Skoda has updated the Kushaq SUV and Slavia sedan with new variants that will be offered with its powerful 1.5-litre TSI petrol engine. The engine was earlier reserved for the top-end variants Style and Monte Carlo. Now the Czech carmaker has introduced the engine in the lower trim called Ambition.
