As seen in at its world debut in Geneva last year, the new Superb is influenced by the company's latest design language, characterized by angular lines and a strong shoulder line. Based on the Volkswagen Group's MQB platform, the Skoda Superb shares 50% of its internals with the 2015 VW Passat (B8). It is 75 kg lighter than its predecessor, despite growing 80 mm in wheelbase, 47 mm in width and 28 mm in overall length.
