    Stay Away From The Slavia. Terrible Quality Car

    This is a review after 1 week of ownership, 500kms of driving, and 3 trips to the workshop. It will be a short, point wise review 1. The rear camera is the lowest quality you can imagine 2. When reversing the car rushes backward at very high speed, and combine that with a poor rear camera (and its worse at night), and it is designed to increase the probability of hitting someone 3. There are no front parking sensors 4. The car also lunges forward when you release the brakes. This particularly creates a challenge when parking your car because even if you release the brakes a little, it moves forward with a jerk, rushing towards the wall. So you have to keep braking hard to get the right spot when parking. Mixed with the fact that there are no front parking sensors, the car is designed to crash while parking and damaging the front bumpers. It is only a matter of time. 5. The brakes mostly always make a groaning, screeching sound that you expect from a truck or a train. And this is most apparent when parking. 6. The mile-age is quite terrible. In the city with no traffic you can at best get a 10-11kmpl. Else in normal traffic it usually gives around 7kmpl. 7. There is no Tire Pressure Monitoring system. You have no idea what the pressure in the tyres is. There is a tyre pressure alert system, but on one instance when my tire pressure exceeded the limit, it never gave me any alert. Looks like the tyre pressure alert system doesnt work 8. The instrumentation clsuter and the touch screen interface is ok. It is not well designed, and is inconvenient to use, and hence takes your eyes off the road if you try to change or see anything data while driving. Best is to park the car and then change the setting. Nothing is one-click. Everything requires 2-3 clicks. 9. The AC keeps making a loud hissing sound all the time. Its an intermittent hissing sound that keeps going on for long. I dont think it ever stops. 10. The plastics, and buttons are cheap, hard and clunky It is a very poorly designed car, and not sophisticated at all. I regret buying this car, and my goal is to sell it off soon. My recommendation to others is to stay away from buying a Slavia . I also own a Kia Seltos, and for the same price that is a far far superior car in terms of smoothness, mileage, ease of operation, convenience, and ride quality.

      Good Car For The Cost
      Knowing the car for a period. It's stylish and much comfortable. Performance is better in all way. Better for long and city drive. Interior is more silent and comfortable for co-passengers which provide a comfortable drive all over. The performance noticed was well good. I think shortage in expected mileage will drop in city drive.

Pahad par jao, long drive par jao, office jao but ye apko nirash nhi krti or is budget me ye apne aap me tabahi hai. Is liye ye pocket friendly or mere liye to meri super car yahi hai. Thanks to skoda.

      A Super Car
      The Skoda Slavia is a premium, stylish, and safe (5-star GNCAP) sedan, often praised for its powerful 1.5L TSI engine and engaging handling. It offers impressive ground clearance (179 mm) and a spacious, well-appointed cabin, making it an excellent highway cruiser. Features like ventilated seats are highly valued.

      For Middle Class Family.
      This is the best car in this segment for middle class family. Fuel economy is good, according to safety this car is good because nowadays, we are seeing many roads accident so I suggest to all person don't go to buy which shows you saving because you and your family life is important instead of money.
