Near perfect as a practical family estate car. Great value for money. Comfortable and quiet on the move. Huge amounts of rear legroom.
DSG automatic can sometimes lack quick response and be hesitant.

As far as family estate cars go, the Superb Estate ticks all the right boxes. This is one car that's close to faultless. Not only does it boast a mammoth-sized boot but it has the quality feel of a premium car, yet costs the same as a family hatchback. When it comes to offering value for money, nothing does it as well as the Superb Estate.
The practical boot offers more carrying capacity then a Ford Mondeo Estate and with its vertical sides, it's easy to maximise the space. Drop the seats and it's positively cavernous.
But that doesn't come at the expense of passenger space, with the Superb Estate boasting the kind of rear legroom you'd find in the likes of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Even those over six-foot will find huge amounts of space in the back. All this makes it one of the best family cars out there.
Then there's the superb ride quality, the suspension dealing effortlessly with potholes and poor quality roads, even when fitted with larger 18-inch alloy wheels. Add in minimal road noise in the cabin and the Superb is the ideal long distance car. True, the Superb is not the most involving car through corners but it still handles well with lots of grip and nicely weighted steering.
Most Superb Estate owners opt for a diesel with the Skoda available with an economical 1.6 TDI or 2.0 TDI engine. The latter is our pick of the range, especially the 150PS version which blends good fuel economy with strong in-gear performance.
If you're a low mileage driver, the good news is that the Superb Estate is available with the excellent 1.4 TSI petrol (later improved to a 1.5 TSI). Don't be put off by its small size as both are more than capable delivery plenty of get-up-and-go when required.
There's a genuine quality feel that flows throughout the Superb Estate and a real attention to detail. The perfect example being Skoda's 'simply clever' features which include a handy ice scraper that slots into the fuel filler cap and our favourite, umbrellas that slot into both front doors - a Superb trademark feature. There's even a removable magnetic torch in the boot with a 48 hour battery life.
Prices have increased since it was first launched and S models are now more than £25,000, although at least equipment levels are generous. There's also the option of 4x4 versions which, when fitted with cold weather tyres, make the Superb Estate ideal for driving in wintry conditions.

Skoda Superb Estate handling and engines
- Engines range from 1.4 TSI 125 to 2.0 TSI 280 DSG 4x4
- Readers report Real MPG to be between 26–78 mpg
The Superb Estate is a supremely comfortable car and one that's ideal for covering long distances. The spacious cabin is matched by a wonderfully smooth and forgiving ride that's the equal of many luxury limousines.
There's little in the way of road or wind noise on the move and it's excellent at ironing out rough and poor road surfaces. If you want a comfortable family car - this is it.
The trade off is that it's not the sharpest car when it comes to cornering. That said, it's more than capable through high speed bends and feels composed even when thrown into a tight corner. The steering doesn't have much in the way of feel, but is nicely weighted nonetheless.
Many Superb Estate buyers cover big miles and so opting for a diesel is the obvious choice. If you want outright economy then the 1.6 TDI is the one to go for. With 120PS it's hardly a ball of fire but there's no arguing how frugal it is with a Real MPG of more than 61mpg.
That's not to say it doesn't provide more than adequate performance. With 250Nm of torque the 1.6 TDI pulls strongly enough from low down and thanks to low noise levels and little vibration through the cabin, is ideal for motorway driving. And if you want the most frugal Superb Estate, this engine is used in the Greenline model, which sees economy improve to close to 64mpg.
However, our choice would still be the 2.0 TDI engine. The standard version has 150PS or there's a 190PS model. But it's the former which we think is the best blend of performance and economy. It's stronger through the gears than the 1.6 TDI and its extra torque - peaking at 340Nm - means getting past slow moving trucks is that bit easier.
It's easy on fuel too with Real MPG figures showing 53mpg. Plus it's available with a DSG gearbox - in this case a six-speed rather than the seven-speed of the smaller 1.6 TDI. While the DSG is more convenient, especially if you spend a lot of time in traffic, it's not without its drawbacks. On the motorway it's great, but it can be a bit hesitant, for instance when pulling onto a roundabout.
Skoda also offers 4x4 drive on the Superb with the 2.0 TDI engine. It's an extra £1500 but but really comes into its own in winter. Fit the Superb Estate with cold weather tyres and it will be pretty much unstoppable.
In late 2019 this engine was upgraded (and is now called Evo) with lower emissions and better economy.
For lower mileage drivers, or those who do lots of short journeys, a petrol Superb Estate makes more sense. And fortunately, Skoda has some excellent TSI engines. There was a 1.4 TSI engine which was later replaced by a 1.5 TSI.
Don't be put off by the small size as the the smaller petrols actually work exceptionally well in the Superb. Plus of course you don't have to worry about a DPF. And they're pretty reasonable on fuel so you should be seeing more than 40mpg.
Alongside this is a 2.0 TDI engine with 220PS - the same engine that's used in the Octavia vRS - and it gives the Superb a rapid turn of pace while the pinnacle of the range is 2.0 TSI with 280PS. This rare beast comes with 4x4 and a DSG gearbox as standard. As you can imagine, economy is hardly a strength. In 2019 this was dropped to 272PS.

