Skoda Auto India has finally revealed the all-new facelift version of the 2026 Skoda Kushaq. The updated model offers an all-new front fascia with an illuminated connected light bar and illuminated Skoda lettering at the rear. Bookings kicked off today at just Rs 15,000, sparking excitement among enthusiasts eager for a sharper, more feature-packed rival to the Hyundai Creta and the 2026 Kia Seltos.
With deliveries slated for March 2026, expect pricing from Rs 11 lakh to Rs 19 lakh (ex-showroom) in India. The facelift promises to blend European build quality with Indian road prowess, retaining its 5-star Global NCAP safety rating. Let’s check out the expected pricing and the variants available for Indian customers.

The brand has already announced that you can pre-book the all-new 2026 Skoda Kushaq facelift via Skoda Auto India’s official website by paying just Rs 15,000. As an Indian customer, follow the following steps while booking your drive from the website.

The Skoda Kushaq facelift is offered in a total of 5 different variants carried forward from the standard model. However, the top-of-the-line Monte Carlo will also be made available from the launch. The revised trim levels are Classic+, Signature, Sportline, and the top-trim level Prestige.
For the 2026 iteration, the brand offers 3 new color schemes, with 5 existing hues having carried forward from the standard version. These new colors are Cherry Red, Shimla Green, and Steel Grey. The standard 5 colors are Deep Black, Brilliant Silver, Candy White, Carbon Steel, and Lava Blue. Let’s take a tour and see what specs and features different trim levels might offer for the Indian customers.
Expected Price: Rs 11.00 Lakh
The entry-level Classic+ trim variant keeps things practical with the 1.0-liter TSI petrol engine that generates around 115 HP of power and 178 Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed manual or the new 8-speed torque converter as an automatic option.
All variants might include alloy wheels, an electric sunroof, rain-sensing wipers, a rear wiper, and a defogger, along with 6 airbags as standard.
Expected Price: Rs 12.49 Lakh to Rs 13.99 Lakh
The second trim level might be the Signature trim level, which ranges from Rs 12.49 lakh to Rs 13.99 lakh (ex-showroom) in India.

This trim might offer the following additional features:
The 1.0L TSI automatic shines here for city drives, offering smooth shifts and a claimed mileage of about 18-19 kmpl. Added cruise control and keyless entry make it ideal for urban families seeking value.
Expected Price: Rs 15.00 Lakh to Rs 17.49 Lakh
The Sportline variant introduces ambient lighting, a 10.25-inch digital cluster, and ventilated front seats. Under this trim level, you might get an 8-speed automatic transmission setup with a 1.0L TSI petrol engine. While a 1.5L DCT is also available for Indian customers. Other additional features might include the following:

Expected Price: Rs 19.00 Lakh
