Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo Edition: Here’s What We Know So Far

Gets Blacked Out Treatment

One of the most noticeable changes on the upcoming Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo Edition is the blacked-out treatment it has received over the standard variants. This blacked-out treatment of the Skoda Kushaq gives the Monte Carlo Edition of the SUV a sportier appeal.

Comes With Just Two Exterior Colour Options

Unlike the standard version of the Skoda Kushaq SUV, the Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo Edition is limited to just two exterior colour options. This exterior colour choice includes Red, and White.

New Diamond-Cut Alloy Wheels

As part of the special edition treatment, the exterior of the Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo features a new set of 17-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels that is slightly sportier to look at.

Sporty Dual-Tone Interior

Unlike the standard variants of the Skoda Kushaq, the Monte Carlo Edition of the Skoda Kushaq features a sporty red-black dual-tone interior theme. This dual-tone theme not only covers the upholstery but also includes the dashboard, centre console, seats, and infotainment graphics.

Fully Digital Instrument Cluster

One of the most noticeable change and upgrade over the standard variant of the Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo Edition is the fully digital instrument cluster borrowed from the Skoda Slavia that replaces the analogue unit seen in the standard variants of the Skoda Kushaq SUV.

No Changes In Powertrain Options

We do not expect any mechanical changes on the upcoming Skoda Kusaq Monte Carlo Edition and it will continue to come with two engine options as the standard variants of the Kushaq SUV, which includes the 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder. TSI petrol engine with 115bhp of peak power and 178Nm of peak torque, and the 1.5-litre TSI engine with 150bhp of peak power and 250Nm of peak torque.

Both the engines will be offered with manual and automatic gearbox. However, the 1.0 TSI will feature a 6-speed automatic gearbox, whereas the 1.5 TSI will feature a more advanced 7-speed DCT gearbox.

Launch On May

Skoda is gearing up to launch the much-awaited Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo Edition on May 9, 2022. However, Skoda is yet to release the price of the upcoming Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo Edition.
