With its innovative Twindoor system, Skoda's flagship Superb already blurs the fine line between sedan, hatchback and wagon. But those crazy Europeans love their wagons, or "estates" as they call 'em over there, and VW's Czech subsidiary wants its slice of the action. So, after releasing the Superb sedan/hatch/whatsit in Geneva last year, Skoda is preparing to unveil a proper extended-roof wagon at the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show.
Like the Twindoor, the Superb Kombi is expected to offer a range of six engines – three gas and three diesels – mated to either a six-speed manual or DSG dual-clutch tranny, but may also get the addition of available all-wheel-drive as well. All Skoda has released at the moment is the teaser image you see above along with a short statement, so if you're as nuts as we are about Eastern European station wagons, you'll want to Czech 'em out after the jump.
