SKODA'S FIRST SUV quickly made a strong name for itself; the original Kodiaq combined a classy interior with seven-seat versatility and great value for money, wrapped up in a fashionably chunky shape. Now, a new generation is on the way that promises to build on those virtues, while offering a revised range of engines designed to improve efficiency.
With production beginning early next year, the Kodiaq will continue to share parts with other family SUVs from the VW Group, including the Volkswagen Tiguan. We'll have to wait until later this year for prices, trims and standard kit to be confirmed, but we know that racier-looking SportLine models will be offered alongside the more restrained regular trims, and a hot VRS version is likely to arrive later.
At launch, there will be two petrol and two diesel engine options, with the more powerful variants fitted with four-wheel drive. And because 97% of first-gen Kodiaqs were ordered with the smooth-shifting DSG automatic gearbox, it's now standard on all versions.
