All-New 2021 Skoda Kushaq – Experience the Premium Quality

This is the all-new Skoda Kushaq which means Emperor in Sanskrit. You’ve been seen this car many times before seeing the concept version at the Auto expo. Then, of course, we also had the camouflage drive, and static reveals for the interior and exterior.

Introduction to the Kushaq

The all-new Skoda Kushaq was launched on the 28th of June and launched in the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, and TATA Harrier competition. Skoda company wishes that the car becomes the king of its segment. The Kushaq has entered the segment with a very tough competition with an impressive list of features and bold design. One more important thing is that the Kushaq doesn’t have a diesel engine. Yes, the car model is only available with a petrol variant.

Let us see whether the customers respond to Kushaq because they have many options in the similar segment with diesel engine options.

Exterior Design

The Kushaq has a sharp and neat design in its exterior, as seen in the images below. The grille at the front, along with the neatly integrated headlamps, looks impressive. And the chrome finish around the grille gives it a unique look. 

The alloy and wheels of 17-inch look smart and enhance the design of Kushaq. The rear design of the Kushaq is futuristic and has a European touch which attracts and makes it premium. Overall the Kushaq has a mixed design of subtle bits and quirky, making the car look pleasant.

Interior Design

Now let’s discuss the interior look of Kushaq. The design is not like the older ones. It feels premium and well-built from the inside. The 10-inch touchscreen tablet in the middle is integrated so that you can’t take off your eyes from it and is very comfortable to use while driving. Skoda Kushaq has some emerging features like Apple Car Play and Android Auto, new in today’s lifestyle.

The interior also has wireless charging near the gears. The dashboard has textured elements but also has some hard plastic too. The sliders for air conditioning and climate controls are easy to use, but the odometer is the same as the old ones, which means it’s an analog that was not expected at this price range.
