Skoda has announced that it has commenced mass production of the Slavia C-segment sedan at its factory in Chakan, Pune.
The second model from the Czech brand to be produced under its India 2.0 project is built on the MQB-A0-IN platform and will come in 3 variants – Active, Ambition and Style.
Featuring a modern design with typical Skoda styling elements, the Slavia has LED headlights and tail lamps, dual-tone alloys and chrome exterior embellishments. It will be available in 5 colourways, including a new shade called Crystal Blue.

Some of the goodies the car will come with include an 8-inch driver’s display, 10-inch touchscreen with SmartLink technology, touch-control Climatronic (Ambition trim and up), leather ventilated front seats (Style variant), MySkoda Connect mobile online services (Style), and more.
There will be 2 TSI petrol engine options – 115 PS, 1.0-litre 3-cylinder and 150 PS, 1.5-litre 4-cylinder with cylinder deactivation technology – for the car along with 3 gearbox options – 6-speed manual, 6-speed automatic and 7-speed DSG.
With the Skoda Slavia production having commenced this month, customer deliveries should start soon after its market launch that is scheduled for March 2022.
