Skoda Superb hatchback 2013 review pictures

The Superb is the largest Skoda you can buy at the moment.

The Skoda Superb offers great engines, a smart interior and huge amounts of space.

The interior is smart rather than stunning but it's classy enough and Elegance models get leather seats.

The boot is enormous - but the Twindoor boot system seems pointless and the seats don't fold completely flat.

Passengers in the back are treated to acres of legroom and a spacious, comfortable rear bench.

The Superb sits on a stretched Passat platform.

Economy is good but not stunning, and our recommended 2.0 litre TDI diesel returns 52.3 mpg.

The Superb handles well for its size.

Classy details like daytime running LED's lift the Superb further upmarket.

The roofline still looks ungainly.

An umbrella lives inside one of the rear doors, just like a Rolls-Royce.

The only car in the VW Group with more rear legroom is the long-wheelbase A8 limousine.

The familiar VW Group infotainment system is as easy to use as ever.

The rear seats do fold down, but not flat.

The Skoda Superb should be at the top of your list if you're in the market for a hugely practical family car - but check out the Estate model too.
