    Built-in umbrella – Premium Comfort/Elegance/Laurin & Klement trims included an umbrella compartment in the rear door. The umbrella slid into a cavity in the door panel to keep the cabin dry and free from clutter. Early press articles note that this "umbrella in the rear door" became a signature Superb detail and even pre-dated Rolls-Royce's use of the idea. When parked in rain, remember to return the umbrella to its slot to avoid puddles in the cabin.
