According to the teaser video and leaked renders, the Skoda Vision IN will come with an aggressive look featuring a protruding chrome grille, sleek LED headlamps with LED DRLs, and wraparound LED taillights. It will be built on an Indianized version of the company's MQB-A0 platform. Meanwhile, the logo on the bonnet and the grille frame will have some sort of an illumination feature.
Inside, the Skoda Vision IN will offer a hi-tech five-seater cabin with a fully-digital Virtual Cockpit display, a floating touchscreen instrument cluster, and a flat-bottom multifunctional steering wheel with 'SKODA' lettering. Apart from that, the teaser also revealed a unique crystalline element which will be present on the middle of the dashboard, behind the infotainment panel.
The Skoda Vision IN will be available with 1.0-liter or 1.5-liter petrol engines. The former is likely to produce 115PS of maximum power and 200Nm of peak torque, while the latter will churn out 150PS. Separately, a CNG variant might as well be on the cards. As for transmission, the subcompact SUV will be offered with a 6-speed manual or an automatic gearbox option.
The Skoda Vision IN will be revealed as a concept model at the Auto Expo 2020. However, the company is likely to launch the production-ready model of the car sometime in Q2 2021 at a price of around Rs. 10-15 lakh.
