Sunday, 08 September 2024 12:28 PM Skoda has discontinued the 1.5L EVO TSI manual transmission (MT) variants for the Kushaq and Slavia models in India. This move forces buyers who prefer the 1.5L engine to opt for the more expensive 7-speed DSG automatic transmission. The decision may impact enthusiasts who prefer manual gearboxes. I believe this could alienate some loyal customers who value the driving experience of a manual transmission.

Sunday, 08 September 2024 07:22 AM The Kushaq 1.5L Monte Carlo AT variant is priced at Rs. 18.60 lakh (ex-showroom) and comes with a range of features including powered front seats, ventilated seats, and an automatic climate control system. The vehicle is powered by a 1.5L TSI engine producing 147.51 bhp and 250 Nm of torque, paired with a 7-speed DSG transmission. I think the combination of performance and luxury features makes this variant an attractive option, despite the absence of a manual transmission.

Friday, 06 September 2024 04:05 PM Skodas decision to discontinue the 1.5L EVO TSI MT variants is speculated to be due to several factors, including the preference for automatic transmissions in the segment and the reallocation of production capacity to other models like the Kylaq. This shift could impact Skodas sales, potentially benefiting competitors like Volkswagen. I believe this strategic move might help Skoda focus on other market segments but could also lead to a loss of market share among manual transmission enthusiasts.

Monday, 02 September 2024 01:08 PM The Skoda Kushaq and Slavia Monte Carlo editions have been launched, but these new variants do not include the 1.5L EVO TSI MT option. Instead, they are available with the 1.5L TSI engine paired only with a 7-speed DSG transmission. The Monte Carlo editions feature several exterior and interior upgrades, including blacked-out elements and sporty accents. I think these editions will appeal to those looking for a stylish and performance-oriented vehicle, but the lack of a manual transmission might be a letdown for some.

Monday, 02 September 2024 06:05 AM Skoda India is banking on the new Monte Carlo and Sportline editions to boost sales during the festive season. These editions offer several upgrades over the standard models, including exterior and interior design changes. However, the absence of the 1.5L EVO TSI MT option might affect sales among enthusiasts who prefer manual transmissions. I believe these new editions will still attract a significant number of buyers looking for a stylish and feature-rich vehicle.
