About the Skoda Superb Mk2
The second-generation Skoda Superb redefined the brand's flagship status, offering rear legroom that rivalled luxury limousines like the BMW 7 Series. Its most distinctive feature is the 'TwinDoor' boot system, which allows the rear to open as either a traditional saloon lid or a full hatchback. The 170hp 2.0 TDI engine provides effortless cruising capability, making it a favourite for long-distance travel and professional hire. While based on a stretched Volkswagen Group A6 platform, its unique packaging and value proposition made it a standout in the D-segment.
