12:21 Thomas, back in the lounge :D now this is a spacious car... drove a 2014 Superb for a few years, and friends sitting over from Mercedes E-class said it was huge inside
Best wishes for 2016 from Scotland! Many thanks for all your excellent and comprehensive reviews... they certainly helped me to choose my new Mercedes V220 last month.
Hi, Can you tell me if the Skoda Superb 2016 tsi 7 speed DSG is reliable or still has problem? Would really appreciate if you help and keep up the good videos!
I like all of the special features Skoda has added. They've done an amazing job making the Passat their own. I'm wondering if there might be a software update. Most demo cars are forgotten and updates not done.
Comfort mode is good in city, on exprees road on corner it is too soft and car is flying! :D I felt the driffrence very good, under 120km/h comfort is very good. Quality of interior is better than in Passat in my opinion, and space is very huge! I love this car. Greetings from Poland :)
Correction: Passat and Skoda models with 2.0 TDI and 2.0 TSI engines have the same 6-speed DSG/DCT. With both cars, all other engines (and also the largest Passat dual turbo Diesel engine) get the inferior and notoriously unreliable 7-speed DCT .
+Hans Olo The smaller engines use the 7 speed (DQ200, dry clutch) gearbox, indeed. However, this gearbox is rated up to 250 nm of torque only, obviously not enough for the strongest diesel with 500 nm. Therefor the 7 speed gearbox used on the 240 hp diesel is not the DQ200, but a completely different one (DQ500, wet clutch).
Hi Autogefühl Crew and Community. Nice Review of an nice Car. I Love the 2.0 litre Turbo Petrol engine, but this Engine don`t fit into this Car. I saw some Test`s from the B8 Passat with the 1.4 tsi act dsg, All the Testers said it is an good combination... Maybe this is the engine you need in the Superb, when you dont want a Diesel. 11 Liters with these GTI Engine... Its way to much for a Everyday Drive Car...
Dear Thomas, I really enjoyed the Skoda Superb video. I see that you have received many "superb" comments, so I won't add to your misery. ;-) I will just mention one thing that I hope will give you some perspective. The Skoda Superb - as you have mentioned - is a premium class sedan. It's not known or loved for its sportiness. I felt that you spent too long on the sport mode of the steerting and suspensions giving the whole video a negative Gefühl. It was not well balanced with the overall advantages and merits of the car. As you correctly pointed out, someone looking for something sporty might enjoy the Octavia (V)RS model better. You could have spent more time on highlighting the real benefits and value of the Superb. This is my personal opinion of course. I hope it helps. Great job! Keep it going. Best wishes, Govind
Happy New Year and an excellent 2016 for you Thomas and for the all Autogefuhl family ! Excellent review, for a Superb car, as the name says and with the best room in her class, from this comparison and from the all middle segment, for a sedan version. Thomas I have two questions for you : 1) I don't understand from this video, when you pick the DCC for this car, it means automatically that it contains adaptive suspension and Driving Mode Selection with button inside the car, or it must be chosen separately, the all three things: DCC mode, adaptive suspension and the Driving Mode Selection Button? 2 ) What is your opinion about the combination 2.0 TDI 150 hp DSG Sedan Style, on this car, for everyday driving and also for the highway, it is powerful enough for a normal driving style, and for some overtakes on the highway ( not for sporty style ) and what do you think, it is also economically for 2.0 capacity and 150 hp ?
+Cris FanCars thanks and happy new year to you as well! DCC is indeed the adaptive suspension combined with the driving modes. 150 hp TDI is powerful enough for sure if you dont wanna race
6:20 He got his message across :D Gambling can be addictive Great Review Thomas, as always! I too usually don't like silver but this silver color is breathtaking! :-O What's the name of it?
Have a very great year, Thomas and the whole Autogefuehl team! As to the Škoda Superb - It was very sad to notice at 1min20sec mark the appalling crappy paintwork on the car's side near that Laurin&Klement insignia. Some years ago my sis bought Škoda Fabia with a very good original paintwork, so I am able to compare. The paintwork has definitely gotten worse.
Hi and happy new year, yesterday i tested new insignia and new passat b8, actuallly i liked insignia very much, but is has small boot capacity, when i went to skoda showroom no test car available for testing superb. what is your opinion about these cars thank you.
im sure i read the steering adapts to speed so i don't think you will notice much difference between settings when driving slowly in traffic .. and did you cut off the end of the review ? :)
+altern8ive It's because the video is cut of from another video where Thomas, reviews 3 cars at the same time :) from this video Skoda Superb vs VW Volkswagen Passat B8 vs Mazda6 Facelift COMPARISON review test new VERGLEICH neu
Most important part of a car are the tyres. I replaced the Pirelli tyres for Hankook K115s on my 2.0tsi to reduce road noise. Will always use these tyres.
Thomas, I think this is your last video of 2015. Thank you and the Autogefuhl team for all the amazing work this year!
+gbriank1 thank you so much for your support!

