason of price difference is mentioned in my other comment.

DSG not perfect choice for start stop traffic, 1.0 with Torque converter automatic would be more reliable. Unless this traffic reason is just for telling the family, but really what you want is to be a Schumacher of the expressway, for pure driving fun DSG is the gearbox. Driving Skoda Rapid DSG since 2015, puts a smile on my face everytime I press the throttle and I forget the Rs 65000 paid for mechatronics replacement of the gearbox.

Škoda brought 1.5 TSI where as Civic and Elantra is discontinued. It is having open run. Hope, Škoda runs like anything and give flip to segment.

Skoda are in a class of their own at the moment. Every car they launch is a masterpiece.

Beast of an engine! High hopes of sustained revival for the sedan lovers now. Some external visual differentiator for 1.0 vs 1.5 should have been offered though.

this car sure has ignited my long dying love for sedans. But from here, our nearest showroom is 500 km away. long distance admiration it be. :)

Looking forward to buy this when it hits used car market

A little lowered Susp and Single stage ECU remap and a Wider alloys A perfect machines

After so many years you are still the best anchor. I have a daily run of 60 to 70 km city traffic drive what would you suggestion to purchase 1litre or 1.5 ltr ? Which one is more mileage friendly

go for 1.5 manual , as its 4 cylinders which switches off at constant speed hence more mileage .

@akshaydhanorkar

2 жыл бұрын

Actually, 1.5L will give you more milage if you drive it sedately...because of cylinder deactivation technology...also on highways at cruising speed like @100 KMph, 1.5 will run more relaxed compared to 1.0L because it doesn't have to work that hard like 1.0L, and if you have 3-4 passengers in the car, then the difference will be even more...! So you might get better fuel efficiency in 1.5L again...!

Sedans should work on adjustable air suspension sort of innovations for rough roads but also to cruise in highways low slung. the slavia 1.5 looks promising.

We would really like to see a drag race between Skoda rapid tsi and skoda slavia. Please make a video of that.

It does come at a price but it does brings back to old memories of 164bhp chevy cruze

Given, the prices, does it have disc brakes on all 4 wheels? And Skoda should offer this car in multiple variants and not just the top trim.

Oh wow. I really wanna get this 1.5 TSI, so waiting for that promotion desperately, lol. 2 concerns: 1. Got to get TDs of both the manual and DSG. The launch control in DSG concerns me, because my Venue iMT also has this issue where it won't rev beyond 1500 rpm during launch. That's a common problem with clutch wear control by manufacturers. 2. Have always looked away from sedans because of the low GC, but got to check it out in person to believe it.

I own Skoda rapid montecarlo. I checked this vehicle in person on launching date. I just felt it may be a value for money but the quantity is not as good as real Skoda parts....all are light weight body part of Indian made. You will never get the Skoda feelings in this vehicle.

The review we all have been waiting for!

I'm not sure what to make of the price. I mean for less than 1 lakh more you can get the Hyundai Elantra which being a segment above, is bigger, more spacious and as powerful as the Slavia 1.5.

Kindly check on hills with ground clearance, bad roads. Eagerly waiting. 🙏

I am just sad that I bought Nexon in November, I so would have loved to own slavia 😭

Yup I saw folks were thinking about outrun this one by the honda ... 😑😑

Just imagine a TATA sedan 😍

Driver's delight

Sedan especially newly launched nowadays have to try too hard to establish themselves in the market,well it’s the SUV era.

It's like the first gen vrs

Not sure how many Indian buyers would shell upwards of INR 22 lacs on this sedan when Harrier and Safari and other so called soft SUVs are in the same price bracket. Skoda could have made the pricing more attractive. I was really gunning for 1.5 ltr for myself but the pricing has instantly made me go away from Slavia and look for other options. After driving Honda City Automatic, a person like me would always prefer a faster 4 cylinder engine.

The beeping is a regulatory requirement for new cars.The speed warning system is to beep an alert every 60sec above 80kph, and then continuously beep at speeds above 120kph. The Hyundai are nowhere as stable and confidence inspiring at high speeds.
