Note: This review was filmed in late 2019 and not during the current lockdown.
Welcome everyone to my review of the Skoda Kamiq.
The Kamiq is the latest model to join Skodas growing line up and is the Czech brands smallest SUV/Crossover, putting the larger Karoq in the middle of the SUV line up under the larger 7-seat Kodiaq. But unlike those larger SUV's, the Kamiq is not AWD but FWD. So no off-roading in this little crossover.
Underneath the Kamiq it shares the same platform with the Seat Arona and Volkswagen T-Cross but goes about it in a very Skoda way. So it's not a jacked up version of the Scala hatchback as that is a medium sized family car despite both sharing the MQB-A0 platform.
Th Kamiq that's been reviewed;
Škoda Kamiq SEL
1.0 TSI 115PS DSG
Options fitted;
Electrically adjustable drivers seat - £475
Metallic Paint (Rallye Green) - £595

@ericgraham7026 4 года назад
Thanks for another informative and enjoyable review. I think the Kamiq is a big improvement on styling over the other Skodas. What would be of great interest to me is if you were able to get hold of reliability and servicing costs for these tested vehicles as they get older and this data comes in. That’s not easy, I know. The only place I’ve found so far for this is Honest John but you do have to dig to find it. For instance, I hold onto my vehicles for a long time and do as much research as I can before purchase. I bought a 3 year old Fiat Stilo Dynamic 1.9 litre 3 door for a very reasonable price and it still looks and drives great. It had a recall early in its like for breaking front coil springs and the recall fix was to redesign the spring seats so the spring is contained in the event of a failure. The fix was so good that you don’t always know if/when a spring does break. The car has gone through four coils in its 16 year life with around 80k on the clock. Otherwise, it’s been very reliable and achieves a true average mpg of 52. Although I don’t want to sell my gut feeling is that I should start thinking about changing (hence watching your videos) and am thinking about a crossover or SUV. Apologies for rambling on a bit. Keep up the great work, I enjoy your no-nonsense reviews very much. PS I also live in MK and enjoy trying to guess where you are at various points in your reviews!

Hi Eric, thank you for your comment. The Kamiq is a huge step up from previous Skoda’s. The good news for Skoda’s is that from 2015 new Skoda’s have an online service history. So as long as the car is serviced at a main dealership the work carried out will be on record. It’s only when repair work is carried out elsewhere that you have to rely on paperwork.

Hi David, Great review. I test drove the Kamiq 1.5tsi DSG today and what a lovely motor. Very refined, classy interior, very comfy seats. I've always had VW's, but this was my first Skoda experience. I am so impressed, doesn't feel at all like a poor man's VW. In some ways it's better, high quality trim and great prices. Think I'm becoming a convert!

Hi Paul, thank you for your comment. As someone who has a soft spot for Skoda's it's great to see people fall for Skodas charms. I was surprised that the cabin actually felt more premium than the T-Cross (but without the flair). I know you'll make the right choice.

@AutoBears
@AutoBears 4 года назад
Hi there Shane. Thank you for the comment. They both compare quite similarly but would say the Karoq just edges it as it is the more “substantial” vehicle. The Karoq I had was the Sportline so came with larger alloys which did unsettle the ride compared to other trims.

Hi. Like you, I'm a 'Skoda freak'! I've driven and loved my Fabias for going on 10 years (I think!). Now I need something big enough to take a mobilty scooter and hoist for it. I doubt a Fabia will do it now ... Have you got any suggestions, or hints for me please? Loved the review btw! God bless.
@AutoBears
@AutoBears 3 года назад
Hi Christine. Sorry about the delay in responding. Is it a Fabia estate you have or hatchback? I'd recommend looking at the all-new Fabia which comes out later this year to see if a hoist can be fixed to it. I'd also recumbent the new Honda Jazz. The magic seats are great for storing large bulky items and the boot is a decent size. Hope this has been helpful.

In the old days you bought an old car for cash when you passed your test. I still think that way now. If your car is on finance, or the next one is going to be, and guessing PCP it just means you cant really afford the car. Debt is debt however you look at it. Nobody ever owns a PCP car because they cant afford the balloon payment at the end, so always trade in before then for yet another finance deal with pointless and expensive monthly payments, its like renting a car. Dont waste your money. Its never ending.

Another good review. But - I will take issue with you over your headlight comment. And it is only my opinion you understand. LED headlights should always be selected if affordable. Surely it is always safer to drive when you can see further? - Plus of course LED lights in theory last for the lifetime of the car, therefore you do not have the hassle of replacing an incandescent bulb, which can be a nightmare in a modern car.
@dorian9350
@dorian9350 4 года назад
Actually for kamiq standard high and low beam are LED only the front blinkers are bulbs. The upgrade ones come with dynamic led blinkers and cornering lights. I tested both and standard ones have a longer throw and upgrade ones have a bit wider but shorther beam. Not worth upgrade in my opinion. On Scala only low beam is led and high is h7 bulb so upgrade is worth it.

Can't believe the ford Puma beat this for the car of the year. First of all the puma already had a recall back in January and February for faulty airbags. Secondly the kamiq is much more prestigious and much more spacious especially for rear passengers.
@AutoBears
@AutoBears 4 года назад
Thank you very much for the comment. Having not driven the Puma yet I cannot give you my verdict on it. Yes, the Kamiq is an incredibly spacious car for rear passengers. It is a shame the boot isn't a bit bigger in its class but it is versatile.
