Škoda Introduces Range-Topping Monte Carlo Model to the Kushaq Line in the Middle East

Škoda has announced that its latest addition, the compact SUV model Kushaq with the range-toping Kushaq Monte Carlo trim has arrived in the Middle East and will go on sale in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar and the UAE in early 2024. This motorsport-inspired compact SUV will sit atop the Czech car manufacturer’s Kushaq range and is set to appeal to younger buyers – the everyday explorers – who are looking for an affordable SUV with a sporty style and great value list of equipment.

The Škoda Kushaq is a compact SUV that adds to Škoda’s comprehensive range of SUVs, aimed at the value-driven customer. With a starting price of AED59,900 including VAT* (depending on market) it is positioned to capture a sizeable market share. The latest addition to the Kushaq line-up is the motorsport-inspired Monte Carlo variant - the first Škoda in the region to be adorned by the coveted badge.

The Monte Carlo designation has appeared on Škoda cars for 86 years, having been introduced to celebrate the company’s success and passion for motorsport from the prestigious Monte Carlo Rally in 1936. Monte Carlo is a special trim level that offers a sporty design that takes its cues from the style and emotion generated by top quality motor sport and ambience, combined with the brand’s renowned blend of value for money, practicality, comfort, and convenience.
