The SUV bar has been raised! Skoda Kodiaq 2024 review 

I owned a Kodiaq for four years and it was excellent in every way but this revamp has really taken it to another level. I like every single one of the improvements and really like the rear side window treatment!

I have ordered mine yesterday - exact finishes from the video + panoramic roof 😊

Hi Tish - most high-end leather for cars (Aston, Jaguar, Range Rover etc..) is actually produced sustainably in Scotland. At Bridge of Weir leather. It is produced from hides from animals that have been slaughtered for food consumption. If these hides were not made into leather, they would take decades to degrade in landfill. Animals are not bred and slaughtered to be made into leather.

A great quick view of the new Kodiaq Tish. I really like the outgoing model but this new one makes the old one look quite dated. The changes are more revolutionary than evolutionary and I think it looks all the better for it, less boxy on the outside but still functional on the inside. It's worth noting that this model, like other manufacturers is the top of the range for a show model. I have to take my hat off to Skoda for keeping some of the physical knobs and buttons and not blindly following some other members of the VW group with just a touch screen. This new design could also give us an idea of what the next generation Karoq will look like in a year or so time. Many thanks for sharing.

Great review Tish. I like your new look also. Keep up the good work.

I do like that interior and the boot space is impressive. My only concern is the sheer size of the vehicle, the hassle of needing a parking spot with nobody too close etc.

There will be a Kodiaq vRS coming later on with a 2.0-litre engine with 272PS. As a reminder, the previous Kodiaq vRS petrol has 245PS.

Great review Tish. Skoda are so good at squeezing extra room in a vehicle and it has a classier interior than the outgoing version.

It’s lovely but your are certainly paying for it, these cars are so overpriced the majority of people can’t afford them especially ones with family’s. This is why I think the Dacia bigster will take a lot of sales from this especially if it starts around low £20k mark yes the interior is definitely not the same quality and likely not as fast but if it undercuts this by £15,000-£20,000 it’s worth a look

I have owned a Skoda Superb know have just ordered the new Kodiaq it looks fantastic can't fault the finish of the cars.

I love all the new Skoda models. Great review!

Skoda have come lightyears from the days of the jokes they were in the 70's. I can picture the new Kodiaq in black which would look awesome. The interior is beautiful. Again who would have thought in the 70's you would be saying about a Skoda! One thing that wasn't featured and was wondering if it still had it was the pop out tow hitch? What a great idea that is if you tow regularly. Another great review Tish.

Enjoyed the video. I recently viewed all the Skoda range at the dealers, as I’m looking to renew my car soon. As a former yellow patrol of 28 years, can I say I hardly ever went to a new Skoda breakdown. The styles and quality of build in the new range are very good indeed. I have been to see several other well known brands and found Skoda well above a lot of them. To think back 15/20 years ago they were tin boxes filled with plastic. Wow, wow Skoda how they have improved. Do we now rank them among the prestige brands 🤔👌

Skoda have pulled off a nice refresh, I’d like to see the exterior in person but there’s no major alarm bells going off, the interior though certainly looks very nice.

The multi function dials are a sensationally good idea.

this one is top notch L&K line, extra pricey, that's why the interior is so nice.

I’m 90% sure I want to ditch my Cupra Formentor and get this car, interior looks amazing

Hi, great review! Covered everything that needed to be covered without using any terms a common person won't understand! What are your thoughts about the colour - since the one they are showing in brochures is more yellow compared to a bronze- green-gold seen here.

I like this interior. Really good Skoda have kept the well designed manual climate controles. Skoda, and VW as well should do the same on all of their EV´s

Will the new Kodiaq be offered in Laurin & Klement trim level?

I have a 2020 edition and will be trading it in for this new model

Looking forward to your UK road test of the slammed version. I.e Superb. Also others seem to have had real problems with Skoda and Apple CarPlay freezing and not reconnecting. Please keep an eye out. Thanks

What a massive but beautiful car. But why oh why are they building diesel cars? Despite this I just love how Skoda improve everything on the equivalent VW cars. Great review as usual

I love the Range Roverish rear end, classic and elegant design. It would be great if more and more cars are like that.

Always great reviews. Thanks, Tish.

A nice and solid electric car. And then I'm also a bit in love with Tish. 😊

Waiting to see what the infotainment options are like. I had one of the first kodiaq and have switched around since 2017,and the new model looks interesting. Hopefully the old columbus system has been fully replaced.

Just like the car, this review was logical, practical and very enjoyable

11:10 Really 😂 nice 👍 SUV, both interior and exterior. Especially love 💕 the seats,sporty and looks quite comfortable, dashboard is a bit simplistic, but attractive enough, very spacious and roomy. This is a good 👍 buy. Really love 💕😘 it.

front seat has memory function and ventilated seats ??

Very nice Review, Thanks

We were also very interested in the new Kodiaq. If I understood correctly, there is all-wheel drive OR plug-in hybrid - unfortunately.

Thanks Trish. Great skirt.

I think the 2.0L engine doesn't have mild hybrid technology

I enjoyed watching the Video. Looking nice ❤ as always 😊

great quick review of the new model (interior is great), but they need to get rid of gloss black plastic entirely, exterior version will scratch on first drive/wash! interior versions just scratch easy, come on use some thing better inside, like a matt wood that Mazda use. welcome proper interior controls in VAG cars, after their dumb touch button ideas.

Do you know when will the new Skoda karoq revealed?...

My Xmas wish is a HUG from Tish!❤😉😏

Does it come with acoustic side windows?

