Great review Thomas. Comprehensive and really helped in making an informed decision on my next car. A Skoda superb sportline will be in my driveway soon!
That actually would be an awesome aprils fools. I am sure I would enjoy it too... Though I am from Germany I watch his english reviews because he is so passionate and honest about all the cars.
you all probably dont give a damn but does anyone know a method to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
Old review I know, but on the Skodas, you can also make the seats fold flat. The seat bottoms in the back row lift up and go forward. You can then fold the seat backs totally flat. This is available on most VAG kombis actually.
"Buttons appear they will!" - that was quick! Also, I thought those two buttons, close by, both with an A on them would be interesting! But your whole review was interesting, as always. Good to get memory seats without 'leather'. Yes, Thomas, use your own English, use your own words - don't change. Oh, and nice car!
He looks like superman Does British language better than most brits Does a very old-fashioned British review And is greman Love it Thanks for the review
at 18:10 if you look at the top of the B pillar, you can see there are two holes (one on each side) where you can attach the security net when the rear seats are fold
PanFortress the ultimate sleeper , when I do Little races with other people on the road I always win and the other people that lost they get so triggered
@@sticksman7819 Just changing oil every 15k or 60k (DSG), also fuel consumption is 10,5l/100. Engine is downpowered one from Cupra / Golf R range so should last long with no problems. If you choose some one-year used car, its still will have 4y warranty and price drop is tremendous.
@@PanFortress thanks for the reply.i have been watching reviews on this car and the level of kit is endless.you get so much for your money.also been looking at SUVs but the market is saturated as estates seem to be getting lost nowadays.ok, SUVs have the raised driving position but the superb look's well...... superb.
Excellent review Thomas. You spend so much time with your reviews and explain features of cars in detail. Well done and bTW, the Superb SportLine looks great. It's a shame that the FL version that's already out went short of offering full format LED lights! The infotainment unit is new and better seemingly but no change to lights!
Excellent review. I agree about the gauges, they could have used the same as the VW Passatts which although not sporty still look more up to date. Also they seem to have improved the seats over the previous Superbs. I remember how you said in a past review they were not comfortable for taller drivers . Now with this release Skoda seem to have rectified the problem & listened to you which is a very good thing indeed. Oh, & I liked it when you surprised that Porsche driver with the unexpected acceleration, he must be thinking "What the...that car went faster than me & it was a Skoda. Bah!" XD .Cheers.
Yes does real carbon fiber cost that much more? On a side note I think the lack of digital dials for the driver is more forgivable on the Sportsline model than on others, not only is it one of the few differences between the more expensive Passat, but the Sportsline is branded as being 'sporty' and it almost feels more sporty to have the old-fashion dials...
Thomas & Autogefuhl are definitely the best Auto reviewers on UA-cam for me. We are trying to decide between The Superb Sportline Estate 280 and the Kodiaq SE-L 190 TDI, swaying towards the Superb after this review. Top work 👌
I used to hate Skodas a few years back! It used to be the design, it was so boring and very old fashioned, but with VW and Audi design cues, I love them now.
Thank you, Thomas, that was a very comprehensive review. You spoke about items that most reviews do not mention that I find important. I like how you approach the driving section. Finally, a review that shows the instrument panel and the view out the front of the car. I own an Octavia Combi at the moment and I was considering the Superb combi as a replacement and I think Australia will also get the sport line too.
I hope Skoda will launch an official RS model! I think a Superb with RS parts would look great 😍💪 The red color of the Superb and the modern design with these black elements looks very coherent!! 👍 The new superb is the best overall package in this segment 👑 Very entertaining review as allways ;)
The small space in the box under the armrest, is for a tablet (9,7" max. incl. cover), the save place for my iPad. I know no other car, which gives you this possibility.
Another great review Thomas! I have been waiting a while for this one. I am also glad they have an alcantara option because many other brands don't, it would be interesting to do a comparison video of the vs Passat vs A6 to see the differences :-). +autogefühl
Stylist looking car. Another good and comprehensive review, Thomas. I have seen dozens of them since I by a coincidenze find your review of the VW Golf GTE a few years ago. A car i have owned since last fall. In Norway electric and hybrid cars are very popular these days.
Thomas I heard at least 3-4 times from you about "BMW driver's that want to buy a Superb..." It's so funny! :D I think Audi drivers can buy Superb because it's also VAG product and feels really similar but BMW feels totally different. Can you really compare Superd with BMW 5 series "sheer driving pleasure"?)) Superb is a nice comfy and pretty car with good value for money ratio but BMW's are for people that want something more sporty and special than VW-Skoda-Seat and pay for that extra money. Some people buy Tissot & some buy IWC ;) IMAO
+Vitalii Gladun yes if u want understatement. The superb feels somehow easier and slimmer, the 5series is also great but feels like a complicated space ship in comparison to the superb
I was never a fan of Skoda. Probably because of their older smaller models like Fabia. Octavia never impressed me that much. And then I took a Superb Estate 2010 2.0 170 a few years back as a rent a car and was amazed at how good it was. For a very affordable car, it was great. I had a drive at the newish Octavia and wasnt impressed, but that Superb left a very good impression on me. If I was in the market for a family limo/hatch/estate, I would take the Superb, no question about it,
So this engine can be remapped to 350bhp!! Just stage 1... Under 5s to 100kmh that's just crazy and I love it.. I am Czech and after VW decided they move the superb manufacturing out of Czech because cost cutting you just know the quality will be degrading... Btw in the most beautiful green antracit colour this is by far the best car ever made in Czech❤️👌
Good review as always Thomas! you are absolutly right with your recommandation about the seats, i just order the Superb Sportline and testet the Style an L&K before but the feeling in the Sportline is much better, very comfortable and good support. But the overall feeling in the car is not very sporty, more build for comfortable riding. But after 3,5Years driving a Audi A4 with S- line package where you know if there is a stamp on the postmark or not it is fine for me.
