Skoda has shown off the first official photographs of the all-new Superb. With generous interior space and a striking new look, the 2008 Superb looks set to shake up the upper medium segment.

At 4,838mm long and 1,783mm wide the new Superb is 35mm longer and 18mm wider than its predecessor. It stands 1,461mm high and has a wheel base of 2,761mm, 8mm lower and 42mm shorter respectively than the model it replaces.

The new Superb features a number of smart technological solutions including adaptive cornering headlamps, a new electronic air conditioning system, automatic parking assist and many more specifications that will be revealed soon. Safety was one of the top priorities in developing the new Superb, and with nine airbags, it is now safer than ever.

A total of up to six engines will be available in the new Superb - three petrol and three diesel. Outputs will range from 105bhp to 260bhp and the units will be combined with a selection of manual or DSG transmissions.

The Skoda Superb will be manufactured in the car maker's Kvasiny plant in the Czech Republic. It will make its world debut at the Geneva Motor Show on March 4 and 5.
