Superb Estate

The Superb is a car with history dating from the 1930s. The original Superb’s design was luxurious and elegant both inside and out, built to appeal to the world’s leaders and royalty. New Superb takes its sumptuous design cues from its earliest predecessor and builds on these strengths.
Now, building on the considerable strengths of the award winning hatchback the Superb Estate is the largest and most luxurious car to ever wear the Škoda badge.

ŠkodaSuperb Estate key features:

Luggage compartment lighting
The boot of the Superb Estate contains some thoughtful features to make life a little easier. Two fixed lights on the inside of the tailgate illuminate the inside of the boot when open, whilst the parcel shelf retracts when touched, so you can load bags without having to put them down.

Handy Light
A handy LED light positioned on the inside of the boot, illuminates the large luggage area when the tailgate is opened. The light can also be removed and used as a torch. It has a magnetic back so that it can be attached in any position on the car in case you ever need to light a specific area in the dark.

ŠkodaGreenLine II Technology
As the world becomes more environmentally sensitive, Škoda has responded by developing GreenLine II technology. The following information will explain the key technological features of GreenLine II and how they contribute to making a cleaner, greener customer experience, as well as reducing fuel costs for the driver and our impact on the environment. GreenLine II is available on Superb S, SE and Elegance.

1.6 TDI CR 105PS DPF
The economical four cylinder 1.6 TDI diesel engine in the GreenLine II produces just 114g/km CO2 which means a VED band of C, which is £0 road tax for the first 12 months.
The Superb GreenLine II has an excellent combined fuel economy of 64.2 mpg.

Energy Recuperation
Energy recuperation is the process of converting kinetic energy (energy created through movement) back into usable electricity, which is either stored in the battery, or immediately used again by electrical components on the vehicle. Depending on driving style, electrical energy is supplied to the vehicle by the alternator or directly by the battery. The principle of energy recovery is to reduce the load on the engine and therefore contribute to lower emissions and reduced fuel consumption.

Aerodynamics
One of the simplest ways to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions, is to create a more aerodynamic vehicle.
The Superb GreenLine II has a small rear boot spoiler (Hatch only) and slightly lowered suspension to facilitate better airflow.
To keep the weight and drag of the GreenLine II models down to a minimum and thus ensure the model is as efficient as possible, there is a reduced list of options available.
However, the comfort and safety of all occupants has not been compromised and so important features like airbags and air conditioning have been retained.

Low profile tyres
The Superb GreenLine II has 16” Spectrum Alloys (205/55 R16 91H) these lighter alloy wheels with low rolling resistance tyres have a higher prescribed air pressure to reduce friction.

Stop/Start System
This innovative system turns off the engine when it is not needed, for example when the driver is stopped at traffic lights or in heavy traffic.
When a normal car is stationary, the engine will idle, which in turn consumes fuel and generates emissions. The Stop/start system cleverly cuts out this unnecessary work by stopping the engine automatically when the car is stationary, in neutral and the clutch pedal is released. The Stop/start system does not inhibit a quick getaway either. As soon as the driver presses the clutch to put the vehicle in gear, the engine immediately starts up so acceleration is as instant as if the car had been idling.

Partition System
The Superb Estate features a very functional partition and tether system (standard on SE and Elegance). Two aluminium plates run the length of the boot and have an extendable bar to keep large items in place with a tether system to keep smaller items stowed to one side. Both the bar and tether system are removable.

Electrically controlled fifth door
The Superb Estate is available with an optional electrically operated boot. At the touch of a button - either beside the gearstick, on the key fob (press and hold for 2 seconds) or on the boot itself, the boot will open automatically. When you have finished loading, press the button on the inside of the tailgate and the boot will close. This system has a clever feature for when you may park somewhere with a low ceiling - the height of the boot opening can be pre-set so you don’t have to worry about any unwanted scrapes and dents.