I like this car a lot and its on my shortlist for my next company work horse. But the only thing that puts me off is that I've seen a lot of examples where the glovebox doesn't line up properly when closed. I'm a nerd for attention to detail like you Thomas
Your reviews are Superb Thomas! I have the Superb 206TSI and is almost as you described the Sports Line. However it has the “animal skin” seats and not the alcantra. :P Also, did you see the umbrellas in the front doors? A Superb feature...
I would like them to add a mild hybrid system so that in sailing mode you can have some more severe 'engine braking' - maybe the car could potentially achieve much better mpg if the driver drives in a way that makes good use of this.
Love this trim, especially the seats The mysterious space at 10:55 is to be able to put a tablet (ipad or otherwise) in the armrest hidden compartment.
Another great review - but would disagree on the dials, I like them - think the brand needs classy touches and the dials are clear and classy. My only disappointment is the black grill, needs a little chrome or something to lift it.
I wonder if Skoda is not allowed to use other materials or what as a part of VW group, but those decorative pieces they use in the interior TOTALLY ruin it for me, same on the new Octavia and Kodiak. I'm talking about the fake carbon fiber, which is just painted plastic, it looks so cheap. Why not use aluminium? Just brushed aluminium, that's it, that would look so much better and I bet anyone would pay a couple of euros more to get it. The biggest irony is, that on lower trim levels they actually have a material that looks like brushed aluminium, except it's a bit more dark and plastic, but it looks far better than any of these glossy fake carbon ones.
Thomas as normal a very informative review. It would be interesting to see a comparison between this Skoda and the Jaguar XF Sportbrake you reviewed some months ago also.
If this car version was on sale at the time the car was launched at market for sure I get them but I buy a Superb L&K with the 2.0 TDI 190cv that for sure is a great car. God review Thomas!
Hi, Was würdest du sagen, ist sportlicher... der Octavia RS oder der Superb Sportline? Ich schwanke derzeit zwischen beiden Modellen und kann mich einfach nicht entscheiden :(
Hi, Thomas. How do you get your cars for reviews? Do the companies offer them to you or do you have to ask them. Could you do some Lambo, Ferrari or other supercar in the future? It has been long time you've done a supercar review. This one was great as usual btw. Superb looks really huge inside and i really like the outside design. Will you get a chance to do Octavia rs 245?
thanks david! We do have some supercars, just use the youtube search with "autogefuehl ferrari" for example And we ll keep u updated with the RS245 of course
Hi, I've seen all your supercar reviews already. Do not think I would ask you about review before checking whether or not you have already done it. I was just asking for more supercar reviews because nobody on internet does it quite like you. I would love to see you in laFerrari for example or 918 spyder or other car normal person will never have a chance to drive because when you do it, it feels more real than other presenters. Thx.
Thomas in terms of comfort would you rate this version higher than their normal version ? Here in Australia most versions are top spec , I am chasing comfort speed ,acceleration doesn't enthuse me / BTW great review once again .
Hey Paul, both very good cars for sure. The Superb offers you more space, the A4 is sportier. Check out which one you can get without leather seats in your market and which one has the better price
Did this one also have the umbrellas in each front door and the ice scraper in the filler cap? Was the flashlight magnetic? I saw it in another of your reviews so it would be interesting if these are still features.
Hi Thomas - Quick question... do you experience road and wind noise from the front doors at speeds above 80km/h? I have the non-sport version and experience a lot of road and wind noise as soon as the speed goes up. Btw great review as always.
Ok weird. Maybe I should contact my car dealer and have him check it. I thought that this noise was "normal" and was the reason for the general lower price.
I really don't get why they would promote a car in this color. Same with Honda with the red Civic we see everywhere. The Skoda Superb was always a favorite of mine. Nice car with a lot of luxury options for a great price. I'm not fond of the TSI engines (reliability), but with the bigger engines VAG's downsizing problem shouldn't be a thing.
This is so close to what an "RS" would be, and what the Passat is that there is barely room if any to move, at least on the 2L platform, going upto a 2.5L and/or putting in more aggressive intake/exhaust, cooling and turbo systems, but that would defeat their brand segmentation and standardization strategies. If they start making exceptions, and say well this car gets a bigger exhaust/intake, and we are going to upgrade or manufacture uprated turbo's, then its a slippery slope, it leads to things like 'well we think it would be better if the internal fan grills were like this in this car' and even though it is only one modification, or one part, that is how over time you end up with many components. But they might get away (from VW) with fitting a 2.5l since it is such a big vehicle and it would help produce low-end torque for towing, and couple that with the 48V mild hybrid system, and good tuning/integration, they might get a really torquey (at low rpm) vehicle that drives/handles and tows really well, and pulls 0-100kph at ~4 seconds in performance mode with electric assist. The problem is that people are already comparing it to E-Class and BMW 5 series, and Audi A4, not the Passat which is supposed to be almost a tier higher.
Great exterior, Škoda is pushing the envelope here, stylish yet stealth. Slightly disappointing interior, with DIALS COPIED FROM WARSZAWA (1950's). However a sporty car must have multi-link suspension. Thomas never mentioned the type but I'm pretty sure it ain't there.
Der 280 PS-Motor hat bislang nur das 6-Gang-DSG. Das schmale Fach in der Mittelarmlehne ist für Tablets gedacht. Und last but not least: Das Fahrwerk (DCC) unterscheidet sich nicht von dem der anderen Versionen. ;-)
yes, the daylight running lights are all LED, while the low beam is xenon and high-beam also xenon( not sure about the high beam though). I guess the VAG group is trying to boost up the passat while banning such features as the full led lights, digital dials and more from the superb, otherwise i'm sure the superb would outsell the passat by far. A shame, if you ask me. Maybe we'll see something awesome introduced with the superb's facelift
Superb Review. Very detailed and explained in plain English with a cool accent. Keep the good work coming. Thanks from the UK.
+Jaya Chelliah thx!

