Conclusion
Quick shifting dual clutch gearbox with paddle shift, 160 PS at disposal and a free revving engine form the perfect recipe for this stretchy sedan to be an involving car to be driven. While the TDI has a punchy torque kick, the TSI pleases with its refinement and handling. Pick any, you can’t go wrong with either of them. Personally, we are quite smitten with the TSI, what`s more – the TSI is likely to be cheaper too! Skoda has ramped up the production of the face-lifted Superb as the current model is phased out and the prices should be announced during or shortly after the Auto Expo 2014 in February.
So does the facelift give the car enough Superb-ness and readiness for another innings? With its long list of features at the asking price, it`s a Yes from us!
