The new Skoda Kushaq 2026 continues to use the 1.0L TSI and 1.5L TSI petrol engines. These engines produce 115bhp and 150bhp of power, respectively. The 1.0L turbo petrol engine is now available with a standard 6-speed manual transmission and a new 8-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. Meanwhile, the 1.5L TSI variants now get rear disc brakes as standard. The 7-speed DCT automatic gearbox is exclusively available with the 1.5L petrol engine.

Significant upgrades have been made inside the vehicle's cabin. The new Skoda Kushaq 2026 facelift offers a slightly larger 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Google Gemini AI assistant, wireless Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay, along with a new 10.25-inch digital driver display.

The vehicle also features a panoramic sunroof, first-in-segment rear seats with a massage function, a 6-speaker sound system, automatic climate control, a 6-way electrically adjustable front seat with ventilation, leatherette seats, and front parking sensors. A dual-tone black and beige cabin theme is available with the Prestige trim, while the Monte Carlo trim exclusively offers a crimson interior.
