Audi A6 vs Skoda 2025 Kodiaq Comparison

The new 5th generation Audi A6 sedan impresses on several levels and leaves its predecessors shortcomings far behind. On the inside the A6 will truly impress as the cabin has moved up several notches on not just design, materials and gadgets, but most importantly - on comfort. The last car had a very awkward rear bench and the new A6 will pamper its rear-seat biased owners with a very comfortable bench and seatback angle. The A6 will be a credible and robust addition to the Audi sedan portfolio.

The Skoda Kodiaq remains a premium family SUV that focuses on comfort, practicality, and a refined driving experience. We evaluated its overall package and found that the 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine paired with a DSG automatic gearbox and standard all-wheel drive delivers smooth and effortless performance. The ride quality also stands out, as the suspension comfortably absorbs rough roads while keeping passengers relaxed.

Inside, the cabin feels modern and well-equipped with a 13-inch touchscreen, digital driver’s display, Smart Dials, and a 13-speaker Canton sound system. Rear passengers benefit from good seat support and their own climate controls, while Skoda’s ‘Simply Clever’ storage solutions add everyday practicality. The Kodiaq’s overall balance of comfort, features, and practicality makes it a strong option for buyers looking for a premium three-row family SUV.

“It will be interesting to see if the new Kodiaq can replicate the success of the previous generation in India.”
