Skoda Kushaq Facelift New Spy Shots Emerge; India Launch Soon?

Skoda Kushaq Facelift Launch: It's been over 4 years since Skoda Auto introduced the Kushaq mid-size SUV in India. The first vehicle under the Volkswagen Group's India 2.0 project, the Kushaq, is now due for a facelift, which is expected to launch in early 2026. Ahead of the launch, a new set of spy images has surfaced showing the prototype testing on public roads. 

Skoda Kushaq Facelift: Exterior

Compared to the existing Kushaq, the facelifted version has small visual changes. The headlamps look sleeker than before. Also, the butterfly grille appears to have a revised design, aligning with the company's Modern Solid design language. Like the Kodiaq, the upcoming Kushaq could feature a segmented DRL extending into the headlamp DRLs. The spy images show blacked-out alloy wheels. At the rear, the test mule sports reworked wraparound taillamps, likely to be accompanied by an LED strip. Subtle tweaks are expected on the bumper, too.

Skoda Kushaq Facelift: Interior, Features

There are no images of the Kushaq facelift's cabin, but the latest images confirm the presence of a panoramic sunroof. The previous spy shot hinted at a 360-degree camera and an ADAS suite. At the same time, the vehicle could get new trim options, a revised touchscreen, 6 airbags, ESC, hill hold control, and TPMS.

Under the hood, the new Kushaq is likely to offer the same 113bhp petrol and 147bhp turbo-petrol engine. The former is expected to get the 6-speed manual and automatic gearboxes, and the latter the 7-speed DCT automatic gearbox.
