Skoda Auto is gearing up for a big year in India with multiple launches planned across segments. From performance-focused RS models to a brand-new electric SUV and updated sedans, the company is preparing a strong product push. Here’s a simple look at all 6 upcoming Skoda cars expected in 2026.
The Kodiaq RS will be introduced as a limited-run CBU import by June 2026. It will be powered by a 2.0-litre TSI turbo-petrol engine producing 265 hp and 400 Nm, paired with a 7-speed DSG and all-wheel drive. The SUV can sprint from 0-100 km/h in just 6.3 seconds.
It will feature aggressive styling with blacked-out elements, 20-inch alloy wheels, and a sporty interior with red stitching and a 13-inch touchscreen. Prices are expected to range between Rs 55 lakh and Rs 60 lakh.

The Elroq will mark Skoda’s entry into the electric SUV space in India, expected by June 2026. It will feature the brand’s new “Modern Solid” design language with a closed-off front design.
Globally, it offers multiple battery packs, including an 82 kWh option with up to 560 km range. Fast charging will allow a 10-80% charge in around 28 minutes.
It will rival models like the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and BYD Atto 3.
The 2026 Skoda Slavia facelift is expected to arrive in Q3 2026 with subtle design changes and added features. It will get LED dynamic turn indicators, updated bumpers, a revised grille, and new alloy wheels.
Inside, the cabin will remain similar but could include a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, improved upholstery, and possibly a rear seat massage function.
Engine options will continue as before, though the 1.0-litre petrol may get a new 8-speed automatic gearbox for better performance and efficiency.
Skoda will introduce a new Kylaq Sportline variant by September 2026. It will feature sporty design elements like blacked-out styling, 17-inch alloy wheels, a dual-tone roof, and smoked tail lamps.
It will continue with the same 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, available with both manual and automatic gearbox options. The cabin is expected to get an all-black theme with premium features.
The Octavia RS will return in Q4 2026 after the first batch sold out quickly. It will continue as a CBU import and will first cater to existing bookings.
Powered by a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine producing 265 hp and 370 Nm, it can do 0-100 km/h in 6.4 seconds. The sedan also gets sporty styling, Matrix LED headlamps, and advanced safety features.
The new-generation Superb diesel is expected to launch by October 2026, marking the return of diesel engines for Skoda in India. It will be brought in as a CBU import.
It will be powered by a 2.0-litre TDI engine producing around 193 hp and 400 Nm, paired with a 7-speed DSG gearbox. The new model will be larger, more premium, and feature a 13-inch touchscreen, Smart Dials, and a large 645-litre boot.
