Skoda Kodiaq vRS Review & Road TeststeemCreated with Sketch.

in cars •  6 years ago 

Last week the Planet Auto team tested the new Skoda Kodiaq vRS.

We covered several hundred miles over a week carrying out our normal tasks from nipping to the shops to getting lost in the fog in the Lake District trying to find famous ginger bread.

The Kodiaq starts at just under £43,000 however the model we tested with options cost just over £48,000. As well as the sporty styling, generous equipment you get seven seats.

Under the bonnet is a twin turbo 2.0 TDI engine with a seven speed DSG gearbox, this can get the Kodiaq from 0-60mph in a brisk 7.0 seconds and will top out at 136mph. Despite the performance figures economy is still very respectable at 40mpg.

It must be said from the offset the Skoda Kodiaq is a very capable, very refined and enjoyable car to drive and to passenger.

During our test we take a look at the cars practicality, functionality, what it’s like to drive and then answer the important question.... Is this the right car for you?

You guys are always consistent... you deserve the support

Thank you @dante31, you’ve always seen value in our content.

hahah it really looks like a wolf in sheep's clothing @planetauto! I didn't know Skoda creates this kind of cars. Also never seen this one before. Thanks for the nice review and road test!

Thank you, it does have some tweaks but not what you expect, it’s very understated considering it’s performance.

You're welcome! Thanks for sharing this nice review!

The review is very interesting as the sport features of the Kodiaq vRS are attractive to most young people.
Thank you for this review of planet auto. Is there more choices of colour for the car?

Ben’s 42 and he loves the looks 😆, we’ve seen a black and a blue as well, thank you

I honestly don't know about this one. If I am going for an off road vehicle it wouldn't be a Skoda and don't know if it is worth the 48 000 Pounds. I know you guys were happy with it but I do worry about the resale value etc. Looking forward to the next review.
