Skoda now offers an all-new trim level – SE Plus, which is available across the entire multi-award winning model range. The SE Plus trim level is right between SE and Elegance. The new specification level offers customers savings of up to £1310.
There are also two new engines available exclusively on SE Plus trim. The first is 1.8 TSI with 152PS available on Yeti, Octavia and Superb and 2.0 TDI CR with 110PS for Octavia.
“SE Plus offers lots of extra equipment beyond SE trim at a considerably reduced cost to the customer. We’ve tailored the offering on each model to reflect the features that are most desirable. SE Plus isn’t a special edition, but a completely new trim level that will run until the end of each vehicle’s life-cycle.”, said Chris Horrell, Škoda UK’s Product Marketing Manager.
:” Features such as Bluetooth, a multi-function steering wheel and Škoda’s Amundsen touch-screen sat-nav system on the Octavia, Superb and Yeti will boost the appeal of SE Plus for both retail and corporate buyers.”, he added.
