The front-fascia gets a prominent grille flanked by sharp headlight sharp-edged headlights with illuminated eyelash-like cues, a coupe-like profile, 17-inch alloy wheels and a neat looking pair of taillights.

Under the skin, this Czech flagship model is based on the Volkswagen Group’s MQB platform, with a wheelbase that’s 80 mm longer than in the outgoing model. This means an even bigger interior, which is already the outgoing models strongest feature. Cabin dimensions have grown in all directions, and Skoda claims the rear legroom is “about twice as much as in the nearest competitor.”
