Aside from the revised pricing, the Slavia has also received the previously talked about infotainment system change. Skoda has replaced the 10-inch touchscreen available from the Ambition variant up with a new 8.0-inch unit. The unit still supports Skoda's connected car features though it misses out on the older unit's wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay functionality. It's only available as a wired connection.
Skoda has implemented the same update to the Kushaq compact SUV as well though the fully loaded Kushaq Monte Carlo does retain the original 10-inch touchscreen. The Kushaq's prices have not been affected.

The touchscreen replacement is related to the semi-conductor shortages faced by the entire auto industry. Skoda has previously said that the move to the 8.0-inch unit had been necessitated to keep deliveries on time and not face any undue delays.
