Skoda Kushaq Facelift Overview
One of the key changes that will be made in the new Skoda Kushaq Facelift would be the inclusion of Level 2 ADAS suite, 360° surround view camera and a panoramic sunroof After the recent past, the new Skoda Kushaq Facelift could have the official launch in January 2026. The SUV which fits in the 4.2 -4.4m category and is competing with Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Victoris and the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder will undergo some creative interior and exterior changes. It will, however, still be using the same power lineup that was used in its predecessor.
Skoda Kushaq Facelift – Exterior Changes
The Skoda Kushaq Facelift will have a minor change. In keeping with its daring and rough look, it will have a new front grille, a reformed head and tail lamps and modified bumpers. It can also be fitted with tail lamps and alloy puncture wheels. One of its key changes will be a panoramic sunroof. Although this feature is present in all of its rivals, it was observed to be wanting since the latest Kushaq is only offered a single pane electric sunroof.
Added Features and Technology in Skoda Kushaq Facelift
Additional features and technology can also be added to 360 degree camera, revised infotainment system, digital instrument cluster and updated audio system and new driver display unit. The facelift will also have the electrically adjustable and ventilated driver and co-passenger seats as it is presently observed on the current Kushaq.
Safety & Powertrain Details of Skoda Kushaq Facelift
Level 2 ADAS safety will also be the first in the Kushaq facelift. This will render facelift to be the first mass market car that Skoda will get this feature in India. Since Skoda Kushaq Facelift has attained a 5-star safety rating as shown by Global-NCAP, safety will also comprise a total of 6 airbags, ABS, EBD, traction control and electric stability system in addition to hill hold assist and TPMS. It is unclear, as of now, whether each of these features will be available on all trims, or just limited to the most specifications.
Skoda Kushaq Facelift Powertrain The Skoda Kushaq Facelift will retain the power supply through the use of the same motors utilized in its present version. It has the 1.0 liter turbo petrol which has 115 hp power and 178 Nm torque with a 6 speed manual gearbox or 6 speed AT. It also gets a bigger 1.5 liter turbo petrol which produces 150 hp of power and 250 Nm of torque coupled to a 7 speed DSG. The company might not at the time of launch, but in later stages, the company may also upgrade the 7 speed DSG to 8 speed torque converter automatic transmission that will be supplied by AISIN. This 8 speed auto will likely have more comfortable shifts, better fuel efficiency and driveability thus enabling Skoda to meet the CAFE III standards.
