Skoda Kodiaq SUV 2020 7 seat in-depth review | Mat Watson Reviews

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Some of you may remember that I reviewed the big Kodiaq back in December 2016, but now I’ve got my hands on the UK version, complete with right hand driving position to give you guys the usual full review. As you all probably know, this is Skoda’s first attempt at a seven-seater SUV and thus far, the Kodiaq has received glowing reviews which will help it compete against key rivals such as the Seat Ateca or Peugeot 3008. Skoda has also equipped the Kodiaq with a lengthy options list, could this also help the Kodiaq compete with more premium rivals? Let’s find out!

    Actually it's Škoda 130 Rapid. Not that it makes any difference, all these 80s Škoda cars were jokes. Not as bad as other Eastern bloc cars (good rustproofing, easy to maintain, great as rally cars) but not what the cars should have been if communism hadn't happened. The modern cars are just VWs with the only difference of being bigger and cheaper than their VW counterparts.

    The Indian model of Kodiaq feels much more premium than the one shown in this video also comes with lot of features.
