Skoda Singapore has taken the covers off the Superb Combi, the estate variant of the all-new, fourth-generation Superb. The Superb Combi is Skoda's flagship model here, and prices currently start from $222,900 with COE.

Previously, only the Superb fastback was sold here. Although the latest model is still available in this body style, Skoda Singapore has elected to bring in the Superb Combi instead. The move could be a smart one, as car buyers continue to shift away from sedans.

The new Superb Combi espouses Skoda's current design language. Up front is the brand's new grille, LED matrix head lights with the crystalline 'flying arrow' signature. Sharp lines can be found throughout the car's body, adding to its sporty vibe.

At present, all Superb Combi units being sold here are equipped with the top-spec Laurin & Klement trim, so customers can expect numerous cabin refinements. PHOTO: sgCarMart

These include a Virtual Cockpit instrument panel, 13-inch touchscreen infotainment display, and Skoda Smart Dials, which are rotary dials with haptic and digital elements. Among other functions, these dials can be used to control the temperature and seat settings.

Speaking of seats, the front seats are certified by Aktion Gesunder Rucken (AGR). This German association, whose name translates to 'Campaign for Healthier Backs', aims to help certify products that are back-friendly.

And in a nod to sustainability, the tanning process for the leather upholstery utilises byproducts from the processing of olives, while all the textile materials found in the interior contain 100per cent recycled content. PHOTO: sgCarMart

In addition to improved comfort, the new Superb Combi also offers greater spaciousness, thanks to a taller roofline for improved headroom, and a 40mm increase in overall length that enlarges boot capacity by 30 litres with the rear backrests in place. When folded, the overall volume expands to 1,920 litres.

Powering the Superb Combi is a turbocharged 1.5-litre in-line-four that produces 148bhp and 250Nm of torque. The VES-neutral powerplant sends its outputs to the front wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch (wet) transmission. PHOTO: sgCarMart

Helping to raise its efficiency is a new mild hybrid system, along with ACT+, which, when certain conditions are met, deactivates two of the four cylinders to reduce consumption and emissions.

The new Superb Combi promises enhanced ride comfort with the latest-generation Dynamic Chassis Control called DCC Plus, which now uses two independent valves for the damping control in the compression and rebound phases.

Skoda says this makes the ride more pliant by extending the range of damping characteristics, as well as hastening the responsiveness of the shock absorbers. PHOTO: sgCarMart

In terms of safety, the Superb Combi's Front Assist system now also uses data from the front radar, in addition to the multifunction cameras. This improves its performance, while also enabling Predictive Cyclist Protection.
