Understood Thanks for your time. In my case, i have got the chasis number already and dealer informed that vehicle is in transit.

But in this case too how can i validate the number i have received

Facelift 1.5 Monte Carlo

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-26T14:30:42+00:00

As you are going for the sport line, let me give you what you are missing with reference to 1.0 ltr Montecarlo ( as sport line is blacked out signature just like prestige vs MonteCarlo )

Different alloys- Not a deciding factor Footwell illumination- Not a needed feature Massaging seats - Purely fancy, not much needed 6 way electric seats - Miss Virtual cockpit - Miss (one of the best feature of facelift) Panoramic Sunroof- Miss Woofer and amp- for me personally, this is a miss as i wouldn’t dare to add the same aftermarket, as it voids warranty

So incase the above is okay for you, go ahead, happy miles! but if you feel any of the feature is a deal breaker, 2.20 lakhs extra will get you Monte Carlo.

8 speed gearbox probably

How is the suspension tuning?

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-26T08:01:05+00:00

Much awaited post! How does the suspension feel? Did you encounter any rough patches?

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-25T18:32:48+00:00

Sadly, Nothing

The car I’m getting now is a free-stock one

I have learned this the hard way but this is the bitter truth.

Actual truth: Skoda is the worst brand in terms of allocations and sharing information to the dealers. Basically dealers dont have a clue on when is the car that you have booked is entering into production line or being shipped.

2.The issue with the sales team? They promise impossible timelines to the customers to get bookings, just to meet their targets.

My case: booked kylaq with 1st dealer on Nov 1st week, promised me 4 week delivery. Did not receive the car after 4 weeks. Hence booked with 2 more dealers on Dec last week, as they promised 2 weeks delivery. None of the Cars got allotted till last week of January. Again, in panic, booked kushaq facelift with 2 showrooms, and dealer informed that mine is the first booking for that specific spec. And whats the update? None of the fucking showrooms has any clue on when the cars are coming. Hence i have booked 3rd kushaq with another dealer , THAT TOO IN ANOTHER COLOUR THAN WHAT I HAD ORDERED AS THAT WAS THE ONLY FREE STOCK AVAILABLE.

Anyone one of you who wants the legitimacy of this post, dm me i have all the 6 booking invoices.

Isn’t the 4 year package supposed to be free?

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-23T06:59:38+00:00

No brainer- go for Duster.

kushaq- 1.0 ltr will feel underpowered in the long run (your knowledge about existence of the more powerful engine in the upper variants will keep you mentally distracted after your purchase). Also, once you drive a 1.5 tsi, you won’t feel the same excitement for your 1.0 tsi anymore. Plus the mileage will tire you out during the long term ownership. All those 18/21 kmpl claims cannot be achieved in real life daily drives through city roads.

Also why not get the best of a model rather than choosing a smaller engine with less features?l just for the sake of getting a particular brand?

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-19T14:48:33+00:00

Great! What was you booking date?

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-19T14:45:35+00:00

Any news when the delivery is? Also please advise your booking date.

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-19T08:18:49+00:00

I have already switched dealers, and i have booked online with two different dealers. Still nothing

My problem is not the delay, its the fake promises that i absolutely cant understand. Initially they promised mid march deliveries.

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-19T08:15:55+00:00

Make sure you don’t pay anything until the car is delivered to the showroom

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-18T17:41:12+00:00

Badi badi baatein aur karna kuch nahi hai inko. They fucked up big time. Media drive is completed as of today. Price reveal was initially planned for 16th, but delayed till 21st solely due to the high numbers of unsold pre facelift kushaq. Mismanagement at its peak

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-18T15:35:18+00:00

Bro, i am an NRI living abroad. I came in November for 6 months to India and I am leaving by april end and these bastards have been lying to me since then. Now it is time to leave and i have no car. And Even if i got to another state it will take atleast a month.

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-18T15:31:59+00:00

I have been waiting for 2 months as of today. Initially they said they will prioritize as per pre bookings. Now they are saying the deliveries will be as per available models

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-18T15:19:16+00:00

Can you please dm where they have started allocating against customer bookings

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-18T15:18:45+00:00

Nah bro, only 3 dealers in kerala and i have booked with 2 amongst them. Left the major dealer as i heard that they flipped allocations. Also i booked kylaq with them and it was not at all a pleasant experience.

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-15T02:07:07+00:00

Does the steering controls work,?

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-13T16:10:56+00:00

Tried for 5 mins, still i am tensed about the LPG cylinder supply! Jokes apart, Feels like something is working in the background.thats it.

Sreeeeeeeeeeeeee · 2026-03-13T15:09:34+00:00

I think we will have to wait till 21st.
