Skoda Kodiaq Overview

Meet the Skoda Kodiaq, the brand's flagship seven seat SUV in India. It arrives fully loaded, with a strong petrol engine and all wheel drive as standard. Buyers who want a large, premium family hauler are the target.

One powertrain runs the whole range. A 2.0 litre TSI turbo petrol produces 201 bhp and 320 Nm. It sends drive to all four wheels through a seven speed DSG automatic. That gives the big Kodiaq easy, confident pace. Power builds smoothly from low revs for stress-free overtaking. The DSG swaps ratios quickly and quietly.

Just three trims make up the range, so the choice is simple. Prices run from ₹36.99 Lakh for the Lounge to ₹46.99 Lakh for the L&K. The Sportline slots in between at ₹44.99 Lakh. To see how they differ, walk through the three Kodiaq trims.

As a family flagship the Kodiaq offers space and comfort in equal measure. Seven seats let it carry a large family or their friends. The third row folds flat when you need to haul cargo instead. With all seats up the boot holds 281 litres, growing a lot when the rear rows drop. The 62 litre tank makes long family road trips practical. Ride quality stays plush over rough surfaces at speed. Standard all wheel drive adds all-weather grip.

If you need three usable rows and a premium badge, the Kodiaq belongs on your shortlist. It blends pace, space and grip in one package. Few petrol seven seaters offer this mix of ability and polish.
