Skoda Superb Saloon running costs and reliability
Miles per pound (mpp)
Fuel economy
The big engined model commands a fairly heavy price but doesn’t hang onto it too well. The diesel 1.9-litre TDI is the most frugal choice, returning up to 50mpg, plus cheaper models also fare better and offer improved fuel economy.
Superb performs quite well on the eco front. With an average of 193 g/km CO2 across the line-up, its emissions are fairly standard for an executive saloon. However, it’s worth noting that the line up has a high number of diesel models, bringing the average down and giving buyers more choices of low-emission versions. Diesels typically produce less CO2 than petrol engines with similar power outputs.
The range is not particularly economical, averaging 38 mpg.
Although Superb uses a well proven Volkswagen recipe and its mechanicals are fairly dependable, it isn’t immune to the occasional niggle. As ever, make sure you keep up the servicing and it shouldn’t give you too many headaches.
