Mladá Boleslav / Pune, 26 June 2021 – The ŠKODA KUSHAQ boasts excellent active and passive safety features. The ESC system comes as standard for all variants – this is a first in this vehicle segment on the Indian market. Occupants are protected by up to six airbags, while ISOFIX anchors and top tether anchor points ensure the greatest possible safety for children. Parking sensors and, in higher trim levels, a rear-view camera provide convenient assistance when parking; a tyre pressure monitoring system and Hill-Hold Control are optional extras.
The use of the MQB-A0-IN – the variant of Volkswagen Group’s modular MQB specially adapted by ŠKODA AUTO for the Indian market – means the new KUSHAQ is equipped with a high level of passive safety and numerous assistance systems. Safe handling is ensured at all times by the ESC system, which comes as standard in all variants – a first in this vehicle segment in India. The ESC also enables the use of the optional Hill-Hold Control feature, which comes as standard in the Style trim level. The Multi-Collision Brake prevents potential follow-on collisions in the event of an accident, by automatically bringing the KUSHAQ to a standstill.
Convenient assistance when driving and parking
The new ŠKODA KUSHAQ comes with numerous assistance systems, some of which are optional, that make driving and parking more comfortable for the driver. These include cruise control, and light and rain sensors which automatically switch on the low beam or windscreen wipers when required. All variants are equipped with rear sensors to make parking easier, and from Ambition upwards, there is also a rear-view camera which shows the distance to potential obstacles and guiding lines for orientation. A tyre pressure monitor is an extra for the range-topping trim line, Style.
Comprehensive passive safety features
The KUSHAQ is equipped with an extensive range of passive safety features which provide excellent levels of protection for the driver and passengers in the event of an accident. All five seats feature three-point seat belts and height-adjustable headrests. ISOFIX anchors and top tether anchor points on the rear seats come as standard to safely secure child seats. In the event of an impact, the occupants are protected by up to six airbags.
