Author’s Note
The Elegance Edition trim for the Skoda Kushaq and Slavia comes at time of increased car sales during the ongoing festive season. The latest special edition makes the MQB-A0-IN-based twins a wee bit more desirable. The new version could even help the carmaker reduce the heat from new arrivals such as the Honda Elevate. Overall, both these models have made a niche for themselves through many likeable attributes. These include potent engines, well-sorted dynamics, ample features and 5-star safety rating fro Global NCAP. My belief is that the advent of the new limited-run version will only enhance the appeal of these Skodas.
