skoda umbrella door Page 1473

Yes, the Skoda door umbrella isn’t a myth—it’s one of those “why doesn’t everyone do this?” bits of cleverness.

There’s a dedicated compartment in the front door with drainage, so the included umbrella can drip away without turning your door card into a swamp.

In Australia it’s standard on most Superb variants, common on Kodiaq, and appears on some Octavia trims depending on year and spec.

Retrofitting the compartment to a model that didn’t ship with it is generally impractical, unless you fancy surgery on your door trim.

Replacement umbrellas are readily available from dealers and online, typically from around AUD $50, which is cheaper than turning up soggy to every meeting.
