In a market dominated by SUVs, the new Skoda Superb Combi quietly reminds you why large wagons still make a lot of sense. Sold as the “Selection Wagon” in the GCC market, the Superb Combi blends executive-car comfort with practicality that even many SUVs struggle to match. It is spacious, refined, efficient and surprisingly enjoyable to drive, all while standing out from the crowd with its understated European styling.
The all-new Škoda Superb has officially made its Middle East debut, marking the flagship of the Czech automaker’s renewed push into the region. To experience the new model firsthand, we travelled to Prague, the heart of Škoda’s operations, to test drive both the Superb sedan and the Superb Combi, the elegant station wagon variant that remains incredibly popular across Europe.
