- Priced at Rs. 11 lakh
- Available with 1.0-litre MT and AT
Everything that you have seen in our photos and videos about the Skoda Slavia is based on either the top-spec Prestige or Monte Carlo variants. They have everything the Slavia offers and can be had with either engine option. But what if your budget is lower, but you still want a decently kitted-out Skoda sedan? Then the Slavia Classic Plus should be on your radar. It’s priced at Rs. 11 lakh for the MT variant, Rs. 12.50 lakh for the AT variant and here is what you get.
Skoda Slavia Classic Plus Exterior
The overall shape of the vehicle and the dimensions are unchanged across the range. Over the base Classic variant, it gets 16-inch alloy wheels, a full LED light package and black grained front and rear diffuser stripes.
Skoda Slavia Classic Plus interior and features
The cabin is a dual-tone black and beige with fabric seats and a leather wrap for the gear lever in the AT variant. In terms of features it gets a 3.5-inch black-and-white instrument cluster, sunroof, climate control, height adjustment for the driver’s seat, reach and rake adjustment for the steering wheel, power mirrors, cruise control and 7.0-inch display for the infotainment system with wired phone mirroring.
Skoda Slavia Classic Plus powertrain option
The only powertrain option for this variant is Skoda’s 1.0-litre TSI petrol producing 114bhp and 178Nm. This engine can be had with either a six-speed manual or a new eight-speed AT.
Skoda Slavia Classic Plus competition check
In terms of rivals, the Honda City range starts at Rs. 12.10 lakh for the base SV MT while the entry-level V AT is priced at Rs. 14.51 lakh. The Hyundai Verna HX2 MT is priced at Rs. 11 lakh while the closest AT in its range is the HX6 CVT that priced at Rs. 14.46 lakh. The Volkswagen Virtus Comfortline is priced at Rs. 10.71 lakh while the AT range starts with the 1.0-litre Highline AT that’s priced at Rs. 14.71 lakh. However, the Virtus will get a facelift next month and then be on par with the Slavia in terms of pricing and features and of course the eight-speed AT. While the MT faces some tough competition, the Slavia 1.0-litre AT is actually in a league of its own due to its significantly lower pricing.
