Hi, since you mentioned BS6.2. have they mentioned anywhere in brochure or is there any way to identify that they are providing BS6.2 compliant cars?

Are they E20 ready as well? May be you can check the info under the fuel tank cap as well when doing PDI.
I have not been able to find any indication from VW/Skoda that they have started producing BS6.2 and E20 compliant models.

If the discount is only around 35k, try to make sure that they include 4 Year SMP and 6 Years Extended Warranty for free. Haggle as much as possible. Their sales have dropped in the last 2-3 months, so they should be open to more discounts.

As for PDI, do not forget to check the driver side window motor extensively.
I had already asked for discounts alongwith the free EW and SMP, but they said it was only for '22 models and not for '23. I will ask again tomorrow, and if they're unwilling I'll leave it at that.

I'll also check the driver side window motor, thanks for the heads up.

I'll ask them tomorrow if there is any way to identify BS6.2 compliance. The manager did told me that all the new units arriving at showroom were BS6.2 compliant. I'll check the fuel tank cap as well.

This doesn't include the 15k exchange bonus for my old Alto.

From the VIN number, the model is February '23 manufactured. Will do PDI today or tomorrow, and will probably get it by next week after registration.
The ex-showroom price that is mentioned in this quote i.e. 13,19,000 is the same as that of the BS6 model. Are you sure it's a BS6.2 model?
The quote I got from my dealer for the BS 6.2 model is 13,34,000, a 15k hike form the BS 6 model. It will be really helpful if you could clarify the same.

Thanks in advance

This article states that VW's RDE compliant engines are also E20 compliant. I found another article from Feb'23 that talks about Skoda's E20 compliance, but it's vague on the immediate timeline.

I have seen both versions and checked the fuel lid stickers. E20 stickers are not there present even for vehicles manufactured in Jan 2023.

Yes, somebody in a different thread has mentioned that it's applicable for cars manufactured March onwards.

Yes, it was a miscommunication with the showroom manager, it's not BS6.2 compliant, though it is a February '23 manufactured unit. There is no mention of E20 on the fuel lid:

Haggled a bit with the sales team and managed to procure 20k worth of extra accessories for free, so I'm satisfied with that. Will receive her next week around Wednesday... Can't wait, soo excited <3

Re: Skoda Kushaq Review

One of my friends booked Kushaq Ambition MT today. There was very little discount, around 20k that too on insurance. We are still pushing them for more discount on Insurance and my friend is need of additional accessories like couple of chrome fitments and few more. Asked them to give additional accessories as complimentary. He will be getting BS6 Ph2 at the cost of BS6 ph1. Not sure about the exact price hike which is about to be implemented next week.

Re: Skoda Kushaq Review

Hello everyone,

I have the following updates regarding the new 2023 BS 6 Phase 2 Kushaq so sharing the same with fellow TeamBhpians:

1. The ex-showroom prices were silently increased on 21.3.2023 by Skoda but as per my sources ar different dealerships, the dealerships requested Skoda to let them sell the new BS6.2 models on the old ex-showroom prices till 31st March 2023. Attaching the new price list for reference.

2. As clear from the new price list and as already mentioned above in the previous post, a new model named Onyx has also been launched.

3. New BS6.2 models have already reached dealerships and the deliveries have begun. I am happy to confirm that these models are E20 fuel compatible. Attaching the picture of the fuel lid from new Kushaq Ambition 1.0 MT BS6.2.

Re: Skoda Kushaq Review

Hello everyone, got the power window update done during the first service. However, the issue still persists. Although, less frequent now.

Anyone else facing the same issue post the power window software update?
