Skoda Sub 4m SUV Spied In Full Detail – Nexon, Brezza, Venue, Sonet, XUV 3XO Rival

Skoda Auto Volkswagen India currently doesn’t have a sub 4m offering and that will change soon. The company is testing its first-ever sub 4m SUV in India based on MQB A0 IN platform which has been spied on in full detail in a recent video.

The sub 4m SUV genre will heat up soon with Skoda entering the chat. There might be a Volkswagen counterpart of this vehicle owing to how both companies operate. Skoda has greenlighted the ‘Name Your Skoda’ contest, but Kwiq, Kyroq, Kymaq, Kariq and Kylaq names are more likely.

A video uploaded by The Fat Biker is garnering quite a lot of attention on social media. For good reasons, of course.

Rear design is strikingly Taigun-ish and that’s what lent an impression that it could be Taigun facelift in earlier speculations. C-shaped LED signature is striking, but indicators and reverse lights seem to be halogens.

It is interesting to note that this particular vehicle is donning steel wheels with covers shod with 205-section tyres and lacks rear defogger along with rear washer and wiper. There’s no sunroof on this vehicle either. On the inside, we can see a fully digital TFT instrument cluster along with a larger infotainment screen. So, it is safe to say that this could be a mid-spec trim and not the top-end.

In the compact SUV segment, Skoda and Volkswagen can bank heavily on crash safety aspects and get away with not giving
