[@johnbower7452]

Never understood the hate to having them on the Infotainment system; it looks much neater that way. And to be honest, just set them once; to whatever is comfy for you. Then you don't touch them again. Mine is set to 21C, rarely if ever change it and do so when I'm at the lights, you still need to look at physical buttons to see what your'e setting it to. And you still learn where the touch section is in time.

[@johnbower7452]

@@pl4819 I got that as a free option on mine; due to that my dealer couldn't match the price on a website, so he threw in the spare and 4 car mats instead; I was glad, Octavia doesn't usually come with a spare unless you fork over £180 (that was then (late 2020), don't know if it might have gone up by now).

As a former owner of Skoda Superb I like what they did with this new generation, the opposite of what BMW did with the new 5 series...

I wouldn't usually watch a Skoda Superb review but I find myself watching any Thomas (and Leah!) videos as you two are so darn entertaining, fun and light hearted.

[@frankpeutz9106]

Maybe I missed it but what about your question regarding Superb vs BMW 5series???

[@questionyourself718]

Why do you have such a Problem with just writing Leather? What do you think you accomplish by writing "dead animal skin"? Do you belive some people dont know what leather is?

[@autogefuehl]

Thank you very much for your interest in this topic. I also bought cars with animal skin leather seats before I did my research and got to know the industry. The most important thing is: With today's modern materials, you have nothing to lose, just to gain. You achieve the same kind of luxury and comfort or even better while having the same or better durability with less impact on humans, animals and the environment. You can use fabric/cloth, microfibre or leatherette. The classic approach is using oil/plastic as source material. Overall, a vehicle contains about 300 kg plastic. A car seat needs about 5 kg plastic. So the overall plastic share for the seats is very low and it is at this moment the most efficient way to produce a car seat. A couple of litres of fuel equals a car seat basically. So if you want to save oil/plastic, rather look at consumption for energy, fuel and heating and to other car parts than the seat. Note that animal skin leather also always contains a plastic coating for durability. However, long-term we should of course find raw oil alternatives. So going further, seats can be made from recyclables (e.g. from PET-bottles or old fishing nets) or even increased share of plant-based materials (like pine oil, canola oil or start-up materials like Pinatex from pineapple leaves or Desertex from cactus fibre or the mixed-plant-based Mirum, so be seen at kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWLEf42bpMano6c). On a calculation base, by ditching animal skin leather from car interiors, the amount of emissions (CO2e) is reduced by 85 (!) % (www.press.bmwgroup.com/africa-dom-easteurope/article/detail/T0403389EN/on-the-market-from-2023:-bmw-and-mini-models-with-vegan-interiors?language=en) - and that is a very conservative calculation. So it is at this moment the most important thing you can do to make car interiors more sustainable. A good example for high-end luxury with ventilated animal free seats is the BMW X7 with Sensafin: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6G1f56NbtOlqNk And the Kia EV9 with plant-based oil share: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKe7loOHnsSAd80 New leatherette materials can be superior in every aspect, even for cleaning: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2qXiouAbJeIiqM More and more natural materials are rising: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIO2pIt7o9x7etE Also check out what the animal skin leather industry tried to with our channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIHCdKmCocZ5oqs For seeing how the animals are being treated and transported in the global leather industry, watch this footage: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpzNdHSjppaSbqc Note that the footage is genuine and was recorded by a highly decorated investigative journalist in Germany I know myself personally. Also a group of researchers and German journalists from public media could recent directly trace the connection between car animal leather production and illegal burning down Amazon rain forest: www.daserste.de/information/reportage-dokumentation/ard-story/videos/illegales-leder-video-100.html In a high animal skin grade, the animals are specifically raised for this matter. However even if meat is the "first" misuse case, the hide remains a profitable body part. That means: If manufacturers put animal leather in a car and you demand it as a customer, you give your money to an industry that earns money by oppressing humans, animals and harms the environment, you make them more profitable. Alternatively, you could support industries with your wallet which try to improve the sustainability of materials. Also, if you turn the argument around to "meat is the waste of the leather industry" you realize that it doesn't make sense (and is ethically doubtful) to discuss the primary use of individual body parts of mammals. Mind experiment: You are getting slain down on the street; would it matter to you if it was for your smartphone or for your purse? Remember that animal skin leather is no different to fur, fur is just leather where the hair is still on. And fur is widely not accepted for clothing anymore, and of course not for cars. We cannot change what we have bought in the past, but with more information and compassion we can change how we decide in the future. For a great insight into sustainability in the automotive industry, you can also check out our extensive documentary: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2nKf4uih6yhnaM

[@boudewijn-]

@@autogefuehl that is your professional opinion that I can value, however only point of feedback; leather is leather, vegan leather is also dine, but I still prefer leather. Animal skin is the only point I do not like about your videos, the rest is 10/10 awesome.

