While the rivals offer a range of engine options including petrol, diesel, CNG, and electric, the Skoda Kylaq will be available with a single 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine tuned for 113 bhp and 179 Nm of peak torque, paired with a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed torque converter. This is the same engine that powers the Skoda Kushaq 1.0 TSI version. It’ll be interesting to see if the Kylaq has managed to cannibalise the lower variants of the Kushaq in the brand’s portfolio.
