CarTell take

We haven't driven the Kodiaq yet. On paper, skoda dealer footprint is the smallest of the VW Group brands. Confirm a local service centre before committing in regional markets. A plug-in hybrid Kodiaq iV is available globally but not confirmed for Australia.

Why consider it

  • 2,500 kg braked towing tops the seven-seat unibody SUV class.
  • 7-year warranty matches the Korean competition.
  • Smart Dials below the screen restore proper physical climate, audio and drive mode controls.

What to know

  • Mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid Select grades now join the range, but the 2.0 petrol 4x4 grades are thirsty against hybrid seven-seater rivals.
  • RS at $70,590 plus on-roads overlaps with Sorento HEV and CX-90 entry pricing.

Who it suits

Seven-seat families, caravan towers and driver-focused buyers who want a unibody seven-seater with 2,500 kg braked tow, AWD standard, and a cabin that restores physical climate controls via Skoda's Smart Dials.
