The Skoda Superb had already received a mid-life refresh back in May 2020 with subtle styling updates and feature additions. Well Skoda has kicked off 2021 by giving the Superb even more features on offer. As a result, the sedan has also received a price hike upto Rs 2 lakh on both its SportLine and Laurin andamp; Klement variants. Here's the updated pricing:

Variants	Old Prices	New Prices	Difference
Sportline	Rs 30 lakh	Rs 32 lakh	Rs 2 lakh
Laurin andamp; Klement	Rs 33 lakh	Rs 35 lakh	Rs 2 lakh

What's new for the Superb starts off up front, featuring new adaptive LED headlamps with LED DRLs, illuminated LED eyelashes and LED turn indicators as standard on all variants. The adaptive headlights get city, inter-city, motorway, and rain modes. An interesting addition to the sedan is a 'coming / leaving home' headlamp function. This function means that the lights are switched on when you unlock your car via the remote control. So this helps illuminate the way to and from your front door, whenever you arrive or set off in the dark.

Heading inside, the Laurin andamp; Klement variant features a new two spoke steering wheel design, whereas the SportLine variant gets a new three spoke flat bottom SuperSport multifunction steering wheel with paddle shifts. The other feature additions include an updated UI for the 8-inch touchscreen unit, wireless charging, wireless Android Auto and Apple Car Play, and Type-C USB ports. For the Laurin andamp; Klement variant a 360-degree camera with park assist has been added. Moreover, the virtual cockpit (digital instrument cluster) that was exclusive to the Sportline variant, is now standard on all variants.

Mechanically, the Superb sedan remains as is, powered by a 2.0-litre TSI petrol engine that develops 190PS of power and 320Nm of torque. Transmission duties will be taken care of by a 7-speed DSG gearbox.

As things stand, the Skoda Superb only has the , to contend with. But the Volkswagen Passat could make a comeback as it has been spotted, testing in the country.
