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!

Loved the "hidden" old school Škoda. Was actually my favorite car as a kid!
My Octavia is 11 years old, and after almost 300.000 km still runs very good. Oils, filters and gas is all she needs. I like the Kodiak. Maybe my next car... when they become available as second hand vehicles :)

I have a 2007 Octavia wagon. I bought a 2021 Kodiaq this year & love it. We kept the Octavia as a car for my mum to use when she visits as it still runs fine, just some paint issues.
This car is just so damn good. I could tell Mat was really really impressed.

I’m a VW owner and I have to admit, the Skoda is very cool. Also with VW, the sat nav, alcantara seats and LED lights are optional extras, whereas on this Skoda they are free on expensive models. I wouldn’t mind one! Lol.

Skoda is a VW
Such a good car! Good review as always
Great video review as usual plus love the 120L in the upper glove box. Funny touch
In Australia we have 4 models, a 132tsi and 132tsi Sportline and 140tdi and 140 TDi Sportline, I have a tsi Sportline with absolutely everything, 360 camera, blindspot, lane assist and different driving modes
How can this video be 5 years old when 2020 was just 2 years ago...
I love that detail with HTC smartphone with old Skoda Rapid picture :D
really good review ! thank you loving this car
Picture of old Skoda 120 in mobile phone in the glovebox is good joke :-)

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.

Please review the "Skoda Superb Hatchback" Thank you😊, really great and useful review.

Great car very practical. With load's of space for the family. Big thumbs up.
Great review. Love watching these segments. Can Carwow do a Kodiaq vs Discovery Sport and vs Asian counterpart like Santa Fe. SUVs are very popular in Australia and would love to see these comparisons since Skoda kodiaq has just been released down under. Great job guys.
Ahhhhh Matt, you didn't say "the very back"! You're the only other person I've ever heard say it (apart from my family) + you use an Android phone! Top quality man!!!
I'm glad that I found this video. Thanks for making my life a little easier in comparing a car. Skoda is a good brand, but not many people know.
I've had 3 skoda cars , getting my new kodiaq in July and cant wait 😁
It only comes in one variant here in India and is priced at 44500 GBP which is nuts. Man it's tough buying cars here.

Great review Mat....what would you choose and why between a Skoda Kodiaq and Tiguan Allspace ? Your opinion will really help me decide which one to go for....thanks in advance
I think the fact that you only have two baby seat points is a good safety feature if you get rear ended or maybe in a head-on collision
This is the only review channel where I'll watch, whether I like the car or not lol 😂
Just about to purchase this very car and was a little sketchy on whether to get it as some of your reviews on Skodas has been a not get it! But this one has you and many friends giving it a thumbs up! So know I'm getting the right car now!
"First really desirable Skoda?" Depends on your aspirations of course but Skoda make some lovely cars, especially in decent spec.... Octavia RS, Superb Estate with 190 PS diesel in high trim.... and others. All great cars, with good residuals.... Residuals...now there is a good test of being desirable.

Yeah, that comment was a bit jarring, Skoda's been making damn good cars for decades now.
I think this is the only new car that i would actually buy!
That sneaky skoda rapid at 5:03 also I recommend buying a tempered glass screen protector because the basic one looks horrible peeling off in the corners.
Danm. My car gets only 28mpg and it only has a 1.5 110hp Petrol. My old car, which had a 0.8L 70hp diesel got 71mpg. This gets 40 which is amazing for an SUV! Definitely better than every other SUV here in Canada

Still waiting for the 2017 Mazda 3 review. I really want to know your opinion Matt, please do it.
The Skoda Kodiaq will be on my wishlist to Santa C this year.
Good review. Please include towing capacity.
One correction : You can have isofix in the front passenger seat as an option.
Please do a video on ford endeavour... I'm planning to buy one
Is the Karlq review on the way yet?
I don't understand about jerky dsg great box???
5:03 Nice one!
Skoda cracked it another very practical SUV my only criticism is it should have had ISOFIX on ALL seats apart from that it a very cool vehicle.
Hey Watson please review the toyota fortuner 2017, if its available in the UK mate.
11:30 now I love skoda's, I think they are amazing and I have one. But I do think that skoda have sponsored carwow to say that 'you should go right ahead and buy it' (the car) on their past two reviews😕
Wherever the hell you’re reviewing this car, and driving it, looks really nice and peaceful.

Thanks to Matt watson boring car reviews are fun to watch !!!
You can see where they are sharing parts with VW. Infotainment system and the seat design come directly from the new Tiguan!
I am looking to purchase a Skoda Kodiaq. I am thinking of getting the Active (base model) with 2.0 diesel with 150hp FWD DSG. What do you think Mat? Is the 4x4 really worth the money? Thanks. Also congratulations on your new Suzuki Jimmny.
Nice estelle placement
I wonder, if you put all the seats down in the back, can you fit a double mattress in the back, while still able to close the boot door?
Do a comparison video between this and the new 5008
i love the look of this car if i could afford it id have one in grey
Can you make a video od seat leon or leon fr?
Is this related to the new VW Atlas? Exterior design looks similar. Starting to see the Atlas in Austin, Texas.
Nice looking car 👍🏻

Guys a serious question: how do you turn off the infotainment display, but keep the radio on? I just don't want to be blinded by the display when driving at night. Thanks! Btw: the setting in the settings menu (turn off after 10s) is not sticky = it doesn't stay checked when you turn off the car. :(
Mat you need need to test the Peugeot 3008 1.6 petrol auto against this Karoq but as a 1.5 petrol with auto, these two cars must be best in class, but how would you rate them.

Hi would you please test RENAULT KOLEOS
How are you driving the 2020 Kodiaq, on 2017 plates?
this car is actually pretty good
And no option to get a manual gearbox unless you go for 4WD. I don't need 4WD or 7 seats, but I do want luxury (SE L or Edition). That would really bring the cost down further if Skoda listen.
Is their no seat warmers in the front?
The Indian model of Kodiaq feels much more premium than the one shown in this video also comes with lot of features.
i wonder why skoda doesnt move the badge to the middle of the grill so it doesnt look plain black
best value car on the market!
It is the best car of 2017. Congratulations skoda !!