cheers, feel free to recommend us!
So nice to see a Car Review that you got in your Garage, just in White :P Great Review Thomas as always!
awesome =)
Sean Dominko Right. He did it when I was searching the best car.
He looks like superman
Does British language better than most brits
Does a very old-fashioned British review
And is greman
Love it
Thanks for the review
hehe thank you =)
at 18:10 if you look at the top of the B pillar, you can see there are two holes (one on each side) where you can attach the security net when the rear seats are fold
Got one, perfect sleeper also very comfy on bad roads - unless it speed bumps.
PanFortress the ultimate sleeper , when I do Little races with other people on the road I always win and the other people that lost they get so triggered
What's it like to live with,regarding running costs,tyres?Im a Volvo man and really like my estates as I play drums and is great to carry kit around.

Hi, the cupholder between driver and passenger is designed to open a bottle with one hand...see the risen spots.
Facelift has to bring Matrix Light, HUD and maybe full Digital Cockpit and its perfect for 2017 again.
agree
I really dont like the gages they are to oldschool for me. They need to come up with something new, more modern in the facelift for that
I don't think we'll see a facelift for the Superb in 2017. 2018 sounds more likely.

yes indeed well remembered, the normal Superb seats are a little short for tall people, but the SportLine sports seats fit very well!
Skoda Superb ........... a really Superb.
I quite like the sporty twist for the Superb. Love the seats but not so sure about the fake carbon fiber trim.