[@B3ansGuy]

Fun fact, I saw an i5 touring coming up behind me on the motorway today and until it passed me I thought it was a Skoda. I don't know if that means that Skoda has caught up or BMW has regressed, but I genuinely like what Skoda has been doing recently, they make fantastic cars

[@PlaAwa]

perhaps bmw has caught up

[@gdgrim]

The main designer at Skoda is the old designer from BMW. So you are correct, Skodas actually look like the old generation of BMWs (to some degree).

[@ondrejfenclcom]

@@gdgrim The Skoda designer left to work for BMW, then Rolls Royce and now to MG. Current designer is there since 2017 and comes from within VW. But I generally agree about the similarity between the two brands. Skoda does look more like BMW than the most recent BMW do!

I am driving a 2021 280 superb sedan and it is one of the most comfortable car I have ever driven. It is fast without being sporty. It is a sleeper. I considered a 5 series before, however in terms of space that is available, superb is far superior for roughly the same external dimensions. And the ride it is just superb, build quality very good, nice sound isolation, half price to buy, cheaper to maintain. I felt in love with it from the first test drive. Just get a powerful one with dcc.

The designers at Skoda thinking of these genius practicality functions must get a raise! The sleeping horns are such a great idea!

[@agoodmansaid]

It’s a sad time to live in when Skoda do the kidney grill better than BMW

[@peglor]

The worst thing is that BMW have nobody but themselves to blame for their awful looking grilles. My understanding is they're doing it to appeal to the Chinese market, to appeal to a different aesthetic to EU buyers, mostly because BMW have about as much of the EU market as they'll ever have, so no growth potential here. It is kind of funny if that's true because rear seat legroom used to be, and probably still is a huge thing for Chinese cars, which is why Skoda took a Passat 20+ years ago, added a few cm to the wheelbase to make more rear legroom and sent it to China as the first Superb Limousine and discovered plenty of other people liked the idea too. Most cars can't comfortably seat actual adults in the rear at all.

[@georgealex19]

I would be very interested in Superb vs Kodiaq. Two main contenders for me as a next family car. Engine choices are better in Superb, but there's way more space in a kodiaq. Configurator tells me that Superb is more luxurious.

[@rcajavus8141]

interior is much cheaper than in old version, go take a look in RL you will be dissapointed at how bad it is.

[@TheLittleQuokka]

The design is... Superb. 😅 My only reservations with those fabric type dash is how well does it hold up to dirt and grime? Surely this will make it hard to clean stains off?

the Passat, superb, golf, Octavia. ...facelifts, to they get the alltrack/scout version?

[@hello88820]

From a personal experience I can tell there's 0 issues with maintain that fabric.

[@Specproof]

I recently drove the new Superb and Passat back to back within a 1-day gap. Both had 1.5 MHEV TSI engines. Difficult choice indeed, they are so similar. But driving-wise the Passat was slightly better. It was quieter ( there was less engine noise in the cabin ) and the engine-transmission calibration/programming was smoother. Superb felt like it's lacking power in some low-speed scenarios. The storage lid on the left side of the cargo area had a better feel in the Passat and the spare tyre/tyre kit lid had a proper handle in the Passat instead of a small strap. In the end of the day I would pick the Superb personally because of the overall design and interior. Superb is slightly more practical because of the physical buttons. Oh, and the Passat also has an umbrella hole in the driver's door but it is empty of course.

[@wezzla]

The interior is impressive. The controls reminds me of older Ferraris, like those in 599. Bravo Škoda.

[@Ianmundo]

0-100 in 5.6s is excellent 👌

it looks yes. drive both back 2 back and there is no comparison, the bmw is clearly a 2x better car. much better sound insulation in the bmw, dynamics is miles better, engines a bit better, gearbox miles better (ZF 8 speed torque converter), ambient lighting is in another league, same with headlights, so on and so forth.

