Memo to British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak: delaying the ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars won't turn the tidal wave of new EVs. It just makes you look like a Canute. These three new electric crossover-SUVs, in the heart of the UK and Europe's most popular market segment, make that very clear.

The Skoda Superb, a model from the Czech automaker, has never been offered in a sportier RS/vRS trim. However, with the new generation, Skoda is considering adding sportier looks and improved performance to its flagship model. The 2024 Skoda Superb was introduced in November in Combi and Liftback/Hatchback bodystyles, with various powertrain options including gasoline, mild-hybrid, diesel, and PHEV.
