SIMPLY CLEVER
ŠkodaSuperb

When elegance meets functionality, you can marvel at the beauty of the design
and at the same time enjoy the exceptional space for your everyday responsibilities
as well as weekend adventures.

When comfort meets safety, you can set off on even long trips knowing
that you and your passengers have been taken the best care of.

When high technology meets unique style, the journey can become more special
than the destination. Make your journey in the Škoda Superb or Škoda Superb Combi.

Design has been created with regards
to elegance and overall harmony, as well
as perfect functionality. For example
the Bi-Xenon headlamps with AFS
(Adaptive Frontlight System) are not only
visually attractive, they are also technically
exceptional. The robust front grille with
a chrome frame is a characteristic feature
of Škoda vehicles.
Chrome elements such as strips around the side windows
(see photo) or protective door strips highlight the exclusivity
of the vehicle.
The double exhaust
tailpipe is proof that
elegance can also look
sporty. The end of the
exhaust is also more
resistant thanks to the use
of stainless steel.
The major design feature
of the Superb Combi
model takes the form
of the rear combined
lights, also with the typical
C-shaped translucence.
The rear combined lights
extend to the sides, increasing
lateral visibility. The traditional
letter C, which becomes
pronounced when the lights
are turned on, lends the Superb
model a distinct Škoda look.
The overall elegant
look of the vehicle
is further underlined
by a roof antenna
in the shape of a fin.

TwinDoor – the variable opening of the 5th door is a patent of the Škoda brand.
With this unique structural and design solution, the Superb model takes an exclusive
position not only in its class, but also amongst cars in general. On one hand, the Superb
represents a classically elegant sedan with a luxurious space for passengers, which
is completely separated from the luggage area. When you press the Softtouch button
in the middle of the 5th door, only the first part, which is really a cover for the luggage
compartment, will open and you will gain access to stored items. On the other hand,
the Superb is also a very practical liftback car, which enables unlimited access to
the luggage compartment and easy handling of bulky items after lifting both parts
of the 5th door including the window.

The many unique features
brought to you by the Superb Combi
mean increased benefits, comfort and
pleasure. The electrically controlled
5th door is opened and closed
automatically. It can be controlled from
four different locations: button on key
with remote control, button on centre
console, internal button on 5th door
panelling and external Softtouch button.
You may adjust the upper door position
individually according to your needs.
The button in the
door panelling
facilitates
comfortable closing
of the 5th door.
The automatic roll cover
of the luggage compartment
shifts to the centre position after
the electrically controlled 5th
door is opened, which makes
the access to your luggage
highly convenient.

Modern technologies not only make
travelling more pleasant but increase
the ease of handling the vehicle. For example,
the multifunctional 3-spoke leather steering
wheel in its top version offers you control
of the radio, phone and the automatic DSG
(Direct Shift Gearbox). A multifunctional
4-spoke leather steering wheel enabling
control of the radio and phone is also available.
Automatic 7-speed DSG (Direct Shift
Gearbox), exclusively available for the
1.8 TSI/118kW engine, guarantees smooth
and rapid gear shifts resulting in maximum
utilisation of the potential of the engine’s
torque.
The Columbus navigation system with a 6.5" colour
touch-screen and voice command function enables watching
TV broadcasts and browsing teletext pages in combination
with the TV tuner.
The GSM II phone preparation is designed for Bluetooth
enabled devices, the GSM III set further supports phones
with rSAP (remote SIM Access Profile).
The Bolero radio is an original audio system with a multitude
of functions, such as a reader for SD or MMC data cards, ability
to play music CDs as well as files in MP3 and WMA formats,
memory for radio traffic reports (TIM), 6-CD changer and more.
The Sound System with a 10-channel
amplifier plus a digital equaliser and ten
speakers provides excellent sound
reproduction in the vehicle.
The MDI (Mobile
Device Interface)
gives you the ability
to control a connected
external device
through the radio,
navigation system
or multifunctional
steering wheel.
In vehicles equipped with
KESSY (Keyless Entry, Start
and exit SYstem) there is
a Start/Stop button on
the steering column for
keyless starting and switching
off the engine.
Recommended
gear shift
function is
displayed in the
top right corner
of Maxi DOT or
on the on-board
computer display.

In all Superb models, you can rely on outstanding safety equipment with state-of-the-art technology.
Bi-Xenon headlamps with AFS (Adaptive Frontlight System), which are able to adjust the lighting in front
of the car to the current driving conditions, add to your safety behind the wheel. The AFS works in several
different modes: extra-urban, urban and motorway. Further, AFS offers the “rain” functionality intended for
driving in conditions of reduced visibility. In addition, the Bi-Xenon headlamps are equipped with rotary
modules, which illuminate turns as you drive through them. Further enhanced safety is contributed to
by front fog lamps with the Corner function, which is particularly useful during turns in badly lit areas,
and integrated daytime running lights.
The rain sensor automatically
activates the front Aero-wipers
based on the rain intensity, applying
even pressure on the glass and,
therefore, wiping evenly along their
whole length. The Combi version
is further equipped with a rear
Aero-wiper.
Head airbags create
a protective wall upon
their activation, which
protects the occupants
in the front and rear
against head injury.
Driver and
passenger airbags
are effective
protection in the
event of a head-on
collision. If a child seat
is placed in the front
seat, it is necessary
to deactivate the
passenger airbag.
The front and rear
side airbags protect
the chest and pelvis
of passengers in the
event of lateral impact.
The knee airbag, located
under the steering wheel
column, protects the
driver’s knees and shins.
Safety lights on the
panelling of the front
and rear doors alert
passing drivers to
the open doors on
the stopped vehicle.
Parking Assistant, which
utilises front as well as rear
parking sensors and additional
two sensors for its operation,
not only simplifies vehicle
handling, it literally parks
for you. While the Parking
Assistant operates the steering
wheel, a driver only uses the
accelerator and the brake.
The linear
reflective
surfaces, “cat’s
eyes”, improve
visibility of the
Superb Combi
model from
the rear.

The dashboard evokes a feeling of comfort at first sight, as well as at first touch. The placement
of individual control components was designed so that you can become oriented quickly and
easily behind the steering wheel. The controls are at an arm’s length and in places where you
would expect them intuitively. The steering wheels for Superb and Superb Combi are available
in several designs, which differ in their shape, material, and available functions, but any of them
make driving easy and precise.
The heated front windscreen will quickly clear frost or steam and you are thus
guaranteed a clear view in any weather.
The electrically-adjustable driver seat is equipped with memory, which can store
three different positions of the seat and the external mirrors.
Heating of the rear seats is regulated by a separate control on the rear side
of the Jumbo Box. This convenient feature, which contributes to the comfort of your
ride in cold weather, is supplied exclusively in combination with heating of the front
seats.
The Parking Assistant, designed to facilitate parallel parking in a row of vehicles,
is activated by a button to the right of the gear stick. The parking procedure,
including searching for a suitable parking place, is shown on the Maxi DOT display.
Turning off the parking sensors, or rather the acoustic signal, can be useful,
for example, in heavy city traffic.
The TPM (Tyre Pressure Monitoring) is a system that utilises data from the ABS
(Anti-lock Braking System) sensors. Any decrease in the under-inflated tyre
revolution speed is indicated on the instrument panel to alert the driver.
The ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation) can be deactivated if necessary while the ESP
(Electronic Stability Programme) remains active.
