The upcoming lineup is expected to strengthen Skoda’s position in both premium and mainstream segments.

The Skoda Slavia facelift is expected to arrive in Q3 2026.
It will get subtle design updates like revised bumpers, a refreshed grille, and new alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin will remain largely the same but could get added features like a digital instrument cluster and improved upholstery.

Globally, the Elroq offers multiple battery options, including a larger pack with a claimed range of up to 560 km. It also supports fast charging, making it more practical for daily use.
Performance Returns with Octavia RS
The Skoda Octavia RS is set to return in Q4 2026.
It will continue as a CBU import and is expected to be powered by a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine. The model is known for its strong performance and sporty styling, making it popular among enthusiasts.
More Cars in the Lineup
Skoda is also planning to bring in other models to its 2026 lineup.
The Skoda Kodiaq RS is expected to arrive by mid-2026 with a more powerful engine and sporty design. Meanwhile, the Skoda Superb diesel could return later in the year, marking the comeback of diesel engines for the brand in India.
There is also a possibility of a new Kylaq Sportline variant, which could offer a more stylish version of the SUV.