Skoda Superb Estate interior
- Boot space is 510–1950 litres
- Euro NCAP rating of five stars
| Dimensions | |
|---|---|
| Length | 4856–4862 mm |
| Width | 2031 mm |
| Height | 1477–1496 mm |
| Wheelbase | 2841 mm |
This Superb Estate is wider and longer than its predecessor and that has big benefits for interior space. The boot is bigger up to a 660-litre capacity. As a comparison, that's 100 litres more than a BMW 5 Series Touring. The vertical sides, wide tailgate opening and low floor mean it's very easy to load things like pushchairs in and out.
Plus for maximum space you can easily drop the rear seats to create a mammoth flat load area that will cope with pretty much everything the average estate owner needs it to. You need no longer fear those trips to a certain Swedish furniture shop that loves a bit of flatpack.
But there's more to the Superb Estate than merely a big boot. It's filled with what Skoda calls 'simply clever' features such as an ice scraper that slots into the fuel filler cap, plus two umbrellas that cleverly hide in little compartments in each of the front doors. There's even a one handed cupholder, basically a grippy base that holds a bottle secure so you can unscrew the lid. For instant cola-based refreshment.
They may be small features but they're all great for making everyday life with the Superb easier. There are plenty of other extras too, such as the optional electric boot that can be opened by swinging your foot under the rear bumper. Very handy when you have hands full of shopping.
All these practical features are integrated into a spacious cabin with plenty of head room and acres of leg room. Those in the back get very well looked after with limousine-like space to stretch out, even with the front seats all the way back. If you're a family with ever-growing teenagers, you'll appreciate this even more.
A quality feel runs through every element of the Superb Estate, from the reassuringly heavy thud of the doors, to the feel of the buttons to the materials used on the dash top. It's every inch a premium car. And a comfortable one too with excellent seats working with that impeccable ride to deliver great long distance luxury.
The 2019 facelift brought the option of digital dials (what Skoda calls Virtual Cockpit) which sees the conventional instruments replaced with a high res screen. It's a nice feature but whether it's worth paying extra for is doubtful.

S trim comes with 16-inch Orion alloy wheels (215/60 R16), body coloured door mirrors and door handles, halogen headlights with daytime running lights, front fog lights, LED rear lights, three spoke leather multi-function steering wheel, cloth upholstery, electric parking brake, removable lamp in boot, bluetooth, DAB digital radio and a five-inch touchscreen

Skoda unveils the Superb Estate
The new Superb Estate offers the best interior space in its segment. It is based on MQB technology, with a wheelbase that has been extended by 80mm to 2,841mm. The track width has increased to 1,584mm at the front and to 1,572mm at the rear. The result: even more interior space. In the latest model, driver and passenger have 39mm more elbow room than before. Headroom in the front is 995mm and 1,001mm in the rear – more than in any other model in the segment. Rear knee-room is 157mm – around twice as much as the next-best competitor.
Elbow room in the rear has been increased by 70mm. The boot volume also sets a new benchmark: 660 litres, representing an increase of 27 litres compared to the previous model. When the back seats are folded down, the boot volume reaches an impressive 1950 litres.
June 2015
Prices of new Superb Estate announced
The new model is available to order later this month with the widest range of engine, transmission and trim level options ever offered. First UK deliveries are expected in September.
Just like its hatchback sibling, the new Superb Estate will be available with seven engine options and the option of DSG automatic and 4x4 transmissions on some models. The engine range consists of four TSI petrol and three TDI diesel units with outputs ranging from 120PS for the 1.6 TDI to 280PS for the range-topping new 2.0 TSI engine.
The range consists of five trim levels: S, SE, SE Business, SE L Executive and Laurin & Klement, with each offering higher specification and equipment levels than comparable models in the current line-up. Despite this impressive increase in specification across the board, ŠKODA has managed to make the new Superb even more affordable with the new 1.4 TSI S model available for £19,840 – just £25 more than the outgoing S model.

Skoda Greenline goes on sale
The latest addition to the Superb range has a predicted combined consumption figure of 76.3mpg and CO2 emissions of just 96g/km for the hatch and 97g/km for the Estate. These provide the new Superb GreenLine with a potential range of more than 1,100 miles on just one tank of fuel.
The newcomer – which is the most fuel-efficient and cleanest Superb ever built – is powered by a 1.6-litre four-cylinder diesel engine that develops 120PS and incorporates a host of advanced fuel-saving technologies and engineering features. As with all other Superb models, the GreenLine is equipped with start-stop ignition and brake energy recovery as standard. In addition, both Superb GreenLine models feature longer gear ratios, SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) and 16-inch reduced rolling resistance tyres.

