Skoda Superb L&K 280PS 2021

[JayB_UK]

Received on 1st March, so nice to drive it on the first day of a new registration, not that anybody cares much about new registration years anymore!

 

So far love everything, smooth cruiser, rapid turn of speed when required and a quality feel.

 

Couple of issues with wireless charing dropping out, and Apple CarPlay struggling to stay connected along with Keyless locking rarely working. I'll do some searching on here and see what I can find.

more interesting is, what DSG model it come with
old 280ps - DSG6 DQ250
272ps - DSG7 DQ381
new 280ps - DSG? DQ???, is that new 280ps realy new?

because non EU markets, as example in Russia, haven't seen yet 272ps DSG7 version

It's a new 280 hp / 206 kW engine I believe as it now has 400nm of torque between 2000-4950rpm.  There's no documentation detailing the exact DSG spec, but I can confirm it is a 7-speed.  It seems to be the same gearbox as in my father's 2019 272ps (yes, we now have matching cars! ). There's a small improvement to claimed 0-60mph with it now being 5.2 seconds. 

 

Happy to provide any other information people may require on this new UK spec if it's something I can get.