[@angushogg3667]

Great to see another excellent review from Thomas and friend Leah. I currently have a 2021 Superb and have already done over 100,000 miles on it. The first 2024 RHD demonstrator has arrived in the UK and I will be doing a much-anticipated test drive next week. I have been looking at alternatives to the Superb, including the BMW 5 Series, but it is almost impossible to find any other car with all the features of the Superb without paying £30k more. Although I have had significant software problems with my current Superb, they are all resolved now. I see this new one has some software snags too! I will be really interested to see if the 2024 model is good enough to tempt me to buy another one. My main disappointment with the new one is the arm rest that seems so much less comfortable and user-friendly than the current one. Other than that it look a winner.

[@angushogg3667]

So, I thought would add a further comment. I have today been to test drive the new Skoda Superb 2024 with a view to buying one at the end of the test. It is a beautiful car and the electronics are incredible. Of particular note are the amazing travel assist functions which are simply outstanding - incredible road holding. I have already had 2 Superbs and am very familiar with them. My current one, which already has over 100,000 miles on it is only 3 years old and has the virtual cockpit and all the functions available at the time. Despite initial software problems, it is now a great car. So, what about the new one? Well, it is bad news frankly. I did not find the 'smart dials' that smart compared to the perfectly easy push buttons and dials I currently have. I did, however, like the map zoom function available on the centre dial. There are two things that are a massive downgrades from the previous model and are, for me, show stoppers. The minor one is the centre arm rest, which used to be very soft and very adjustable. The new one is very hard, uncomfortable and only opens along the centre - it is therefore not adjustable, which is very frustrating. It would not have stopped me buying the car ultimately, but it is way worse than what it replaces - why on earth would Skoda do that? However, the really big deal are the seats. I am 6 feet 2 in tall (around 188cm) and weigh over 110kg - yes, yes, I need to lose weight! Anyway, the original seats were such a selling point to me as they were just so wide and comfy - absolutely wonderful. The new ones are full of ventilation blah, electrics, massages etc. They are, however, 3-4cm thinner at the steering wheel end than the old ones. They therefore feel very uncomfortable and are jamming your bum in place rather than just letting you sit there comfortably. Try as I might, I could not get comfortable and have, extremely reluctantly, walked away. I have waited over a year for this and am absolutely dismayed that Skoda could have been so stupid as to put such terrible and uncomfortable seats in their top-of-the-range car when they had such good ones already. I turned up today to buy one, but have ended up walking away very disappointed. I have no idea now what car to buy next, but it will almost certainly not be another Skoda. Gutted.

How would you compare the driving comfort and soundproofing between the new Superb and new Kodiaq?

[@Cloxxki]

The low drag and hatch might actually win me over. How much would you save in fuel annually as an average driver? I'd mostly be throwing in bikes and that could be not much worse with the hatch?

[@peglor]

The best thing about Skodas is that the hatch is the same length as the estate, so you have nearly 2 m of space behind the front seats with the back seats folded down. If you carry the bike fully assembled (Which is not a problem in the estate), you might find the handlebars get in the way of closing the hatch because of the lower height there. As for fuel, if there's a difference of 0.1 l/100km between them, you'll have to drive 1000 km to save a liter of fuel. My record (In a Mk2 Superb estate is 3 bikes, 3 people and a full set of camping gear for everyone, all in the car without anyone being squeezed). The bikes did have wheels removed though.

Superb needs to meet ID7 and have a baby. Seriously, Superb = Passat with much nicer exterior and interior and better UI. Very likeable car.

[@peglor]

If it weighs under 2 tonnes and isn't actively designed to kill pedestrians it's not welcome in the US 😞. A KZbin channel called 'Not Just Bikes' made a fantastic video a while back charting the history of the SUV and the massive damage it has done, especially in the US where most manufacturers aren't even making cars now. Pedestrian deaths are back to 1970s levels, as are fuel economy figures, because when US car makers failed to lobby fuel economy laws away, they moved to making 'light trucks' and marketing them to people who actually wanted cars, as the economy rules didn't apply to trucks.

[@mirceazahiu6733]

I am a bit gealos about the headrest horns function. I have a Superb 3 Facelift configured without leather (because I personally do not like it for some reason) and for my generation, only the leather interior has this option. Would the headrest from the 4th gen be compatible with the interior of the 3rd gen facelift? 🤔

Does the big screen have also a browser (while you’re standing)?

[@GeorgiKornazov]

Regarding TDI and TSI 150 hp engines, which one is better in overtaking. I see that from 0-100 they give equal times, but what about acceleration from 60 or 80 km?

