Our take on this /// Verdict

The Skoda Kushaq 1500cc Matte Edition DSG is a compelling choice in the compact SUV segment, especially for those who value performance, comfort, and safety. The 1.5-liter TSI engine, paired with a 7-speed DSG transmission, delivers exceptional power and smooth gear shifts, making it a joy to drive both in city traffic and on highways. The cars handling is outstanding, with minimal turbo lag and excellent high-speed stability. The interior is luxurious, featuring ventilated leather seats, a dual-tone interior décor, and a large free-standing infotainment system. Safety is also a strong point, with over 40 active and passive safety features, including six airbags. However, some minor drawbacks include the lack of LED fog lamps, the odd tyre size which can be a challenge for replacements, and some users reporting jerky DSG behavior in lower gears. Overall, the Kushaq 1500cc Matte Edition DSG is a well-rounded vehicle that balances performance, comfort, and safety, making it a strong contender in its class.

Price

The Skoda Kushaq 1500cc Matte Edition DSG is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for the top variant, which includes the 1.5-liter TSI engine and 7-speed DSG transmission, is around Rs 18.99 lakh. When you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes, registration, and insurance, the price can go up to approximately Rs 22-23 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing positions the Kushaq favorably against its competitors, offering a blend of premium features and performance at a relatively affordable price. The value-for-money aspect is further enhanced by the cars high localization content, which helps keep costs in check without compromising on quality.

Latest Updates

Sunday, 08 September 2024 03:29 PM Skoda has discontinued the manual transmission option for the Kushaq 1.5 TSI, now only offering it with a 7-speed DSG automatic transmission. This move is likely due to higher demand for automatics in the segment and reallocation of production capacity for other models. I think this will make the Kushaq more appealing to those who prefer the convenience of an automatic.

Monday, 03 July 2023 11:30 AM The Skoda Kushaq Matte Edition, introduced in July 2023, features a unique Carbon Steel matte finish with Glossy Black accents on the ORVMs, door handles, and rear spoiler. This limited edition, priced at a premium of Rs. 40,000, is available in both 1.0 TSI and 1.5 TSI engine configurations with various transmission options. I believe the matte finish gives the Kushaq a sleek and distinctive look that will attract many buyers.

Monday, 03 July 2023 07:18 AM The Kushaq Matte Edition comes equipped with a 25.4 cm infotainment system, Wireless Smartlink for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a Škoda Sound System with 6 high-performance speakers and a subwoofer. These features enhance the overall driving experience and provide a premium feel. I think these tech features make the Kushaq a compelling choice for those looking for a modern and connected driving experience.

Saturday, 01 October 2022 04:44 AM The Skoda Kushaq, including the 1.5 TSI variant, has received a 5-star safety rating from the Global NCAP, making it one of the safest cars in its segment. This safety record, combined with its robust engine and transmission options, positions the Kushaq as a strong contender in the Indian market. I believe this safety rating is a significant selling point for the Kushaq.

Tuesday, 31 August 2021 11:52 AM The Kushaq 1.5 TSI DSG has been praised for its smooth and fast-shifting gearbox, making it enjoyable both in city driving and on highways. However, there are concerns about the long-term reliability of the DSG transmission. Despite these concerns, the combination of the 1.5 TSI engine and DSG transmission is highly regarded for its performance. I think the performance is great, but reliability issues need to be addressed for long-term satisfaction.

Mileage

Monday, 18 November 2024 01:10 PM The Skoda Kushaq 1500cc Matte Edition DSG offers decent mileage, considering its powerful engine. In city driving, you can expect around 11-12 kmpl, while on highways, the mileage can improve to around 16-19 kmpl, depending on the driving style. Using higher-octane fuel, such as 95 Octane, can also result in better performance and fuel efficiency. The Active Cylinder Technology (ACT) in the petrol engine helps in optimizing fuel consumption without sacrificing performance. Overall, the mileage is satisfactory for a vehicle in this segment, making it a practical choice for both daily commuting and long road trips.
