2024 Skoda Superb New vs Old Superb 

2024 Skoda Superb New vs Old Superb 2023
The Czech brand Škoda presented the fourth generation of the flagship Superb model, which received many innovations from the outside and inside.
Although the Superb is labeled as a next-generation car, the Superb's styling is evolutionary and embodies the definition of a facelift. The new Superb received improved matrix LED headlights with 40 percent additional light emission. It's also available with upgraded adaptive dampers that are standard on Laurin & Klement's flagship trim.
While the wheelbase remains unchanged at 2,841 millimeters, there have been noticeable changes to the model's proportions, as both body styles are now 15mm narrower. The liftback is 43mm longer and 12mm taller than its predecessor, while the wagon is 40mm longer and 5mm higher.
The body is significantly more refined than before, as the hatchback's drag coefficient has been reduced by 10 percent to a Cd of 0.23. At the same time, the station wagon provides a 15 percent reduction in Cd to 0.25.
Repackaging has paid dividends in terms of headroom for both front and rear passengers, while cargo volume has jumped by 20 liters to 645 liters for the liftback and 30 liters to 690 liters for the wagon.
Interior
While the exterior design is largely unchanged, the interior has been updated and ditched most (but not all) of the traditional controls. In their place are a few vintage buttons for quick access, though the screens take up most of the time to access functions. Speaking of the gearbox, the lever has been moved to the steering column to free up space between the seats.
The infotainment system will be either 10-inch or 13-inch depending on the trim level, while a 10-inch digital driver display will be standard. For an additional fee, a projection display will be offered for the first time on the Superb.
The main feature of the central console will be those three handles with 1.25-inch screens. Skoda calls them Smart Dials and notes that they are customizable in the sense that you can choose what they do. The external ones are used to adjust the heating and ventilation of the seats, as well as the internal temperature.
The knob in the middle provides access to volume, motion modes, intelligent air conditioning, fan speed and air direction. However, you can choose only four of them in the infotainment menu. This central smart dial is surrounded by the usual buttons for the windscreen ventilation, rear window heating, air recirculation and automatic air conditioning functions.
Like any Skoda, the new Superb is an unassuming car that offers plenty of space and incredible practicality for a shrinking segment. Opel Insignia, Ford Mondeo and Renault Talisman have already been discontinued. Mid-size sedans are few and far between in Europe, with only Peugeot still selling the 508, and the Mazda 6 and Toyota Camry to remember.