I enjoy looking at the pretty lady and listening to the native speaker.

idk why, but i hate that rounded corner of the headlight SOOOOOO much... sticks out from the whole design and every Skoda out there in general. Why the rounded headlight when everything around it so damn sharp, mean and angular

The SUV bar has been raised with THIS? That is a bold statement, madam😂 but right off the bat: the presence! From exterior to interior, it kinda gives off a "love at first sight" kinda vibe, huh? She is stunning!! An impressive piece of machinery from Czech Republic. But it's got some serious competition in its class: VW, Volvo, Toyota, Mercedes (especially with their own interior lighting) and of course Jeep. Truly an exciting time to be an SUV fan. So many choices, but does Skoda stand above them all? Great review, Tish. Thumbs up!

New subscriber, thanks. Getting one of these this year, great looking car. (Run your scripts through Grammarly)

Skoda has actually taken a BMW kidney look and split head lights, and cleaned it up :-)

I guess, you either like/dislike Skoda. Personally, not for me, though I'm sure as the previous generation of Kodaiq, it will have a small segment of the SUV market with its entry price point. Great review as always, thank-you.

7:15 pressing a climate button :"This is very technical." Oh yes indeed it is. Perhaps Škoda should think about voice control for certain functions.

That is so nice It's so dangerous watching your new reviews i always want a new car

Interesting colour that's all I have

Love Skoda - drive one; but it would be really nice if those who do a review could learn how to pronounce the name of the brand.

Super good review! 👍😊

So far, this is the best advertising for Hyundai SANTA FE 2024! 😂

Perhaps someone could explain to me who needs and who uses such big cars. They are more expensive to buy, operate and maintain, more difficult to park and impractical for daily commute. I can understand that a bigger car is useful for a family trip but families don’t go on trips on a weekly basis and a common family sedan may be as practical. So who needs and buys such big cars?

Sweet! cant wait to order one!

It looks massive. But I do love the loafers lol x

Afternoon Tish

VAG still does not understand full HEV is the way to go. PHEV is heavy and unpractical. MHEV just doesn’t add anything to a regular ICE.

200ps for the PHEV seems woefully underpowered

Skoda cars are starting to outdo the main VW cars now... Also people seem to like skodas more than VW when on the road.....I'd definitely buy a skoda over the VW badged cars etc

Editing on this video 🤩

what is a skodiaq on timeline 3:24

Nice car!

...and no physical buttons for basic functionality again, changing where the fan blows during a long drive will make you crash into a wall.

I again wonder why make such a big family car and then have what looks like a tiny middle seat, which you do fail to talk about again. How does a huge car like this raise the bar when it really only seats 4 people in comfort?

Best all round suv is volvo xc60 T8..

You don't need to make leather and its bio degradable 👍

It’s weird how the differentiation between Skoda, VW and Audi diminishes with each generation. Its almost as if it were one giant company sharing platforms and technology… um hang on a minute!

Some 10 yrs ago this presentation might create some interest, but new old Skoda Kodiaq has nothing much to impress. Simple Joseph Kaban old cosmetics with degrading quality of power train and overall finishes. Price is also a step back factor comparing to competition. I owned a brand new Superb for more than a decade and things were OK with some issues (full suspension replaced in 2000 km / excessive oil consumption / ..) discussed with top decision makers from Skoda, but not much solved. When you are constantly ignoring Skoda owners might not expect them to come back.

The crossover bar, maybe.

Sometimes its not too big for UK roads? :DX

I always think VW group cars are better build quality than the VW cars themselves. Nice car but again too big for our small roads and car parking spaces.

the lady is magnificent

Momental Mazda cx60

Inside of the Kodiak looks better than a Mercedes. I am not joking

'tooodaaaiy'😵‍💫

Is the kodiaq the best car because it comes from the volkswagen group or because it really is that good? Personally, I think that German cars are clearly overrated.

Cheers love

Yeah and price has been raised, skoda is insane thinking it can ask 45k for this

All new Kodiaq 明年第三季才會引進台灣我想買。

To say I hate SUV’s is an understatement , so the silver coloured C pillar doesn’t bother me ! What’s the best looking sheep in the field.

When you review a 7 seater and then completely ignore the last row!

Great there is a non dead animal skin leather option

I'm a little Tea Pot with a pretty face, please don't call me out by name cuz I sell out late.

900 litres boot space?!?! Are they thinking you move house everyday

Skoda is pronounced as Shkoda. Not S, but SH. Better to know if you specialize in cars.

it seems to be underpowered just to have as little consumption as possible.

Skoda with last 2 gen are better than vw

car manufacturers already many years do not used chrome, they used chrome look plastic

looksok

👍

Look👍

Didnt like a story teller without any real demo

Model Notre bone monar fanzoi. 😅

Volkswagen the best car manufacturers in the world,,,they doesn't compromise any products lineup on clever performance drive and safety side so &so build quality top knoche...

there ARE pros and cons.......

why is skoda copying other car manufacturers? super = BMW 5, and now the Kodiaq has lights like a Volvo. maybe it would like to change the designers

Stop all this sustainable and eco nonsense. Whilst celebrities fly everywhere, drive 5L cars and have yachts ; there is no issue or such a problem as climate crisis. Give up on the stupid messaging.

Stopped watching at the CO2 nonsense...🙄🙄🙄

Never liked Skoda myself, always so bland looking and the addon options are so expensive.. they would make BMW blush.

I get enough people talking VEGAN crap about what I eat,,,I DON'T WANT THEM TELLING ME WHAT FKING CAR COVERS I HAVE IN MY VEHICLE

Skodiaq? A slip of the tongue or on purpose?
