Mladá Boleslav, 25 November 2019 – The first ŠKODA iV models set themselves apart from the vehicles with a combustion engine: the CITIGOᵉ iV has been given bold visual features including a body-coloured ŠKODA grille and a new front bumper. The SUPERB iV has been provided with subtle distinguishing details such as a flap covering the charging socket that has been invisibly incorporated into the grille. All of the new label’s vehicles bear a special iV badge on their tailgate.
The electric ŠKODA CITIGOᵉ iV is based on the combustion-engine CITIGO. However, even at first glance, it looks noticeably different: The brand-typical ŠKODA grille and the air ducts of the CITIGOᵉ iV, available exclusively as a five-door, are body-coloured. The newly designed front bumper has been aerodynamically optimised to reduce energy consumption. The black or body-coloured wing mirror housings come with integrated indicators. Fog lights as well as LED daytime running lights are standard for both of the trim levels that are available for the CITIGOᵉ iV (Ambition and Style). Cornering lights are an optional extra.
The range of colours for the ŠKODA CITIGOᵉ iV includes the four non-metallic finishes Candy White, Tornado Red, Sunflower Yellow and – exclusive to the all-electric variant – Kiwi Green. Deep Black, Crystal Blue and Tungsten Silver are the metallic options to choose from. The ŠKODA CITIGOᵉ iVAmbition features 14-inch steel wheels including Indus wheel trims and 165/70 R14 tyres as standard. Polished, two-tone 16-inch Scorpius alloy wheels with black accents and 185/50 R16 tyres are optional; they come as standard for CITIGOᵉ iVStyle variants. Silver Scorpius wheels are also available as an option.
SUPERB iV with a hidden charging socket and 17-inch alloys
The ŠKODA SUPERB iV is available in the Ambition and Style trim levels as well as SPORTLINE and L&K variants. Depending on the trim or variant, the innovative full LED Matrix headlights including an animated Coming/Leaving Home function are either standard or optional. The lights bring out the modern design of ŠKODA’s flagship model whilst also increasing safety.
The Matrix technology allows drivers to have the high beam on at all times without dazzling other road users. The SUPERB iV’s newly designed ŠKODA grille is nearly all chrome. A flap, invisibly incorporated into the grille, conceals the socket for the charging cable. The modified front apron comes in a honeycomb structure and is flanked by air curtains. A horizontal chrome trim (black trim in the ŠKODA SUPERB iV SPORTLINE) acting as a connection between the full LED tail lights characterises the rear, as does a special iV badge.
So that the SUPERB iV cannot only be seen but also heard by pedestrians and cyclists, its E-noise feature generates a unique sound.
Polished 17-inch Stratos alloy wheels, which come as standard, emphasise the car’s sophisticated appearance; 18- and 19-inch alloys are both available as an option. Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC) – which is standard and, in this model, does not lower the car by 10 mm – includes Driving Mode Select.
The trim framing the ŠKODA SUPERB iV SPORTLINE’s radiator grille, the car’s wing mirror housings and horizontal strip positioned between the full LED tail lights, which come as standard, are gloss black.
The top trim level, L&K, is the same size but also sports other new chrome details that, in addition to the air curtains, also adorn the side sills and rear bumper. ‘Laurin & Klement’ lettering on the front wings provides another visual highlight.
