昕锐并非斯柯达家族中最有吸引力的车型,但斯柯达设法通过改款让标准版和Spaceback版本都变得更具吸引力。新车最大变化是车头部分,一对双氙气前大灯和LED日间行驶灯让车头造型更显档次。前保险杠也进行了改款,新的雾灯造型与明锐改款车的雾灯类似,使车头感觉更宽阔。车尾改款包括更时尚的C形尾灯组,同时后保险杠也进行了改款。Spaceback版本和后窗也比老款车更大。无论何种车型都采用了新的合金轮圈,尺寸在15-17英寸之间。至于动力系统,新车搭载了新的1.0升三缸涡轮引擎,输出功率有70千瓦/95马力和81千瓦/110马力两种。另有一台1.4升四缸TSI引擎,功率93千瓦/125马力。除了汽油引擎,还有1.4和1.6升TDI柴油引擎,功率分别为66千瓦/90马力和85千瓦/116马力。
2017 Skoda Rapid brings sophisticated facelift to Geneva
The Rapid is certainly not the most exciting car in its segment, but Skoda has managed to make it more appealing by giving the spacious model in both standard and Spaceback versions what we would call an attractive facelift. The biggest changes are noticeable at the front where the upper-spec models are going to rock a pair of bi-xenon headlights with LED daytime running lights lending the cars a more upmarket appearance.
The front bumper was also subjected to some tweaks and it now hosts new fog lights similar to those on the Octavia facelift to make the car seem wider when viewed from the front. Other updates have been implemented at the back of the Rapid where the stylish taillights display Skoda’s corporate “C” motif, while the bumper has also been revised. Go for the Spaceback version and the rear window is going to be bigger than before. Both body styles have also received new alloy wheel designs in sizes ranging from 15 to 17 inches.
If you’re not impressed by the cosmetic surgery, Skoda’s doctors have also made some skin-deep changes. Indeed, underneath the hood now resides the turbocharged 1.0-liter engine with three cylinders and set to be offered in two states of tune: 95 horsepower (70 kilowatts) and 110 hp (81 kW). The larger four-cylinder 1.4 TSI soldiers on with 125 hp (93 kW), along with the 1.4 and 1.6 TDIs generating 90 hp (66 kW) and 116 hp (85 kW), respectively.
