Skoda Kylaq Signature Plus AT Review

Overall Score

/ 10

With prices starting under Rs. 8 Lakh, the Kylaq offers good value when you consider some of its variants. We will get to the value proposition later in this review. For now, let’s focus on the design and packaging of this new crossover.

What is it?

7.5

/ 10

The Kylaq represents a new entry point for the brand Skoda in India. It’s a sub-4 metre crossover designed entirely in India. With prices starting under Rs. 8 Lakh, the Kylaq offers good value when you consider some of its variants. We will get to the value proposition later in this review. For now, let’s focus on the design and packaging of this new crossover.

Measuring 3,995mm in length, featuring a 2,566mm wheelbase and 189mm ground clearance, the Kylaq boasts ideal dimensions and clearance to deal with broken city streets. In terms of appearance, the Kylaq has been designed using Skoda's new design language. There is a slight resemblance to the Kushaq in the grille design, but apart from that, the detailing on the Kylaq is fairly new. Elements such as the split LED headlights, shape of the bumper, and the way the bonnet has been treated when it comes to the cuts and creases are all entirely new.

Like the Kushaq, the Kylaq features minimal overhangs at both the front and rear to maximise space efficiency. At the rear, the first thing that will grab your attention is the compact and neatly designed taillights. Overall, the Kylaq is a good-looking crossover and has got a mature edge to its design which is bound to age well.

Is the cabin of the Kylaq any good?

/ 10

The cabin has a positively restrained look, featuring a clean design for the dashboard and the finer elements. Speaking of which, the 10-inch infotainment screen and the digital driver’s cluster have been neatly integrated into the dash. Although, I am not a fan of the touch-sensitive controls for the climate control since they aren’t easy to use on the go. Otherwise, The Kylaq is ergonomically sound, with all the controls falling easily to hand and a driving position that is pretty much spot on. Moreover, the quality of plastics is also good, and overall, it is refreshing to see the consistency in fit and finish across the cabin. However, the predominantly black cabin doesn’t offer much in terms of soft-touch materials, but it looks and feels quite well-made.

Seating comfort is among the Kylaq’s strong suits. The rear seats, in particular, are surprisingly comfortable. The cabin could do with more shoulder room to seat three adults in some comfort, but the way the rear seatback and base are contoured and how well you are enveloped is impressive indeed. There is no shortage of under-thigh support, and the recline angle is spot-on, too. There is a good amount of knee and headroom for the rear passengers. So, if you want a compact crossover to be chauffeured in, the Kylaq fits the bill, but if you are someone who would ferry five people more often than not, then there are similarly priced alternatives that are wider inside. Of course, the Kylaq can accommodate three abreast in the back, but that’s with all three sitting with their elbows tucked in.

The most expensive variant offers you LED projector headlights, 17-inch alloy wheels, cruise control, TPMS, auto headlamps, single-pane sunroof, 10-inch infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, rear-view camera, six airbags, and ABS and ESP as standard. What’s unique to the Kylaq is the electric adjustment and ventilation function for both driver and front passenger seats.

Is the Kylaq good to drive?

7.5

/ 10

The Kylaq is offered with a single-engine option. It’s the familiar 1.0-litre, three-cylinder, TSI petrol engine available with either a six-speed manual or a six-speed torque converter automatic transmission. This direct-injection turbocharged engine produces 115bhp and 178Nm of torque, which are decent figures for the segment. The engine has that typical three-cylinder thrum, though it is notable only at high revs, and the noise isn’t unpleasant in any way. In terms of performance, this is a turbo engine, yes, but it responds strongly even at low revs. It has a good amount of low-end torque, and you don’t have to wait for the turbo to spool up.

The Kylaq’s impressive performance is, in no small part, due to the six-speed torque converter automatic, which is fairly quick and responsive when kept in S mode. At slow speeds, there is no hesitancy in stop-and-start traffic, and the downshifts are better masked compared to rivals with a DCT gearbox. On part throttle, it upshifts early at the meat of the torque band to make quick progress. Overall, this is a solid drivetrain with ample grunt for daily driving.

We spent a whole day driving the Kylaq primarily on smooth roads across Goa. On a few rutted, corrugated stretches, the Kylaq remained mostly flat and surprisingly comfortable, with the suspension absorbing irregularities quite well.

Should you buy the Kylaq?

