Skoda has added a more affordable variant to the Superb called the Ambition.

The Superb Ambition comes sans the projector headlamps, front proximity sensors & headlamp washers found in the more upmarket Elegance trim. On the inside, the Superb Ambition loses the Elegance’s touchscreen & also gets a single CD player with MP3 instead of the 6 CD changer on the higher variant.

However, the Ambition retains all the safety features offered on the Elegance including eight airbags, ABS, EBD, ASR (Anti Slip regulation), TCS (Traction Control system) & ESP (Electronic Stability Program).  Available with both petrol & diesel engine options, the Superb Ambition gets a six speed manual for the Petrol & a DSG auto ‘box for the diesel variant. The superb does not get a tyre pressure monitor.

The Superb Ambition petrol is priced at Rs 18 lakh while the diesel car is priced at Rs 22.5 lakh (Ex Delhi). The price differentiates this variant to the higher spec Elegance by a significant Rs 1.5 1.8 lakh.
