Product Overview
Skoda Kodiaq (chassis code NS7) facelift is an affordable mid-size crossover in production from 2021. It is available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.5 to 2.0 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift model, the facelifted Kodiaq has sharper lines but no notable mechanical updates.
Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, need to think twice before pulling the trigger: the Skoda Kodiaq is hardly the "offroader" that Skoda would like you to think. Utility-minded owners will love the 2065L (73cu-ft) cargo space.
Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Skoda Kodiaq uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.

Reviewer score 63%The Kodiaq has received the usual visual nip and tuck. You will mainly recognise the facelift model from the slightly slimmer headlights. Inside, there’s a new steering wheel, some grey stitching and revised ‘ergonomic seats’ As before, all trims but entry-level SE get you seven seats as standard.

Pros
- Stylish looks
- Decent infotainment system
- Lots of standard equipment
Cons
- Ride can get a bit thumpy
- Sportline trim isn’t the best
autocar[2]
Reviewer score 66%The Kodiaq sits at the more affordable end of the VW Group's SUV spectrum. The 2.0-litre turbocharged diesel powertrain produces 197bhp and 295lb ft. All USB ports have been upgraded to newer USB-C, so you’ll need the right cables (or an adaptor) to plug in your devices. There’s even an optional USB port in the roof next to the rear-view mirror, a frankly brilliant addition.

Pros
- Powerful engine
- Comfortable to drive
- Excellent infotainment suite
Cons
- Lacklustre handling
- Lack of rear-view cameras

Reviewer score 69%£40,170 SportLine model gets you a 2.0-litre TSI four-cylinder turbo engine with 187bhp and 320Nm of torque. All SportLine models come with a DSG gearbox as standard, but the two-wheel-drive 1.5 TSI 150 might be better value, at £36,340. The chassis delivers a refined and relaxing ride, while the progressive steering means the Kodiaq is still pointy and direct enough. At higher revs the turbocharged engine can sound a little coarse.

Pros

Cons
