The Kylaq lies in the middle of its rivals in terms of size, and there is no parameter where it’s in the lead
Update (02/12/2024): Skoda has revealed the full variant-wise prices of the Kylaq, which range from Rs 7.89 lakh to Rs 14.40 lakh (introductory ex-showroom, pan-India).
The Skoda Kylaq has been launched as the carmaker’s entry into the popular subcompact SUV segment, and the Kylaq has to go up against well established models like the Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, and Maruti Brezza. While it is on par with most of its rivals in terms of features and performance, when it comes to size, it falls a little short. Here, in this article, we have compared the dimensions of the Kylaq with its key rivals, and this is where it stands:

All models, except for the Mahindra XUV 3XO, have the same length of 3,995 mm.
-
The 3XO is the widest in the segment followed by Nexon. The Kylaq, on the other hand, is only second from last as it is 13 mm wider than the Venue.
-
In terms of height, it falls in the middle as it is taller than the Sonet and the Venue, but not as tall as the rest of the models.

However, it does have one of the longest wheelbase, which can result in a healthy legroom at the rear.
Skoda Kylaq: Overview
The Skoda Kylaq is the latest addition to the subcompact SUV segment and it follows Skoda’s new global design language. It comes with all-LED lighting, sleek DRLs, and 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels.
Its cabin shares similarities with the Kushaq and Slavia, and that can be seen in the 2-spoke steering wheel, dual screen setup, and the climate control panel. Overall, it gets a dual-tone black and grey cabin theme with leatherette upholstery, and it comes with soft touch padding on the door pads.
The Kylaq has also borrowed features from other Skoda models which include a 10.1-inch touchscreen, an 8-inch digital driver’s display, 6-way powered and ventilated front seats, and a wireless phone charger. The Kylaq also gets a single-pane sunroof, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, automatic climate control, and cruise control.

Expected Price & Rivals
The Skoda Kylaq starts from Rs 7.89 lakh (introductory, ex-showroom), and we expect the top-spec variant to be priced at around Rs 14 lakh when the full price list is revealed on December 2. It goes up against the subcompact SUVs like the Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, Maruti Brezza, Hyundai Venue, and Mahindra XUV 3XO, while also being a rival to sub-4m crossovers like the Maruti Fronx and Toyota Taisor.
