The Skoda Kodiaq Scout also gets improved approach and departure angles at 22-degrees and 23.1-degrees respectively. All-Wheel Drive is offered as standard on the Kodiaq and the Scout version brings an additional 'Off-Road' mode as well on the SUV.

There are a number of active and passive safety features as well including nine airbags, 360-degree cameras, fatigue alert and more.

Based on the range-topping variant, the Skoda Kodiaq Scout comes with all the bells and whistles including ambient lighting, touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof and more. There's also park assist with hands-free parking, cruise control, 10 speaker Canton sound system, adaptive lights and more.