I am looking forward to get it. now I drive the Superb 2.
keep up your great reviews!
thanks and enjoy!
great review
I like the Skoda Superb, a dream car,especially in this sportline version but I'll rather go for a tdi engine.
great review and your english is better than a lot of people i know ordered mine in white tdi 190 cant wait for january all the best from ireland
+daryl lally nice!!
and getting out of audi a6 to get this
I hope Skoda will launch an official RS model! I think a Superb with RS parts would look great 😍💪
The red color of the Superb and the modern design with these black elements looks very coherent!! 👍
The new superb is the best overall package in this segment 👑
Very entertaining review as allways ;)
So coherent that the red colour has been dropped, bad decision Skoda
thanks m8 !
The small space in the box under the armrest, is for a tablet (9,7" max. incl. cover), the save place for my iPad. I know no other car, which gives you this possibility.

You know the little flashlight in the boot, it's magnetic. So you can stick it on the wheel arch at night if you need to change a tyre. Very useful!

awesome :) We ll be in Oslo soon for the Opel Ampera-e test!
If I end up living in Germany/Europe, it'll be on my list.
This would be fun on the autobahn with a stage 3, ultimate sleeper =D
You are a legend!! :) that thing MOVES
You are very kind :)
Best looking Superb trim, and best looking skoda for that matter... If only i had the money, hopefully one day :D
Hey look, it's a Škaudi.
Beautiful car and another great review Thomas. Again something different to buy rather than a Audi, BMW or Mercedes. Seats look super too.
thanks pal !

Great review, vielen Dank
Excellent car, rather preview that Škoda Superb with that color than VW or Audi. 05-01-2018
Awesome Thomas!
yay!
Your reviews are Superb Thomas! I have the Superb 206TSI and is almost as
you described the Sports Line. However it has the “animal skin” seats and not the alcantra. :P
Also, did you see the umbrellas in the front doors? A Superb feature...
Yeah thats cool feature:)
What a great review Thomas, only you could “ride” a car ! 👍🏻😉
🙏👌
Excellent review 👍
I would LOVE those seats in my Golf Variant. Veilen dank!
I would like them to add a mild hybrid system so that in sailing mode you can have some more severe 'engine braking' - maybe the car could potentially achieve much better mpg if the driver drives in a way that makes good use of this.
Another great review, Thomas. A Superb RS with the same engine as an Audi RS3 maybe.....?
thanks ! Oh that would be some high hitter
Love this trim, especially the seats
The mysterious space at 10:55 is to be able to put a tablet (ipad or otherwise) in the armrest hidden compartment.

God review Thomas!
thanks!
Hi, Was würdest du sagen, ist sportlicher... der Octavia RS oder der Superb Sportline? Ich schwanke derzeit zwischen beiden Modellen und kann mich einfach nicht entscheiden :(

