After much anticipation and a series of spy images, the Skoda Kylaq has been launched with prices starting from Rs 7.89 lakh (introductory ex-showroom pan-India). Bookings for the SUV will open on December 2, 2024, while customer deliveries will start from January 27, 2025, following its showcase at the Bharat Mobility Expo 2025. Skoda is offering the Kylaq in four broad variants: Classic, Signature, Signature Plus, and Prestige.

Looks Like A Baby Kushaq

The Kylaq, like the Kushaq, also has a split-LED headlight design, with the LED DRLs located just below the bonnet line and the LED projector headlights placed right above the bumper. It has the iconic butterfly-shaped grille as seen on other Skoda offerings and a chunky bumper with a honeycomb pattern for the central air dam.

Its profile has a clean look, and it’s from this angle that you can notice the shrunken size compared to Skoda’s compact SUV offering. Highlights on the sides are the roof rails, 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, and ORVM-mounted turn indicators.

At the back, the Kylaq has wraparound LED tail lights with inverted L-shaped internal lighting elements. The tail lights are connected by a slim black strip featuring the ‘Skoda’ lettering. You can also notice the ‘Kylaq’ badge on the lower left portion of the tailgate and a tall-ish bumper with a chunky skid plate.

Its dimensions are as follows:

It gets a black and grey cabin theme with silver and chrome accents all around the cabin. Skoda has also provided it with a 2-spoke steering wheel and semi-leatherette seat upholstery. It has octagonal side AC vents while the central vents are located below the big touchscreen. Further below the central AC vents, you can find the panel for the climate controls, which is a straight lift from the Kushaq.

What Features Does It Get?

Skoda has equipped it with amenities like a 10.1-inch touchscreen, an 8-inch digital driver’s display, and wireless phone charger. The Kylaq also comes with a single-pane sunroof and 6-way powered front seats with ventilation.

In terms of safety, it packs six airbags (as standard), electronic stability control (ESC), traction control, and multi-collision braking.

Skoda Kylaq Powertrain

The Kylaq is powered by the 1-litre turbo-petrol engine (115 PS/178 Nm) that does duties in the likes of the Kushaq and Slavia. It is offered with both 6-speed manual and 6-speed torque converter automatic transmissions.