[@Dan17995]

i just bought one after i've watch your video,i was having an octavia 2018 and i was looking for the new one but i think for me and my familly is better a superb,my spec 2.0l tdi 150ps,nothing fancy but it get the job done.Thank you for yor review

[@autogefuehl]

Cheers! Enjoy!

[@vetal84]

Fantastisches Auto. Gut gemacht Skoda.

[@Hercegovac.1]

It looks so much better than the Passat, plus no piano black😅 Good review as always 👍

[@peglor]

This, in estate form, will be high on my list if the 13 year old Superb estate I already have ever dies (And it's showing no sign of it yet). The only obvious downgrade on this from the Mk2 is the rear seat armrest, where depending on your height you'll be dinging your elbow off the cup holders when the car hits unexpected bumps. The Mk2 cup holders pop out of the front of the arm rest, so it can still be used as an armrest while holding drinks. It also has a storage compartment I've never used... The front arm rest isn't height and reach adjustable either come to think of it, and that would probably annoy me more.

[@ivica_maric]

Great looking car. Nice details. Like it !

[@annoymouse890]

Why won’t vw let them make a superb vRS estate with a 2.5 tsi they let cupra use it why can’t Skoda use it and make one of the greatest modern practical sports cars

[@deurkl]

This looks better then the VW Passat haha, how is this possible.

[@Swiss4.2]

Looks better, also more user friendly interior; but build quality is still not quite as good. VW Group for some reason always give the Skoda models slightly worse suspension tuning and soundproofing so the Passat is still nicer to drive.

[@midhungopan9270]

​@@Swiss4.2 Skodas always got thier simply clever touch on their cars ❤️

[@peglor]

Maybe Skoda actually listen to their customers rather than trying to tell their customers what they should want. There's no way those stupid capacitative buttons on the steering wheel would have ever passed real world customer feedback. And any car without simple things like a volume control knob in plain view on the radio will lose fans too.

[@971FWI]

I really don’t understand why it’s not available in plug in hybrid

[@maedhros0111]

Hi Tomas! What would make you decide buying this over the Škoda Kodiaq? I want to buy one of them and it’s quite difficult. My wife obviously prefers the SUV while me the sedan…

[@autogefuehl]

This one drives better for driver and co-driver, SUV has more upright seating position

[@maedhros0111]

@ thank you for your answer 👍🇪🇸

[@14Jem]

Quality cars. We have the previous model, Petrol Sportline hatch. Second Superb we have owned and they just get better. LED Matrix lights are amazing. Skoda UK dealers are good too. We had the budget for an Audi but the dealers are awful.

[@robertyoung1777]

Nice looking well thought out car with the exception of the tacked on center screen. I like the brighter headliner.

Im worried about screen, in new kodiaq its HUGE, like i have macbook on my dash...can we get chance to see 10 inch acreen?

[@vally_ny]

beautiful location Thomas, Goethe's viewpoint

[@JanNowak-cj3iq]

It looks like Skoda designers wanted to give the Superb a proper dashboard featuring a classic set of round dials but someone in the VW headquarters said: Hey there's no way you are going to make it look more luxurious than Audi! You know the deadline and I don't care how you are going to jam that LCD.

[@florinbaban1983]

Damn @26:25 you almost made a knot 🪢 with your hands! 😅

[@Romm20008]

It is DCC worth it ? I have the 2022 superb and I cant say I feel any difference between normal and confort mode. It is a difference when moving to sport mode, but I wonder if Skoda make any dcc improvement at this new model. In terms of price it would be an extra 1K euro. Didnt drive this model, some say DCC is better now, some say you can live without it.

[@autogefuehl]

yes it has now 2-valve-DCC system

[@Spies152]

wipers control on the left?

[@janstein6242]

Yes because the gear selector is on the right side. But I never touch the wiper control myself since the automatic works quite well imo

[@ankitmiglani6819]

Does it have the sunroof ?

[@autogefuehl]

sedan not, estate yes

[@petroz7605]

Does this Super have double glas (as the new Passat does)?

[@daves4026]

I have a 7 series, I prefer this superb, seriously much more practical back seat set up with head rests blanket etc very useful. Great work SKODA

[@slcarsuk]

Stop lying 😂

[@Maky313]

I thought Thomas in 4k full screen full length was an adorable man. But his better half seems even more lovely than him : )
