The new ŠKODA Superb has been awarded the maximum five-star rating in Euro NCAP crash tests. The latest Euro NCAP result also shows the high safety standard of the entire ŠKODA model range: at their market launches, all current ŠKODA model lines have been awarded a maximum five-star rating in Euro NCAP crash tests.

Mladá Boleslav, 24 June 2015 – The Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme) rating includes categories of occupant protection for adults and children, pedestrian protection and safety assistance systems. The new ŠKODA Superb has been awarded with the maximum five-star rating in all four categories.

The new ŠKODA Superb offers safety without compromise: using Volkswagen Group’s latest MQB technology, the brand’s top model scores highly with numerous safety assistance systems. In the event of a collision, state-of-the-art restraint systems with up to nine airbags, a more rigid body and specifically optimised crumple zones offer the best possible occupant protection. There is also a completely new chassis that guarantees stability, comfort and agility.

The new ŠKODA Superb offers an array of new assistance systems including (in the UK) standard Front Assist emergency braking function. This and other optional technology supports the driver in the most diverse traffic situations, from keeping at a safe distance and staying in lane to emergency braking in the case of an impending collision. The new Superb is fitted as standard with Electronic Stability Control including Multi-Collision Brake. In the UK, the following safety features are also standard: Front Assist with City Emergency Brake, electronic tyre pressure monitor and XDS+, an extended function of the electronic differential lock.

In addition, several safety assistance systems are optional. The Superb is available with Blind Spot Detect, Rear Traffic Alert, Traffic Jam Assist and Emergency Assist. Further safety systems are: automatic distance control (Adaptive Cruise Control – standard from SE), proactive occupant protection (Crew Protect Assist), Lane Assist, Speedlimiter, fatigue detection (Driver Alert) and traffic sign recognition (Travel Assist).

Additionally, innovative lighting systems in the new ŠKODA Superb provide more safety. The Superb is available with Smart Light Assist, which provides automatic control of high beam lights, to better illuminate the road without dazzling other road users.

The latest Euro NCAP top rating for the new ŠKODA Superb highlights that the current ŠKODA model range is safer than ever before. In the course of their respective market launches, all current model lines have been awarded with the maximum five-star rating. Prior to the new ŠKODA Superb, the new ŠKODA Fabia was awarded with five stars in November 2014. The maximum five-star rating was also achieved by the Octavia (2013), Rapid (2012), Citigo (2011) and Yeti (2008).

The outstanding results of ŠKODA vehicles in the Euro NCAP crash tests is the result of extensive efforts by the manufacturer to achieve maximum active and passive safety. As part of its corporate social responsibility, the company is also involved in many ways in improving safety on roads and motorways.

Euro NCAP is an independent consortium of European ministries for transport, motoring clubs, insurers and consumer groups. The organisation carries out crash tests with new car models and assesses their safety.

Combining form and function, the new ŠKODA Superb Estate will be setting new standards in its segment from September. Its successful interplay between design and practicality is especially obvious at the back: the rear is not only more stylish than ever – but behind the large, wide-opening fifth door, you’ll find the largest, most practical boot in its class.

Mladá Boleslav, 17 June 2015 – The new ŠKODA Superb Estate has the largest boot in the automotive mid-class. Although the new Superb Estate is only 23mm longer than its predecessor, the boot holds 27 litres more than before with the rear seats up. By putting the seats down in the back the load capacity will increase to almost two cubic metres: a 1950-litre load capacity is by far the best in its class, and 85 litres larger than that of the second-generation model. Even carrying long objects is possible; the front passenger seat can easily be folded down when required. This allows objects of up to 3.10 metres in length to be transported in the new Superb Estate.

The new ŠKODA Superb not only triumphs in terms of space, but also in its practical solutions. Up to 31 Simply Clever features are on offer for the new model – 11 of which are in the boot alone.

Just as with the saloon version, the new ŠKODA Superb Estate is also optionally available with a virtual pedal, which enables you to open the electric tailgate hands-free with a simple foot movement around the bottom of the rear bumper. The function works in combination with the keyless lock and start system KESSY.

Another new addition making its debut on the new ŠKODA Superb Estate is the practical tip-to-close function that initiates the electric boot closing mechanism with a simple pull. When combining the electric bootlid with KESSY, the boot can also be closed by remote control.

Folding down the rear backrests can be done at the touch of a button in the boot of the new Superb Estate.

The variably adjustable false boot floor offers the highest practical benefits in the new ŠKODA Superb Estate. This intermediate moveable floor can divide the boot in various ways making it more flexible. The system also creates practical storage space: the boot’s coat shelf and the retractable cover can be stored under the double floor.

The roller cover has been designed as a manual retractable load cover. By applying gentle pressure, it automatically rolls back and the boot is free for loading. The roller cover also has an automatic unlocking roller blind. This means the cover will automatically move one notch back when the boot door opens.

Another practical feature is the new coat shelf, which can be found under the roller cover. This can hold flat items, such as a jacket.

Four folding hooks in the boot can help to securely transport items that might otherwise move around, for example shopping bags. The net programme is also useful here; one horizontal and two vertical nets can secure items when required. Finally, in the boot you will also find a removable LED torch, which can be used outside the vehicle. The flashlight is charged automatically in its holder as you drive, and is also magnetic.

The new ŠKODA Superb Estate goes on sale in the UK in July, ahead of first deliveries from September.

ŠKODA retailers across the UK are preparing for one of the busiest weekends of the year with the launch of The Big ŠKODA Event. To celebrate the brand’s successful start to 2015, ŠKODA is offering a host of amazing deals to buyers, including zero per cent finance across the entire range, along with extra treats for those ordering a new or used ŠKODA over the course of the weekend.

Milton Keynes, 4th June 2015 - As part of ŠKODA’s commitment to maximising value for customers and taking the hassle out of buying a new car, the brand is offering its popular zero per cent finance package on all models in the current range. Acclaimed for their simplicity, ŠKODA’s zero per cent deals are offered from Citigo to Superb models, and offer buyers an affordable way into ŠKODA ownership.

For example, buyers can pick up the multi-award-winning Fabia for as little as £99 per month. The finance offer also applies to the new Rapid Spaceback range that has recently benefitted from a generous price cut across the line-up. With prices now starting from just £13,500, it represents outstanding value for money.

And that’s not all. To help new buyers get the most out of their cars, ŠKODA is offering £500 worth of fuel. At current prices, that equates to 90 gallons of diesel or 94 gallons of unleaded – enough to keep a new Octavia 1.6 TDI GreenLine III going for 7,947 miles.

Customers opting for ŠKODA’s comprehensive range of approved used cars also benefit from The Big ŠKODA Event. For every used car sold between the 4th and 9th June, ŠKODA is offering two free services (one major and one minor). This means that owners save up to £400 on current Simply Fixed prices.

The Superb offers an exceptionally spacious interior meaning there is more than enough space for your bicycle, and the vast amount of leg room presents even more than you’d get in an S Class Mercedes. The Estate has an enormous 633 litres of usable space in the boot which extends to 1,865 litres with the seats down. In comparison, the Hatch boasts 595 litres, extending to 1,700 litres with the boot down.