October 2019
Skoda Superb iV plug-in hybrid priced from £31,970
Skoda has announced prices for its first plug-in hybrid model ahead of orders opening in January 2020.
The Superb iV combines a turbocharged 1.4-litre TSI petrol engine and 85kW electric motor, delivering a total performance of 218PS and CO2 emissions of less than 40g/km. The Superb iV also offers a zero-emission drive up to 35 miles and can travel up to 578 miles on a single full tank and a fully charged battery when in hybrid mode.
Owners can choose between four trim levels with the plug-in hybrid powertrain: SE Technology for fleet customers, SE L, SportLine Plus, as well as the top of the range L&K. Charging takes three hours and 30 minutes from a wall box (using a wall box with a charging output of 3.6 kW) and comes ready with a three-pin charger and wall box charging cables neatly stowed under the boot floor.
In addition to the standard equipment, drivers can take advantage of a host of new features. New driving modes include E-mode for electric and hybrid drive and Sport mode, which delivers maximum system performance on hybrid drive. In hybrid driving modes, the car’s display will show the electric range available as well as the potential range if the auxiliary applications in the vehicle (heated seats, air-conditioning etc) are turned off.
The plug-in hybrid also comes with dynamic chassis control to ensure maximum customer comfort. The system constantly adapts to suit the road and driving conditions. Drivers opting for SportLine Plus or L&K trim will have Virtual Cockpit as standard – a customisable 10.25” display replacing the traditional dials behind the steering wheel.
The Superb iV follows the new Scala and recently revealed Kamiq by featuring the new third-generation infotainment (MIB3). Featuring an in-built SIM card for data connection and wireless connection for SmartLink and Apple CarPlay, this new system provides real-time traffic information and online support, allowing route suggestions to be calculated more quickly and accurately. The system can also notify the driver about traffic jams in real-time and swiftly calculate suitable alternative routes.
The new Superb iV will arrive in the UK in January 2020.

What to watch out for
Owner of new Skoda Superb 2.0 TDI L&K estate with 750 miles on it could not get reverse in a parking space. Dealer mechanic came out and fixed after a bit of a struggle. Perhaps a stretched shifter cable?
07-06-2016:Report of failure of seat and mirror electrics of used 3100 mile 2015 Superb L&K purchased 5 weeks previously. Dealer found wiring loom in drivers door disconnected. Could have had a bump. Maybe water got into the memory function. Dealer still scratching his head.
06-08-2016:Report of aux-in socket from iPod in April 2016 Skoda Superb intermittently losing connection while playing music. Skoda aware of the problem, but no fix available to date.
10-01-2017:Report of metallic squeal from 7-speed dry clutch DSG of 2016 Skoida Superb 1.4 TSI 150 CoD. Metallic squeal when changing from 1st to 2nd and then 2nd to 3rd. Dealer took a week to replace the dual clutch pack. Apparently there is an advisory out for these symptoms, Skoda's ref TPI 2042705/5.
29-09-2017:Complaint about dampers fitted to new Skoda Superb 190 TDI SEL estate manual, purchased in April "with a few options but not DCC". Owner finds that when driving the car on indifferent roads the standard dampers are "dire/woeful". "If it hits a bump it just bounces across the road as there is no rebound control."
10-11-2017:On a 7000 mile April 2017 Skoda Superb Executive estate a warning light appeared on the dashboard saying 'Front Assist not Available'. The light has been on ever since. Local Skoda dealer says that that the radar unit at the front of the car needs recalibration. He isn't equipped to do this, and says that the cost will not be covered by warranty. The dealer confirms that there's no sign of any physical damage that could have caused the fault. No adjustments have been made to the car - steering or suspension - that might be responsible.
01-11-2018:Report of corroded rear brake discs on 2016 Skoda Superb Estate TDI 190 auto L&K at 27k miles. At the recent service on 17/10/18 dealer advised replacing the discs and pads at a cost of £283. Wear and tear so not covered by warranty. Skoda later offered a £50 voucher against future work.
22-02-2019:Report of failed nearside rear wheel bearing of 2016 Skoda Superb 2.0TDI L&K estate at 17,450 miles (still within 3 year warranty).
07-03-2019:Report that infotainment screen of 2015 Skoda Superb estate screen seems to have stopped working. It keeps rebooting and always has "Skoda navigation" message on the screen. Owner can no longer use the radio or anything else. Even the reverse camera.
18-04-2019:Report of reader ordering a Skoda Superb estate 2.0 TSI 272 PS 4x4 DSG to do 25,000 miles a year. Quoted 3 months delivery. Apparently 3 in country. Then turned out all sold and delivery date revised to December 2019.
26-04-2019:Report of faults with electric tailgate of 2017 4WD Skoda Superb DSG. Owner had a problem with the electric hatchback when she first owned the car which was eventually fixed by the dealer. However, intermittently the hatch closes while she is putting the dogs in and a couple of weeks ago when she happened to look out into the road, the hatch was wide open. The car was locked at the time and the key was in a key safe. This happened twice. Dealer cannot find a fault.
06-07-2019:To meet RDE1 emissions rules, Skoda Superb petrol and diesel models are no longer available with manual transmissions.
06-07-2019:Useful discussion about 7-speed dry clutch DQ200 DSGs in https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/442553-which-dsg/ (includes a video of how to change the mineral oil in the DQ200).
15-07-2019:Ongoing issues with the 1.5 TSI engine with no resolution from Skoda.
