REVIEW Skoda Superb Combi 2016 @ 60 FPS

Source: (from Skoda Press Release) The Skoda model campaign continues full steam ahead. A few months after the new Skoda Superb's market launch, the Czech manufacturer is presenting the new estate version of its flagship. Just like the hatchback, the Skoda Superb Combi attains a new level in terms of creativity and technology. With the new Superb Combi, Skoda demonstrates the brand's emotional strength and impressively transfers the expressive design of the hatchback to the body of a racy mid-size estate car: modern, emotive, dynamic and elegant. At the same time, applying MQB technology the engineers succeeded in improving on the already above average spaciousness of the predecessor.
​"The new Skoda Superb Combi embodies our core brand values par excellence and is more spacious, practical and clever than ever before," said Skoda CEO, Prof. Dr. h.c. Winfried Vahland. "With its emotionally charged appearance, the estate version of our flagship underlines our high aspirations in the automotive mid-class segment and it is proof of the brand's engineering and design expertise. The dynamic, almost sporty appearance represents a new proposition within the mid-size estate car segment. The new Superb Combi's perfect combination of aesthetics and functionality, complemented by MQB technology, will attract new customers to the model and the brand," said Winfried Vahland.
The manufacturer has offered an estate version of its top-of-the-range Skoda Superb since 2009. By the end of May 2015, Skoda had delivered more than 200,000 Skoda Superb Combis to customers worldwide. This represents around 35 per cent of all Skoda Superbs sold in the period from 2009 to date.
Customers have always valued the overall package of the Superb and the Superb Combi: extremely generous space, a timelessly elegant design, modern, tried-and-tested technology, a top level of comfort, maximum safety, optimum functionality and very good value for money. "With its outstanding qualities, our flagship has established itself very well in the markets over the last few years. We intend to build on this success and to also attract new customers. For this purpose, we have further improved the new Superb and the new Superb Combi in every aspect," said Werner Eichhorn, Skoda Board Member for Sales and Marketing.
Skoda design revolution continues
The new Skoda Superb Combi's new design demonstrates the brand's emotional strength. The new Skoda design language shows assurance, dynamic elegance and balanced proportions. At the same time, the new generation offers even more space and further improved functional virtues. Form, function and technology in perfect harmony.
The front coveys strength and self-assurance at first glance. The wide grille, the wide and distinctive headlights and the cleanly structured, deeply drawn front-end architecture are all designed for increased optical width. At the same time, the striking front mask with radiator grille and brand logo centrally positioned on the bonnet's nose focus the expression on the centre of the vehicle's front. The bonnet is strongly contoured. Two lines running inwards strengthen the powerful impression.
The new Skoda Superb Combi's side view conveys dynamic elegance. The silhouette unfolds as a stylistically confident, perfect unit. The emotionally-rich overall impression is created in particular by the longer wheelbase, the shortened front overhang, the energetic roofline and the slanted rear window. In addition, the vehicle appears longer because of the razor-sharp, high tornado line which achieves an effective contrast between light and shade; an impression that is intensified by the wing line. The large wheels and striking wheel arches emphasise the vehicle's exclusive appearance.
The new Skoda Superb Combi's rear is self-assured and expressive. There is also a strong emphasis on the horizontal, conveying the vehicle's dynamics and supreme strength at the rear as well. The lines are streamlined and clear. The two-part, wide and distinctive taillights shine with LED technology as standard and sharply intensify the C-shaped lights that Skoda is well known for. At the same time, the taillights benefit from additional brilliance due to crystalline elements. The tailgate's sharp, horizontal embossing gives added spice to the rear.
The completely new interpreted interior is identical to that of the Superb hatchback and continues essential design details of the car's exterior. This includes the emphasis on horizontal lines, which allow the already extremely spacious interior to appear even more generous and airy. Clear shapes, precise workmanship and the use of new, premium materials lend the interior new quality.
