Deliveries for the Kylaq will begin from January 27 of next year, and here's a brief overview of it.

Skoda Kylaq Design

Visually, the Skoda Kylaq looks like a smaller version of the Kushaq, and is built on the same platform as its larger sibling. Upfront, it features a split LED headlight setup with the traditional butterfly grille seen with other Skoda models. The chunky side body cladding gives it a rugged appearance, while the 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels give it a nice stance. At the rear, it boasts wraparound tail lights, and the silver-finished skid plates further enhance its muscular stance. 

Skoda Kylaq Interior

The cabin layout of the Kylaq resembles that of the Kushaq, but with a different black and grey interior color scheme. Premium touches include leatherette seat upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and contrasting silver elements throughout. There is also an option for a single-pane sunroof in higher-specced variants.