Thanks Thomas. It may not be original, but I wish you a superb new year! :-)

Great way to celebrate the end of 2015/beginning of 2016 by reviewing a great car! Happy new year Thomas!
+MoneyDawg happy new year!

New Skoda after 2016 - is so good
I like all of the special features Skoda has added. They've done an amazing job making the Passat their own. I'm wondering if there might be a software update. Most demo cars are forgotten and updates not done.
Cannot wait for this to be available in Australia
Happy new year autogefühl ! Really looking forward 2016
+Arlindo „val“ Baby please happy new year!
those lines... i am in love :)

Happy New Year, Thomas! Great review as always!
+Miguel Berghs best wishes for 2016!
Looks nice, too bad its not available here in the US. BTW Happy New Year Thomas!
+Rahul Verma happy new year rahul !
Have you had the chance to check out the new sonata hybdrid (high trim) ? what do you think when you compare it to the superb ?
Dunno why, but I didn't like skoda at all so far. so far :) it's really seems a high quality product! btw, happy new years Thomas and the Team!
+Sandor Muranyi happy new year!

+Heisen Berg As seen in the big comparison, I drove the 1.8 TFSI in the Passat and found that very fitting
nice job again, and happy new year
+redek boštjan happy nu year!

+Govindarajan N thx for the feedback, i feel totally positive about the superb, just giving advice for which preference its perfect
First Happy New Year. It would be nice to see you test the 1.4 tsi. I'm curious if it would be a good choice for someone that doesn't need a diesel.
+TheMegamsp happy new year! Sure why not .. they dont offer engines for a car that dont fit the car at all
Happy New Year and an excellent 2016 for you Thomas and for the all Autogefuhl family !

super review, super Auto. kleiner Tipp: du sagst zu oft "here" im Englischen ;)
merci!
As a big fan of Skoda I'm very upset it's not even sold in US
6:20 He got his message across :D Gambling can be addictive
Great Review Thomas, as always! I too usually don't like silver but this silver color is breathtaking! :-O
What's the name of it?
thanks pal !
Thomas, can you please make a review of the Lexus IS 200t :)?
Have a very great year, Thomas and the whole Autogefuehl team!

+Andris Romanovskis happy new year! Interesting, what exactly you mean by crappy paintwork? the l & k logo?
+Autogefühl I would like to send you couple of screenshots that illustrate my point. UNF cannot upload any picture here.
+Andris Romanovskis sure you ll find our email address in the channel info or in the community video description
A very good reasonably priced car.
Nice car. Do you think it's better than the Ford Mondeo Vignale?
+Simon Ingram yes
i dont know what to buy... skoda superb 2016 or bmw 328i 201
help please
+220482has is space important to u? Go superb. Is sporty ride more important? Go bmw
Hi and happy new year, yesterday i tested new insignia and new passat b8, actuallly i liked insignia very much, but is has small boot capacity, when i went to skoda showroom no test car available for testing superb. what is your opinion about these cars thank you.
+Mehmet Bakır happy new year! See the comparison here: ruclips.net/video/YLplgsCxY-Q/видео.html
Would u pick the passat estate or skoda superb estate?
+TV Phavela Both great picks for sure. I would decide by personal taste of the exterior/interior and the final offer you get at the dealer's
how about the 1.4 tsi act? do you think fully loaded it is enough for autobanh speeds 140-160?
+Robert Pricope I think so. But you shouldnt expect big acceleration with fully loaded of course. Just will take some more time.
im sure i read the steering adapts to speed so i don't think you will notice much difference between settings when driving slowly in traffic .. and did you cut off the end of the review ? :)
+altern8ive It's because the video is cut of from another video where Thomas, reviews 3 cars at the same time :) from this video

+PurplePois0n exactly m8 :) ruclips.net/video/YLplgsCxY-Q/видео.html
PurplePois0n ah, thank you, i'd missed that upload :)
Help -is the 1.4 tsi (150ps) manual powerful enough for a full loaded estates
+Tomas Oliver That depends. Are you driving like a grandpa, or like a boyracer?
+ast5515 Thanks
Fast-ish with constant revs so in the middle maybe slightly closer to boy racer
+Tomas Oliver fully loaded overtaking cars on the motorway might lack some power. If you are driving calmly, it will work
Please review Genesis G70
Will you also review the 280 4x4 please?
+Mic L trying to get the Superb Sportline next!
+Autogefühl thank you for the reply. Will that be offered with the 280ps engine and 4x4 or is it just design and specification differences?
+Mic L it's a sporty line for exterior and interior. Can be combined with any engine afaik
Excellent, hope you test the 280 4x4 sportline. Thank you for the reply.
My UK Superb 2.0 TSI L&K is very noisy, both road and engine noise. So disappointing. I can only assume German L&K has extra sound insulation.
My superb style 2017 is very silent. They made better isolation from 2017.
Most important part of a car are the tyres. I replaced the Pirelli tyres for Hankook K115s on my 2.0tsi to reduce road noise. Will always use these tyres.
best car (y)
Audi is a little bb for Superb. :D
super
A "Superb" Review! lolll :)
