Skoda Auto India has launched the all-new Slavia Monte Carlo edition in India.
Taking the sports theme further, the company also introduced an all-new Sportline range within the Kushaq and Slavia lineup and announced a path-breaking offer for these cars upping the value and choice quotient for Indian customers.
Commenting on the new introductions Skoda Auto India, Brand Director Petr Janeba said, “The Monte Carlo badge has a strong connection with customers, reflecting the spirit of sport and victory.
This is part of our strategy to grow the Skoda brand in India, which is one of the largest markets for us outside Europe. This special car will have a strong appeal with customers looking for unique, subtle and sporty aesthetics, projecting a discrete sense of style. We have also introduced two new trims – Slavia Sportline and Kushaq Sportline — reflecting our intent to keep the range evolving and contemporary, offering greater choice and value to customers.
The Sportline is perfect for customers who seek the sporty aesthetics of the Monte Carlo at a more accessible price point. Together with the new Monte Carlo and Sportline offerings, we look forward to substantially growing the Skoda family in India.”
As the launch of this all-new range marks the 112th anniversary of the company’s debut at Rallye Monte Carlo, Skoda Auto India has lined up benefits for customers buying the sport-inspired Monte Carlo and Sportline range of the Kushaq and Slavia.
The first 5,000 customers booking any of these four cars will receive benefits of ₹30,000. The offer is operational immediately and will be valid until September 6, 2024.
At the heart of this car beats the proven and tested 1.0 and 1.5 TSI engines. The 1.0 TSI is available with a six-speed manual and automatic. The 1.5 TSI sends power to the front wheels through a seven-speed DSG. The cars come exclusively in the Tornado Red and Candy White colours. Both these options come with a contrasting Deep Black roof as standard. The Window Garnish houses an all-black theme as do the ORVMs.
The black treatment continues to the Radiator Grille Surround, the Garnish around the Fog Lamp, and over the Black R16 Alloy wheels.
The rear also gets a Black Sporty Rear Diffuser and a Black Bumper Garnish. Rounding off the Monte Carlo highlights outside are the subtle and classy door handles finished in Dark Chrome and all the lettering in the exteriors of the Slavia Monte Carlo are in Black.
