  • Is 2020 ŠKODA Superb Scout the Best Value Vehicle?
    FULL REVIEW: wp.me/pCMun-a9O
    It is a long time since I drove a car I thought to be perfect, but ŠKODA Superb Scout comes pretty damned near to it. I’m sick of a conga-line of SUVs one after the other. Instead of a pea-soup blancmange that doesn’t know what it wants to be, Scout is the cross-over version of the family wagon that goes places. It knows exactly what it is.
    The moto of “Simply Clever”, should really be, “Utterly Brilliant.” Did you know the ŠKODA emblem is an arrow, three feathers and a circle? The Arrow for speed, the feathers for progress, and the circle to symbolise 100 years of Czech tradition. ŠKODA is no fly-by-nighter.
    Is Superb Scout good looking?
    Looks are in the eyes of the beholder, but I love it. Superb Scout is pared back and restrained. It is long and low, yet 15mm higher off the ground than her FWD sister. It is still a modest 151mm, so keep off the rocks.
    A handsome set of full matrix LED headlights is the star attraction up front. They flank the long wide grille, with bright driving lights down low.
    The body is bereft of frippery. A very few lines highlight a certain European elegance. Scout is based on VW’s MQB platform, along other VW group brands like Audi and SEAT. In fact, think of Superb as a discount Passat, or a pov model A6.
    Scout is a full-sized family car living in a segment once dominated by Falcon and Commodore. After the Australian government killed off Aussie car makers, the segment was left wide open. Sadly, passenger cars are becoming rarer and rarer as buyers opt for teller SUV models, so competition is not as tightly contested as once was.

      can't speak highly enough about them. most of the motoring writers rave.... even about the entry level cars

    Why can't Skoda seem to fix the road noise issue then? All these sweet NASA perks and yet apparently it still sounds like a footie rattle when it's on rough gravel or cobbles. Soften the shocks? Tweak the suspension? Fill the tyres with jelly? Surely they must have a solution coming soon no?

      smaller wheels would help. I've had my personal cars change completely with different tyres. it wouldn't make me not want to buy this though

      @@gaycarboys Yeah, I think the Scout set up warrants some chunkier tyres if there's room. That's going to add a little noise anyway. I just wonder why it's still a problem considering the number of complaints about it when it seems to be the only flaw. Still a very promising candidate either way though eh? It's currently sitting in tangerine right at the top of my next car list. Your vid helps too. Good job.
