The Kylaq is the most affordable compact vehicle in Skoda India’s lineup. The SUV sticks to the Czech Republic car marker’s design language with a split headlight and a butterfly front grille. In many ways, the Kylaq comes across as a mini Kushaq. The sub 4 metre SUV’s complete price list will be revealed on December 2 along with opening bookings. Currently, Skoda has only announced that the SUV will start from Rs 7.89 lakh, ex-showroom. The cabin features a dual-tone colour scheme. The top model includes a 10.1-inch infotainment system, an 8-inch digital instrument cluster, automatic climate control, and rear air conditioner vents.

The Kylaq is expected to receive a 5-star safety rating like the Slavia and Kushaq.

The Kylaq comes with a single-engine option. It is powered by a 1-litre TSI engine, delivering 114 bhp and 178 Nm of torque. The compact SUV offers two transmission choices — a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic.
