Skoda To Drop The 10-inch Infotainment Screen On Slavia

Skoda Auto India is planning to replace the 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system on the Slavia with a smaller unit according to recent speculations. According to some dealerships that carandbike spoke to, the 10-inch infotainment screen on the sedan will be replaced with a smaller 8-inch unit on the higher variants. The new screen is reportedly being sourced from Panasonic and is being done to circumvent the ongoing semiconductor chip shortage. Additionally, some top variants are also expected to miss out on wireless charging. Aside from skimping on these features, Skoda is also going to give the Slavia its first price hike since its launch and the quantum of the price hike is expected to be up to Rs. 50,000, depending on the variant. carandbike has reached out to Skoda for an official confirmation and will update the story as and when the company responds.
