The next-gen Skoda Superb has been confirmed for a 2023 launch and will sit alongside the firm's 2026-bound EV lineup
. Given that the Czech car shares many of its underpinnings with Volkswagen's best-selling saloon, we expect the latest Superb to broadly follow the same path, meaning the 2023 Superb will be based on Volkswagen's latest ICE car platform - MQB Evo.
As such, we suspect powertrain options to be similair to the current VW crop: a mix of pure-ICE and electrified options in two- and four-wheel drive configurations, in line with Skoda's ploy to cater to a larger range of buyers and strengthen its position in the premium executive segment. A mixture of petrol and diesel engines are available with the current Superb, with 1.5-litre and 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engines and 1.6-litre and 2.0-litre diesel engines. The electrified plug-in hybrid pairs a 1.4-litre petrol four-pot with an electric motor and 13kWh battery for a combined output of 215bhp and an electric-only range of 25-30 miles.