7.5

/ 10

The Skoda Kylaq may not leave a strong first impression when you look at it on paper. There is just one petrol engine option, and it’s missing quite a few convenience features like ADAS, 360-degree camera system, and drive modes. However, it is one of those cars that you absolutely need to spend some time with to be impressed. It’s good looking, well-put-together, comfortable for a small family, and quite pleasing to drive. In terms of pricing, the base variant isn’t barebones and represents good value, although the same cannot be said for the top-spec Prestige variant, which is priced close to rivals that offer a lot more features.

Our pick would be the Signature Plus AT variant at Rs. 12.40 lakh, which is fairly loaded and gets you features such as auto climate control, a 10-inch infotainment system with wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, rear-view camera, 60:40 split functionality for the rear seat, auto headlights, and more.

Skoda Kylaq Signature Plus AT Reviews

4.7/5
(21 Ratings) 4 Reviews
Powerful and dynamically engineered car
Overview of Signature+ variant: - Kylaq is a powerful and dynamically engineered car. It offers essential features along with Skoda's "simply clever" innovations. With a 5-star safety rating and European build quality, it delivers both comfort and peace of mind. The car is powered by a reliable and well-regarded, trustworthy TSI engine paired with a TC gearbox (VW). Overall, Kylaq targets a broad customer base with its aggressively priced Classic, Signature, and Signature+ variants compared to competitors. Pros: - 1. Upright driver seating provides a clear view of the bonnet and road. 2. Powerful and refined engine. 3. Safety features not compromised except anti-theft alarm in Signature+ variant. 4. Solid "thud" effect of the doors adds to passenger confidence. 5. Sports mode delivers an engaging drive, especially fun to drive using manual mode. 6. Excellent thigh support for all passengers and the driver, the bucket seat accommodates well. 7. All seats get adjustable headrests. 8. Large boot space will accommodate travel suitcases. 9. Elegant styling without excessive cuts and sharp lines. 10. Good build quality and heavy bonnet, dicky door. 11. Suspension is tuned for a comfortable ride, as it takes all the bad roads well. 12. Light steering at low speed, it adds weight at higher speeds. 13. Confident cornering performance. 14. Budget-friendly than its competitors. 15. The 10-inch touch screen is smooth and lag-free. 16. Good air conditioning performance resolved previous complaints. 17. 15,000 km service or 1 year offered, which gives its competitors an added advantage for reliability. 18. Good service packages enhance customer confidence. 19. LED headlight provides ample coverage, no complaints for me. 20. Limited body roll. 21. The smooth TC gearbox does 75% of the DCT job. Elegant shifting of gears without any jerk. 22. 60:40 seat split with rear armrest provides comfort and convenience. Cons: - 1. Rear camera quality is not acceptable. 2. No front parking sensors. 3. City mileage remains 8-9 (new car, I have done 100kms only, expecting to improve). 4. TPMS provides set tyre pressure alerts only. The actual tyre pressure of the wheels is not displayed. 5. Rear wiper and paddle shifter missing. 6. Dual-tone alloy wheels would have enhanced the looks and customer preference for Signature+. 7. No gear shift indicators in Drive mode. Sports mode has gear indicators. 8. Bumpers are not body colored. Missing the completeness of the car for the Signature+ variant is worth 15L cost. 9. Occasional plastic rattles: interior plastics can be better, but not bad. 10. Suitable for two well-built adults in a rear seat. 11. Leg room could have been offered better by compromising a bit of boot space. 12. A bit of engine noise at lower RPM can be felt inside the cabin. Conclusion: - If you are an enthusiastic driver who values performance, cabin safety, elegant design, comfort, and a reliable TSI engine with a butter-smooth TC gearbox, the Kylaq will be your excellent choice. If sunroof and other features are not in your priorities, Kylaq will win your heart and mind in this budget.

Awesome machine
Great car to drive. Handles beautifully. Looks sporty and muscular. SKODA dealerships and service centers are not the best in the business, though. Great turbo engine with some next-level driving dynamics. SKODA dealership’s behavior in general is the only con.

Family pack and Stylish car.
Prons The interior looks perfect, feel comfortable while driving in city bumper to bumper. Steering Handling is perfect, and I love the disc brakes. Extremely satisfied with the boot space for the family range. Cons The rear seat is not so comfortable when three adults are placed. Mileage is not up to mark. Missing ADAS or 360-degree camera in top model. A little pricy to model.
