Skoda Karoq - the complete guide: aex.ae/2H0QSWy
Car buyers can’t get enough of SUVs, which is why every major maker is expanding its line-up in this rapidly growing area of the market. Latest to arrive on the scene is the new Skoda Karoq, a model which has an integral role to play in the firm’s long-term plan to significantly increase sales by 2025. More than that, though, it has a hard act to follow, replacing the much-loved Yeti as the company’s contender in the mid-size SUV class. To find out just how good it is, we sent James Batchelor on a special 1,500-mile road trip from the Czech Republic to the UK…

As with most of James Batchelor's reviews, this was more about him than the car. We learned more about continental chocolate bars than we did about the Karoq...or was it a Kodiaq? He didn't seem sure.

Is it correct to think the Karoq is also self cleaning? Despite the rain, snow and possibly dust, the car didn’t appear to collect any road grime at all. Might this be a first for Skoda that perhaps all other manufacturers will emulate?

Me too. "Over 40mpg" is very vague... I have a 10 year old Focus CC 2.0 TDCi. Last year I did a 2200 mile trip around Europe, France, Luxembourg, Germany, Denmark, The Netherlands and Belgium... I averaged 45.4mpg even with the roof down for most of it, the boot and backseats full of 2 week's worth of clothes, food, camping gear. I got to 124mph on the autobahn but just couldn't reach the claimed top speed of 125 😂

Really enjoyed this, thanks. Great to see a review like this which is the kind where you really get to know a car. I dread northern France too but not as much as the M25. Is it a Karoq or a Kodiaq though (go to 9:14)?!

Did anyone notice the Top Gear Easter Egg in this? No? When James is eating all those chocolate bars and says "That was a most delicious lunch, much looking forward to my supper" it is almost exactly what Jeremy Clarkson said when he ate a load of chocolate when he drove a Jaguar XJR to Scotland but he said "tea" not supper.

I'm not saying the skoda and ateca are bad, however there is a difference especially in the relatively dull seat interiors
