Skoda Auto India Slavia has released the first official design sketch of the compact sedan, which is set to debut on November 18, 2021.

The Skoda Slavia will be the Czech carmaker’s second product under the India 2.0 project.
Two design sketches released by the automaker give us a sense of what the car will look like. Up front, the sedan gets the brand’s signature hexagonal grille, which is surrounded by sharply designed LED headlights with L-shaped LED DRLs. The sketch also gives us a glimpse of the car’s coupe-style silhouette, longer wheelbase, alloy wheels as well as the company badging on the front wings. The second sketch also gives us an idea of the rear of the car. It gets the signature C-shaped LED tail lamps which are bifurcated, further extending across the boot lid. The roofline gently slopes back which merges into the boot lid.
The upcoming Skoda Slavia will be offered as a replacement for the Rapid. In fact, the brand has already terminated the production of the Rapid compact sedan at its Pune facility. Dimensionally, Slavia measures 4541 mm in length, 1752 mm in width and 1487 mm in height. The wheelbase of the sedan is 2651 mm.

Mechanically, the Slavia would share its powertrain with the Kushak. It will be powered by two turbocharged petrol engines – 1.0-litre TSI and 1.5-litre TSI. While the first makes 113 bhp and 175 Nm of peak torque, the latter is good for 148 bhp and 250 Nm of power figure. Transmission options include a 6-speed manual gearbox as standard, while a 6-speed automatic torque converter and 7-speed DSG automatic will be available as options. The larger 1.5-litre motor will also get Active Cylinder Technology (ACT) that automatically shuts down the two cylinders when the engine is at high speed, thereby increasing fuel efficiency.
