In a market increasingly dominated by SUVs, it's often tempting to wonder whether there's really still a place for a conventional 'D'-segment Passat-class model like this. Even if you were set on choosing a Skoda, why wouldn't you buy a Karoq or a Kodiaq for this sort of money? To continue to justify its place in the range, this fourth generation Superb had to offer a more credible answer to that question; and, by and large, it has.
It still won't really satisfy the very few people who come to this class in search of dynamic handling. But otherwise, there's much to like here. Not least the kind of exterior elegance that fits in as comfortably at a high class hotel as it does on a taxi rank. Above all, the Superb delivers space, and that's a quality you can never really have too much of in this corner of the market. Why? Because it's the one attribute where more mainstream marques can really land a telling blow on the premium badges. Something similarly priced like a BMW 3 Series or an Audi A4 is always going to feel more cramped inside than a Skoda Superb - and the advantage of the Superb Estate in that regard is particularly notable.
This then, remains a convincing flagship for Skoda's increasingly impressive model line-up, offering real luxury in an everyday accessible package. It's now safer, slicker and, particularly in plug-in form, more technically advanced too. Or, to put it another way, it is, to use Skoda's words, 'Simply Clever'.
