Skoda Kylaq, Slavia, Kushaq Black Edition: What to expect
The teaser reveals all the three India made models in a black paint shade with only their silhouettes visible. Under closer observation, the Kushaq’s rear is visible, having a fine black finish along with blacked-out ‘Skoda’ emblems.
Hints from the teaser point towards a unified dark-themed approach for all three cars. The styling overhaul is likely to feature a glossy black paint job accompanied by blacked-out elements like the front grille, alloy wheels, and badges. Red brake calipers and red door trim accents are expected to be there as sporty touches to an otherwise monochromatic look. The same design language will probably be shared by Slavia, Kushaq, and Kylaq.
The teaser suggests these updates will only be limited to the aesthetics, without changing the mechanical aspects. The engines and transmissions should remain the same as the current models.
