If there are Oscars for Automobile Journalism, AUTOCAR would do a clean sweep... That's how amazing you guys are.. Thanks for the visual treat!!

@autocarindia1 Год назад

Thanks so much for the kind words!

@maamajhigouri1207 Год назад

The more I see videos of Leh and Ladakh , the more I fall in love with it. I hope you had an amazing time

@autocarindia1 Год назад

Absolutely!

@streetrider1987 Год назад

Loved to visit those places. I'm telling you, Skoda the brand is big game changer and never give up the quality and robustness. Now, the new Kodiaq has globally launched and I am awaiting for an experience.

@foju9365 Год назад

I can tell that the team here really enjoyed not only this trip but the editing, the music - everything seemed to come together. I am fortunate we live in such a beautiful country and that we have great cars with which to traverse it and experience it. I love Leh, love India

@autocarindia1 Год назад

Thank you :-)

I did Ladakh at the time of the recent himachal floods... That too in polo... Through the landslides, the slush and snow, polo dint give up... Ultimate adventure trip!

Big thanks to Indian Army for protecting our borders and thanks to BRO for building fantastic roads🇮🇳Autocar thanks for making great video..really enjoyed😊

@Seventh7Art Год назад

Almost 5800 meters above sea level is very impressive. On a side note, the highest altitude that an off road vehicle has driven at, is actually 6700 meters... In the Andes (Chile). Ojos Del Salado on Atacama desert is the exact place...

@vipinkamble97 Год назад

The route from Disket directly to Pangong would have truly checked the capabilities of the cars!

@prakashkewalramani9059 Год назад

Wow. Excellent vdo live vdo. It requires daring to drive at 19,000 klms+ height. Superb explanation of the both Skoda cars. Nikhil looks dashing n has a very good control over his driving. To end up his voice n explanation speech of the cars is commendable. Hats off you. 👌👌👍👍✌. The other guys too are good, but Nikhil is the best. I hold high regards for him. God bless you, your family n your team. 🙏🙏

Excellent journey log, my memory is still so fresh we did this journey from Bangalore in MK1 Octavia in 2004 with its sports car rivalling low ground clearance , in comparision Slavia must be a great combination of sedan with SUVish GC. Thanks for sharing.

The Kodiaq is my baby, its hyper-sensitive steering and engine response are just a thrill drive. even in the close city drive and winding terrain roads

Thanks to those Turbocharged engines the drive was possible even with less oxygen in air. Those Turobochargers did their job of compressing thin air with less oxygen.

What great content, it always feels good to watch any ladakh series, but this one was special as both the skoda did it so well. Keep bringing this kind of stuff. Kudos to the team autocar. The best part was Hanle to Umlinglaa and the way Rahul steered slavia. Awesome work

The Skoda Kodiaq recommends use of 95octane petrol. Is it available in Ladakh area or you used 91 octane during the trip ?

@autocarindia1 Год назад

Hi. We used regular petrol for the trip.

@Ram-lu1wn Год назад

Great video. Since I have a Virtus GT, I’m curious to know how the DSG in the Slavia managed to navigate the bad roads?

@NikhilOnCars Год назад

Hi. It's possible but it's not an easy trip. Not everyone will be comfortable with the altitude and cold, and accomodation outside of Leh is comfortable but basic. Also, if traveling towards Hanle, you'll have to make arrangements for fuel.
