The new trim is available on both Fabia hatch and estate models and use 1.0-litre TSI engines with prices ranging from £14,895 to £18,290.

On the Karoq SUV SE Drive includes 17-inch alloys, LED ambient lighting, a rear view camera and upgraded nav system with prices ranging from £23,385 to £26,700.