Hi, Thomas. How do you get your cars for reviews? Do the companies offer them to you or do you have to ask them. Could you do some Lambo, Ferrari or other supercar in the future? It has been long time you've done a supercar review.
This one was great as usual btw. Superb looks really huge inside and i really like the outside design. Will you get a chance to do Octavia rs 245?
thanks david!
We do have some supercars, just use the youtube search with "autogefuehl ferrari" for example
And we ll keep u updated with the RS245 of course
Hi, I've seen all your supercar reviews already. Do not think I would ask you about review before checking whether or not you have already done it. I was just asking for more supercar reviews because nobody on internet does it quite like you. I would love to see you in laFerrari for example or 918 spyder or other car normal person will never have a chance to drive because when you do it, it feels more real than other presenters. Thx.
thanks lets see what we can do
Lovely car. Is premium fuel required for this car, or is regular ok?
95 octane is usual afaik
Thomas in terms of comfort would you rate this version higher than their normal version ? Here in Australia most versions are top spec , I am chasing comfort speed ,acceleration doesn't enthuse me / BTW great review once again .
+Manish Vishnoi thanks! Will those sport seats are very good for tall people
Fantastic car and very good review Thomas, however im sure that there is 6speed dsg box in 280bhp version :)
The latest 272 version is 7 speed after WLTP. Not sure what version Thomas has but the original is indeed 6sp DSG
hey thomas I'm renewing my company car and can't decide between a Superb combi sportline and a an Audi A4 avant S line, which would you choose?
Hey Paul, both very good cars for sure. The Superb offers you more space, the A4 is sportier. Check out which one you can get without leather seats in your market and which one has the better price
That's ace Thomas
+LEE AVISON 😎
Its beyond my imagination why Skoda only put a 6 gear dsg in this car
Did this one also have the umbrellas in each front door and the ice scraper in the filler cap? Was the flashlight magnetic?
I saw it in another of your reviews so it would be interesting if these are still features.
yeah u can get that
Pity we cannot as yet get the red colour in the UK, only special paint option is bright yellow!
Hi Thomas - Quick question... do you experience road and wind noise from the front doors at speeds above 80km/h? I have the non-sport version and experience a lot of road and wind noise as soon as the speed goes up. Btw great review as always.
Thanks! Hmm.. no actually the ride was always quite silent
Ok weird. Maybe I should contact my car dealer and have him check it. I thought that this noise was "normal" and was the reason for the general lower price.
not starting at 80 km/h, that shouldnt be normal
Some people had this issue and had it repaired by the dealers. I had no issues at over 180mph (290 km/h)
Skoda Superb Do you know what the repair consist of?
Beautiful Seat Leon Cup... oh I mean Skoda Superb :D
I really don't get why they would promote a car in this color. Same with Honda with the red Civic we see everywhere.
The Skoda Superb was always a favorite of mine. Nice car with a lot of luxury options for a great price. I'm not fond of the TSI engines (reliability), but with the bigger engines VAG's downsizing problem shouldn't be a thing.
what were the revs like at 150-200km/h?
This is so close to what an "RS" would be, and what the Passat is that there is barely room if any to move, at least on the 2L platform, going upto a 2.5L and/or putting in more aggressive intake/exhaust, cooling and turbo systems, but that would defeat their brand segmentation and standardization strategies.
If they start making exceptions, and say well this car gets a bigger exhaust/intake, and we are going to upgrade or manufacture uprated turbo's, then its a slippery slope, it leads to things like 'well we think it would be better if the internal fan grills were like this in this car' and even though it is only one modification, or one part, that is how over time you end up with many components.
But they might get away (from VW) with fitting a 2.5l since it is such a big vehicle and it would help produce low-end torque for towing, and couple that with the 48V mild hybrid system, and good tuning/integration, they might get a really torquey (at low rpm) vehicle that drives/handles and tows really well, and pulls 0-100kph at ~4 seconds in performance mode with electric assist.
The problem is that people are already comparing it to E-Class and BMW 5 series, and Audi A4, not the Passat which is supposed to be almost a tier higher.
yeah, the price of a Passat but the space of a class above, thats why :)
haha jedi!
great, video this is.
may the force be with you
thomas, is there going to be a review of the skoda kodiaq in the sportsline trim?? very curious about that one!!
+Jeroen van 't Westende hey, we ll try to arrange that
The top trim f this car should have wireless charger, or does it?
I'm thinking which one between these one and VW Golf R wolfsburg edition.Which one is better 🤔🤔🤔
Compare our golf r reviews, youtube search Autogefuehl vw golf r
Autogefühl Thank you for telling me I'm watching now VW Golf R estate kombi 310 hp
Interior & Exterior just amazing ❤👌👌👌
Great exterior, Škoda is pushing the envelope here, stylish yet stealth. Slightly disappointing interior, with DIALS COPIED FROM WARSZAWA (1950's). However a sporty car must have multi-link suspension. Thomas never mentioned the type but I'm pretty sure it ain't there.
simply love it!
Der 280 PS-Motor hat bislang nur das 6-Gang-DSG. Das schmale Fach in der Mittelarmlehne ist für Tablets gedacht. Und last but not least: Das Fahrwerk (DCC) unterscheidet sich nicht von dem der anderen Versionen. ;-)
Jo das stimmt, danke :)
Hey Thomas, are you sure that this one is with 7 speed DSG (6:09 min) ? Are there Skoda Superbs 2.0TSI 280 4x4 with 7 speed DSG already?
no not entirely sure
Yeah, I think Skoda's 2.0 TSI comes only with the 6 speed DSG. For now only VW offers the new 7 speed DSG with limited 2.0 TSI models.
Dimitar Angelkov there is a 7 speed dsg in superbs, but I don't know if you can get the7dsg with the 280hp engine
I want Audi RS3 facelift in autobahn !!!!
Hi Thomas!! Can I get a hi? That will make my day
Hi ?
Hi Thomas!
In the headlight, are the vertical lines also LEDs?
Main headlight Xenon, daytime running light = LED
Yes, I know the L shape is LED, how about the vertical lines (6 on each side?)
Thanks!!!
Just wondering if they're only reflectors or they actually glow!
ahh ok. Tough question. I ll try to take another look
yes, the daylight running lights are all LED, while the low beam is xenon and high-beam also xenon( not sure about the high beam though). I guess the VAG group is trying to boost up the passat while banning such features as the full led lights, digital dials and more from the superb, otherwise i'm sure the superb would outsell the passat by far. A shame, if you ask me. Maybe we'll see something awesome introduced with the superb's facelift
