Skoda has revealed the new Sportline version of its Superb upper-medium car.

The sports-inspired equipment grade will be available with both hatch and estate bodystyles, and with all the powertrains currently on offer in the Superb range, including petrol, diesel, and plug-in hybrid.

Exterior styling features include gloss black detailing and 19in alloy wheels, while progressive steering and suspension lowered by 15mm are intended to improve handling.

Other standard equipment includes LED matrix headlights, LED rear lights with animated indicators, and an electric tailgate with a virtual pedal.

There’s a choice of two interior design schemes, both of which feature heated front sports seats with integrated head restraints and manually adjustable cushion length.

Other standard features include a black roof lining, carbon-effect trim, stainless steel pedals, a three-spoke multifunction sports steering wheel, a 10in virtual cockpit display, and a free-standing 13in infotainment screen.

Prices for the Superb Sportline are yet to be announced.
