Pros

  • Refined 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine with DSG and AWD
  • Premium cabin with 13-inch infotainment and Smart Dials
  • Comfortable ride over rough city roads
  • Practical three-row layout with clever storage

Cons

  • The third row is best suited for children
  • Boot space is limited with all three rows in use
  • No diesel engine option available

Verdict

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.

Seshan concludes,

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