New Kushaq mileage is genuinely breaking my wallet

Got the 1.5 MC DSG facelift and in traffic with speeds of avg 12-16km/h it’s giving me mileage of 6 kmpl, i keep hearing from Virtus owner friends that the mileage will improve once engine crosses 5k km or when 1st annual service is done but will it actually stay like this? My Q3 gives 7-8 in bumper to bumper traffic idk wtf is wrong with the car but this is seriously some shit mileage

Kushaq 1.5 colour options

Hi guys! After a year of trying out cars I have decided I’m gonna replace my honda city with the kushaq 1.5. The moment I took a test drive, within seconds I fell in love with the car. Just a mean machine! I’m just extremely confused on the colour. I have shortlisted two it’s either carbon steel or green! I like the green but not sure whether it will look equally good a few months down the line. My wife has a carbon steel kylaq and that looks kinda stealth and classy even 10 months post purchase. Which one wud u pick?

10+ weeks and counting: Skoda dealership in Pune has "no updates" on my Kushaq delivery

Need some advice or reality checks on Skoda delivery timelines right now, specifically in Pune.

  • Booked Kushaq Classic Plus MT on May 13th.
  • Official email stated 6-8 weeks waiting, sales rep promised under 2 months.

It has been 10+ weeks (2.5 months) with zero progress.

Every time I follow up with the Pune showroom, I get the same copy-paste answers: "We will try by this month-end" or "No updates from the company."

Is anyone else facing this massive delay for the Kushaq Classic+ variant? How are Pune dealerships handling your deliveries, and how did you get them to finally cooperate?

The Dream Machine is Home

Prestige 1.5 TSI,

I wanted the Montecarlo 1.5 TSI very badly. But, since the VW-Skoda plant in Pune has no plans to start the production at least till September (as per reliable sources), I skipped the waiting and got Prestige 1.5 instead. And honestly apart from some slight difference in interior color and the Montecarlo Badging, there is no much technical difference between the two.

A short prelude 😉:

In April 2012, when our family bought our first car, we didn't have a proper car delivery or any fancy photos and videos. It was just my father and me going to bring that cute boy—a Ritz Diesel—home. I was only 13 years old then, already completely in love with these beautiful machines, welcoming a new member into our family.

​Fifteen years later, here is that same boy—though admittedly with less knowledge about new car mileages than that 13-year-old had 😜—bringing his dream machine, the Skoda Kushaq, home. The love for motoring never ends...

​Cheers to more machines, more motoring, and absolute thrill!

Firm Suspension & Noisy Cabin in Kushaq 1.0 AT

I recently took the test drive of the Skoda Kushaq 1.0 AT (8TC) and have the following queries,

  • The cabin feels quite noisy at city speeds, and the engine and transmission seem to work hard, providing an unsettled experience.
  • The new 8TC feels jumpy the moment I press the accelerator, making it difficult to control in stop-and-go traffic. The previous 6TC (which I tried in Slavia, Kylaq) felt better.
  • The suspension is quite firm in city speeds, and concrete roads are quite noticeable.

Please share your thoughts on this.

70mai with western digital purple 128gb write issue

I purchased the 128GB Western Digital memory card for my 70mai510 dashcam. Whenever I use it for long trips (more than 4 hours), the dashcam frequently shows a write speed error. Flipkart recommended this card for the 70mai, but it doesn't seem to maintain the required sustained write speed.

The only temporary fix is to disconnect the dashcam's power supply and reconnect it, after which the issue disappears until it happens again. Based on my experience, I would recommend avoiding the Western Digital memory card for use with the 70mai dashcam.

Please recommend a good memory card

Still confused about going for Kushaq 1L Monte Carlo, or Creta/Seltos 1.5NA Top models for all the features offered there! My ride will be more in city (around 100km a week), highway on some weekends (300-400km), and I drive normally and safe. Suggestions please (I prefer smaller, safe, and premium)
