Expert opinion and recommendation

The Skoda Laura Elegance is a compelling choice for those seeking a blend of performance, comfort, and features. From my experience, the Laura stands out with its robust suspension, which handles Indian roads admirably, and its smooth gearbox, particularly the DSG automatic transmission, which offers seamless shifts and minimal turbo lag. The engine performance is impressive, with a lively and responsive feel, especially in the diesel variants. However, the rear seat comfort could be improved, and the lack of certain modern features like steering-mounted controls and USB connections is noticeable. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Laura Elegance offers excellent ride quality, high-speed stability, and a plush interior, making it a solid option for those who value driving dynamics and comfort.

Price

Pricing details and changes

The Skoda Laura Elegance, although discontinued, was priced competitively in its time. The ex-showroom price for the Laura Elegance 1.9 TDI AT was around Rs. 15.95 lakh, while the on-road price would have been approximately Rs. 18-19 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. Given its features and performance, it was a good value for money. However, since the model is no longer in production, buyers would need to consider the used car market or look at newer models from Skoda.
