Škoda Superb wins Caravan Club Towcar of the Year!!!
The New Superb 2.0 TDI has won the overall
title in The Caravan Club Towcar
of the Year
Awards 2009. The
car, which also won the Ł20,000 to Ł25,000 class, beat 37 rivals to the title,
including the
defending champion, the Ford Mondeo Titanium X 2.5 T
Estate.
The Superb’s
stylish design, load-carrying capability, practicality and outstanding value for
money were all praised by the judges, who said: “Superb buyers will get a
stylish, modern and practical car with great fit and finish. One of its best
features is the rear load compartment. The ‘caravanability’ judges found it
would take a full load of caravanning equipment, and loved the Škoda’s unique
rear tailgate design that can be opened as a conventional saloon boot or
hatchback.
“The Superb is
what you’d call a thoroughly nice car. There is acres of room for everyone,
comfortable seats and the driver is rewarded by a powerful but quiet engine and
one of the slickest six-speed gearboxes around. Our guess is that it will become
one of the all-time caravanning favourites.”
Now in their
26th year, The Caravan Club Towcar of the Year Awards are among the most
influential honours in the sector. The overall title guarantees fantastic
publicity for the winner, with pride of place in a special supplement sent out
to every one of the Caravan Club’s almost half a million member households.
Winning the award should provide a fantastic boost for sales in what has been a
growing market over the past few years, with many young families in particular
discovering the joys of caravanning.
Škoda UK Brand
Director Robert Hazelwood said: “We are very proud to have won this prestigious
award. The Superb offers class-leading levels of space, comfort and equipment,
and is sure to be a winner in the towcar market.”
