Skoda Auto India have launched the all-new Kylaq SUV in India at an introductory starting price of Rs. 7.89 lakh (ex-showroom). Bookings for the new Skoda Kylaq SUV will open on December 2 and deliveries should commence in January. Check out the exterior and interior design, dimensions, features, powertrain specs, and rivals of the new Kylaq below.

Earlier this year, we reported that the new Skoda Kylaq will feature a similar design to the Kushaq C-segment SUV. Now that Skoda have unveiled the 2024 Kylaq, we finally get to see the similarities and differences between the 2 SUVs.
Up front, the Kylaq features split-LED headlamps like the Kushaq. The Kylaq gets a gloss black grille flanked by LED DRLs. The LED headlamps sit lower down the bumper. The black cladding, faux silver skid plates and the central air dam with a honeycomb pattern gives the Kylaq a rugged look.

The side profile gets a much simpler design than the Kushaq. Apart from a gloss black B-pillar, the Kylaq gets a character line that runs from the LED DRLs all the way to the C-pillar. The pronounced rear haunches and the lower black cladding complete the SUV design. Meanwhile, the ORVM gets integrated turn signals and the door handles feature chrome trim. The top variants of the Kylaq come equipped with 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels.

At the rear, the Kylaq gets LED tail lamps with an L-shaped lighting signature. The taillamps are connected by a gloss black strip with ‘SKODA’ chrome lettering. The rear bumper is finished in black and features a chunky faux silver skid plate.
Here are the dimensions of the new Skoda Kylaq:
The Skoda Kylaq measures 3995mm in length, 1783mm in width, 1575mm in height and has a wheelbase of 2566mm. The Kylaq offers a ground clearance of 189mm. It’s worth noting that the Kylaq measures 1975mm in width with the ORVMs extended. Boot space is rated at 446 litres with all the seats in use and 1265 litres with the 60:40 rear split seats folded down.

On the inside, the 2024 Kylaq SUV gets a dual-tone black-and-grey cabin with chrome accents peppered around the cabin. Apart from the shape of the central AC vents, the dashboard looks identical to the one offered in the Kushaq. Skoda have even equipped with Kylaq with the same 2-spoke multi-functional steering wheel offered in the Kushaq. Other feature highlights in the cabin of the Kylaq include:

Safety features include electronic stability control (ESC), anti-lock braking system (ABS), traction control (TC), multi-collision braking, 6 airbags, ISOFIX child seat mounts, and 3-point seatbelts for all passengers.
The Skod Kylaq features the same 1.0L turbo petrol engine as the Kushaq and Slavia. Transmission options include a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed torque converter automatic.
Skoda are yet to reveal the exact variant-wise ex-showroom prices of the 2024 Kylaq. However, with a starting price of Rs. 7.89 lakh, the new Skoda Kylaq is currently the second most affordable B2-SUV with a turbo petrol engine. The Kylaq rivals other B2-segment SUVs such as the Mahindra XUV 3XO, Nissan Magnite, Renault Kiger, Toyota Taisor, Maruti Suzuki Fronx and Brezza, Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, and the Hyundai Venue.
