Škoda Auto India has announced prices for the refreshed Slavia, with the sedan starting at ₹9.99 lakh ex-showroom and customer deliveries scheduled to begin next week. The company says the update adds revised lighting, new cabin features and an eight-speed torque-converter automatic for the 1.0 TSI engine.
Key points
- Škoda says new Slavia prices start at ₹9.99 lakh ex-showroom in India.
- The 1.0 TSI gains an eight-speed torque-converter automatic, while the 1.5 TSI continues with a seven-speed DSG.
- Customer deliveries are scheduled to begin next week, according to Škoda Auto India’s October 6 announcement.
Context
Škoda first unveiled the refreshed Slavia in August and followed with pricing on October 6. The company lists six trims—Classic, Classic+, Signature, Sportline, Prestige and Monte Carlo—and highlights new LED lighting, a 360-degree camera, front and rear parking sensors, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and a rear-seat massage function.
The manufacturer also says the next-generation infotainment system includes an AI assistant powered by Google Cloud. Those are manufacturer specifications and feature claims; Taaza Khabar has not independently road-tested the updated model. Market reports published on October 7 broadly match the announced starting price and equipment changes.
Why it matters
The update keeps the Slavia in India’s competitive midsize-sedan segment while adding convenience and transmission changes without replacing its established petrol-engine choices. Buyers should compare exact trim-level equipment, on-road prices and dealer availability before making a purchase decision.
