In terms of overall dimensions, the upcoming Skoda's SUV will span roughly 4,256 mm in length and have a wheelbase of 2,671 mm. For reference, these are measurements of the Skoda's Vision IN concept. If it is anywhere close to its concept in terms of exterior looks, the SUV will have a very cheeky and brazen design which will set it apart against the competition like the Kia Seltos, Tata Harrier and Hyundai Creta.
Mechanically, expect it to be plonked with a 1.5-litre TSI petrol engine which delivers close to 150 PS of maximum power and 250 Nm. Transmission option will include a 7-speed DSG gearbox. Skoda claims that the Vision IN concept is capable of doing the 0-100 kmph sprint in 8.7 seconds and can do a top speed of 195 kmph. So it will be safe to eoect similar performance from its road legal model.
