Skoda Unveils the All-New Skoda Kylaq: A Dynamic and Stylish SUV

Skoda has officially unveiled its newest addition to the SUV family, the Skoda Kylaq. The name, meaning crystal in Sanskrit, was chosen through a naming contest in India with 200,000 participants voting on social media platforms.

Following the brand’s naming convention, “Kylaq” starts with a K and ends with a Q, fitting seamlessly into Skoda’s product range. The new model is built on the Volkswagen Group’s compact MQB platform, sharing its architecture with its “older brother,” the Kushaq.

From the teaser images, the Skoda Kylaq showcases a sporty and dynamic design language. The front grille features the brand’s signature vertical slats, complemented by dual-wing fog lamps and headlamps positioned below the front bumper.

The rear of the vehicle bears a resemblance to the T-Cross, another SUV within the Volkswagen Group family. Under the hood, the Skoda Kylaq is expected to be powered by a 1.0L turbocharged gasoline engine, producing 113 horsepower and 178 Nm of torque. The engine will be mated to a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission, driving the front wheels.

Scheduled for launch in early 2024, the Skoda Kylaq is anticipated to be priced at approximately 800,000 INR (equivalent to 242.9 million VND). It will compete against rivals such as the Hyundai Venue and Kia Sonet in the compact SUV segment.
