Or to further distance themselves from the recently launched VW Passat?
Interesting! Superb down to 20. Then, Lolla should come down to 15 and Lolla vRS priced around 17:Cheering:.
The skoda india website
home is the most disorganized of all auto manufacvturers' websites in India.
Does not give you consistent data on dimensions, variants etc.
No prices, no way to book a TD online.....
The reason for this post (off-topic) is - very little mentioned about the "Superb" engines.
If Laura diesel engine is Pumpe Duse, should the customer assume that the V6 diesel in Superb is also Pumpe Duse?
The data for each model on the website has different levels of details!!!

Lolla !
Hialrious lol: Interesting name ,liked it....
22L is not bad for a 2.5L V6 Diesel with 160BHp, i am sure Peter has his lil kit for that too, imagine what happens when that goes in :D
Skoda is one of those companies who go crazy introducing variants and Ford is another one.
Skoda Octavia, Octavia Limited Edition, Anniversary Edition, L&K, Rider
Now Laura /Lolla :)
now what have they removed for the two lakh? Stepney? the xenon lamp?
@ anandpadhye - The current Superb diesel is the old generation TDi mill AFAIK.
@ Amey - Laura was renamed Lolla by someone else on the forum. I just use this term as I find the real one offensive:p.
The one thing i hate about Skoda is their models, i mean all of them look the same! The Superb doesn't look any diffrent than the Octavia now whats the point in buying the Superb, no one will ever know the difference. :confused:
Agreed that they look similar...but drive each of the variants & yo WILL feel the difference - a large difference !!! :)
Cheers
Yah, agreed the engines are good but people who go for Superb do want to stand apart from the crowd and Skoda doesn't offer that for the class difference people are paying for. I feel they must get rid of that silly looking grill,lol. I mean it looked good the first time it came to India but then too much of the same thing is down right boring. They should either loss the grill or improvise like Mercedes and at least play with the design which looks too much of the same thing.

Do you hate the Porsche too?:Shockked: The holy grail of motoring for many
I knew i must have added the foot note that Skoda is not a Porsche. Porsches comes from a rich past and designer who revolutionized the European automobile Industry, its out of that respect for his genius that people don't change Ferdinand's original design. Now I don't know about the Skoda having any such roots in design, they may be a old company but they have no design that really created a cult that is worth sticking to and designing around its original structure like the Mustang, Porsche or the Mercedes. I thought it was all about staying true to its original design that struck a cord with one generation emotionally and people tried to keep that alive for the coming generations and not some Pseudo marketing gimmick for the sake of looking original and classy.
I am not saying they don't have the right to maintain their design but for an Indian customer for whom 20laks is a big deal we like to see some difference that puts it apart from other cars for the dow we pay.

i think its a good move. they will be present right from 15 lacs (with the laura elegance) to 26 lacs (top of line ) segment.
and another think moster_bhp is skoda is not meant for customers like you (no offences) but for more intrinsic value seekers. :)
cheers.
lol, no offense taken but i have Skoda at home. Problem is i cant go for another model because it looks the same, i guess this topic can be understood only by people who own a Skoda and not people like you who just stare at it from a distance. lol.
