Skoda Superb Mileage – New Record!
Skoda is going to launch the diesel powered Superb in India very soon, possibly in the first half of 2026. However, even before its launch, this car has surprised everyone, because it has given more mileage than Maruti! How?
In this drive, driver Mikko Marjic (2025 World Rally Champion) set out to find out how far a car can go on one tank and the car chosen for this was the Skoda Superb – obviously due to its large 66-litre fuel tank capacity. The car used for this test was equipped with a 2.0-litre diesel engine, which produces 147bhp and 360Nm and was mated to a 7-speed DSG. In this test, the Miko covered a total distance of 2,831 km on European roads, with an average fuel consumption of around 40 km per litre. According to the brochure, the claimed mileage of this model in Poland is 20.8 kmpl.
How did you achieve this mileage?
In this run, the speed was maintained in eco mode at around 80 kmph. Miko suggests that tire pressure is the most important thing and should be maintained to achieve maximum range. Furthermore, he also suggests that drivers make minimal use of brakes and slow down acceleration in time to cover the distance.
Launch is going to happen in India
Skoda has already confirmed the launch of this diesel powered Skoda Superb in India. This model is expected to arrive in the Indian market by the first half of 2026 and may be priced between Rs 60 lakh to Rs 70 lakh, on-road in Mumbai.
