Skoda has given a major facelift to the Slavia midsize sedan for 2026. It gets a range of updates, including a new automatic gearbox, sharper styling, a revised interior and much-needed feature additions. Here, we explain its trim line-up, available powertrains, colour options, variant-wise features and our recommendation on the variant to go for.
2026 Skoda Slavia price and powertrains
Prices for the Slavia range between Rs 10 lakh and Rs 18.84 lakh. The Skoda sedan is offered in 12 variants across six trims, namely Classic, Classic+, Signature, Sportline, Prestige and Monte Carlo. The smaller 1.0-litre TSI is available from the base Classic trim onwards, whereas automatic options are available from the trim above it. The more powerful 1.5-litre TSI is limited to the top-end Prestige and Monte Carlo trims.
The Skoda Slavia is offered with two direct-injection turbo-petrol engine options. There’s a 1.0-litre 3-cylinder mill that produces 115hp and 178Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual or an 8-speed automatic transmission. The top-end trims also offer a larger 1.5-litre 4-cylinder mill, developing 150hp and 250Nm, with transmission duties handled by a 7-speed DCT. Additionally, this engine also gets cylinder deactivation tech that enables it to operate on two cylinders, depending on the load, to improve fuel efficiency. Claimed mileage figures for the 1.0-litre manual and automatic versions are 19.76kpl and 19.50kpl, respectively, and 18.79kpl for the 1.5-litre engine.
2026 Skoda Slavia exterior and interior colours
The standard Skoda Slavia is available in nine colours to choose from, namely Arctic Silver, Cappuccino Beige, Shimla Green, Steel Grey, Candy White, Carbon Steel, Brilliant Silver, Lava Blue, Cherry Red and Deep Black. Select colours for the Monte Carlo trim are also available as dual-tone options with a black roof. Below is a list of the colours on offer depending on the chosen trim.
Inside, the standard Slavia gets a beige-and-black theme with silver-beige inserts. Sportline and Monte Carlo versions come with an all-black interior; the latter takes it one step further with red accents and stitching.

Which variant of the 2026 Skoda Slavia should you buy?
For most buyers, the Signature trim is the one we’d recommend. As a mid-level trim, it comes with a well-equipped feature list for its price, and its automatic version is a good pick for under Rs 15 lakh. Those looking for all the bells and whistles can upgrade to the top-of-the-line Prestige trim. This trim also offers the more powerful 1.5-litre TSI engine for those looking for added performance.
