The Skoda Superb has been relaunched in the Indian market, nearly a year after being pulled off sale by the brand. Previously the flagship sedan in Skoda India’s lineup, the model was discontinued with the onset of the more stringent BS6 Phase II emission norms. Now shipped to India as a full import, only 100 units of the model in the Laurin and Klement variant will be offered for sale here, each costing a hefty Rs 54 lakh (ex-showroom), nearly Rs 20 lakh more than the car that was previously on sale here. This is not to be mistaken for the fourth-generation Superb, which was unveiled globally by the brand in November 2023.
