Skoda Kylaq Features Explained: A Comprehensive Guide

Skoda Kylaq: An Overview

The Škoda Kylaq is available in four variations - Classic, Signature, Signature+, and Prestige - all of which are reasonably priced in both manual and automatic transmission styles. 

The Kylaq also has a high Bharat NCAP safety rating (Adult: 30.88 | Child: 45.00), so it is one of the safest vehicles in this category. With the standard Škoda warranty and roadside assistance, plus optional SuperCare packages, the Kylaq is a safe and reliable ownership proposition. 

Customers can choose from a full spectrum of bright body colours: Candy White, Brilliant Silver, Tornado Red, Olive Gold, Carbon Steel, Deep Black, and Lava Blue. This colour palette emphasises the Kylaq's expressive design and enables personalisation for a bespoke touch.

Features of the Skoda Kylaq

Let’s look at the features that make the Skoda Kylaq the top option for all, regardless of the condition. 

Exterior Design Highlights
 

• LED Lighting with Crystalline Effect

The Shokda Kylaq is unmistakable for its crystalline LED headlamps, LED daytime running lights, and LED tail lamps. These lighting components not only provide a modern and premium appeal on the road but also increase safety through improved sight. 

The detail of the crystalline styling shows Škoda's design language, helping the Kylaq look its best on the busy road at night. Together, the lights help to provide an individual identity as a Škoda that the driver will notice.

• Alloy Wheels

Distinctive alloy wheel designs set apart the trims of the Kylaq range. The Classic trim has durable R16 steel wheels with full covers, while the Signature trim has R16 silver alloy wheels. 

The next trim, Signature+, features stylish R17 dual-tone alloy wheels, and lastly, the Prestige trim features unique dual-tone designs in the BENNY design. Each of these wheels adds to the character of the SUV with great functionality and aesthetics, and each trim offers increasing style.

• Additional Functional Exterior Features

In addition to the lighting and wheels, the Skoda Kylaq embodies additional thoughtful touches such as auto-folding side mirrors that improve user convenience, as well as providing safe storage in close parking spaces. A shark-fin antenna provides for more sleek aerodynamics as well as enhancing a sporty feel. 

Chrome door handle inserts improve a more luxurious look that provides a sophisticated contrast to the body colour. Roof rails are not only practical, allowing for personal items to be stored and used, but also enhance the imposing style of the SUV. 

• Sunroof Option

For those who appreciate touches of extra luxury, the Signature+ and Prestige trims have the added benefit of an electric sunroof with anti-pinch functionality. 

This detail contributes significantly to the Kylaq's interior feel, creating an expansive, airy feel for all passengers while allowing in natural light. The anti-pinch feature is an extra safety feature that will not catch or snag objects when the sunroof is in motion. It is not only stylish, but adds an indulgent detail that complements the modern SUV design principle of the Kylaq.
