Skoda are gearing up to launch the updated 2026 Slavia sedan in India and fresh spy shots have now revealed a glimpse of its interior. While the facelift is expected to bring cosmetic updates and new features, the latest images suggest the cabin layout will remain largely unchanged. The updated Slavia is expected to debut in India by the end of 2026.

The spy images reveal a dashboard layout that is nearly identical to the current Slavia. The test mule features a free-standing touchscreen infotainment system and Skoda's signature 2-spoke steering wheel with scroll controls.
Although the overall design appears unchanged, Skoda could introduce:

The Slavia facelift could also benefit from features introduced recently on the Kushaq facelift, including a rear seat massage function for higher variants.
Other features likely to be carried forward include:

Previous test mules have already revealed several exterior changes for the updated sedan. The Slavia facelift is expected to feature:

Skoda are likely to retain the current Slavia's 1L turbo petrol and 1.5L turbo petrol engine options. The biggest mechanical change could be the introduction of a new 8-speed torque converter automatic transmission for the 1.0L turbo-petrol engine. This gearbox recently debuted on the Kushaq and could replace the current 6-speed automatic transmission.

We expect Skoda to launch the Slavia facelift in India by late 2026. Prices are likely to increase slightly over the current model, which is priced between Rs. 10 lakh and Rs. 18 lakh (ex-showroom).
Once launched, the updated Slavia will continue to rival the Volkswagen Virtus, Hyundai Verna and Honda City in the midsize sedan segment.
