Which variant of the 2026 Skoda Slavia should you buy?
For most buyers, the Signature trim is the one we'd recommend. As a mid-level trim, it comes with a well-equipped feature list for its asking price, and its automatic version is a good pick for under Rs 15 lakh. Those looking for all the bells and whistles can upgrade to the top-of-the-line Prestige trim. This trim also offers the more powerful 1.5-litre TSI engine for those looking for added performance.
