Powering the Skoda Kylaq is a 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine that also powers the Kushaq and Slavia. Transmission options will include a 6-speed manual and an automatic sending power to the front wheels. The small SUV will also get 17-inch alloy wheels on the top trims, while the LED DRLs and headlamps will be standard across the range.
Bookings for the new Kylaq will begin on December 2 while the full price list will be revealed at the Bharat Mobility Expo 2025 on January 17. Deliveries will begin on January 27.
Why is the Skoda Kylaq important?
With the launch of the Skoda Kylaq, the carmaker will be able to return to the sub-10 lakh segment of the Indian passenger vehicle market after a gap of nearly 10 years. The Kylaq will also enable Skoda to dip into the lower-tier markets across India, within which the carmaker has had limited influence till now.
