About this generation

The first revived Superb generation was built on the stretched VW Passat B5 platform.

The Superb I marked the brand's return to the executive class. The car was characterized by immense rear legroom, which became its main selling point. The engine lineup included V6 gasoline units, 1.8T turbo engines, and reliable 1.9 TDI diesels. Available only as a sedan, it was positioned as a comfortable and affordable limousine.
