The Skoda Slavia has built a strong fan following in the midsize sedan segment thanks to its stylish design, fun-to-drive nature and premium cabin. Many buyers choose the Monte Carlo variant for its sporty look and exclusive styling. Now, Skoda has added another reason for enthusiasts to take a closer look by introducing two fresh paint options that will be available in very limited numbers.
Only 200 units of these special colour editions will be sold in India. The best part is that customers do not have to pay anything extra, as the prices stay the same.
Two new colours join the Monte Carlo range
The latest additions are Shimla Green and Steel Grey. Both are offered with a black roof, giving the sedan a sporty dual tone appearance. These new shades increase the Slavia Monte Carlo’s colour choices for buyers looking for something different.
The Monte Carlo continues to be based on the top Prestige variant and carries several sporty styling touches.
Exterior highlights include:
- Shimla Green and Steel Grey dual tone paint options
- Black roof finish
- Black grille and bumper elements
- Black ORVMs and badging
- 16 inch alloy wheels
- Monte Carlo badges on the front fenders
- Smoked LED tail lamps
- Black boot lip spoiler
Cabin keeps its sporty character
The interior follows the same sporty theme with black and red elements spread across the cabin. The digital instrument cluster also gets a special red display theme.
Some key cabin highlights include:
- Black and red leatherette seats
- Monte Carlo seat branding
- Red stitching on door armrests
- Metal pedals
- Monte Carlo scuff plates
- Digital instrument cluster with red graphics
Engine and gearbox options
The Slavia Monte Carlo continues with two turbo petrol engine choices. Both versions are available only with automatic gearboxes.
| Engine | Power | Torque | Gearbox |
| 1.0-litre TSI turbo petrol | 115 hp | 178 Nm | 6-speed automatic |
| 1.5-litre TSI turbo petrol | 150 hp | 250 Nm | 7-speed DSG |
The 1.5-litre engine also comes with Active Cylinder Technology (ACT), which can switch off two cylinders during light driving conditions to improve fuel efficiency. It also uses plasma coated cylinder liners for better heat management.
Price remains the same
Despite the exclusive paint options, Skoda has not increased the prices.
| Variant | Ex-showroom Price |
| Slavia Monte Carlo | Rs 16.69 lakh to Rs 18.19 lakh |
Facelift around the corner
The Slavia facelift is expected to arrive in the coming months with refreshed styling and a few feature additions. Spy shots suggest updates such as a larger digital instrument cluster, revised front styling, new alloy wheels and additional convenience features. However, the current Monte Carlo continues to offer the same sporty design and performance that has made it popular among buyers.
