Alex takes a look at the new Skoda Kodiaq, which comes with the option of 7 seats, a huge plug-in hybrid battery, and knobs! Could it be the best family car of 2024?

The paints also have good names. This is the Gold-Bronze Metallic. I don't like it too much, among the similar ones, the Indian Kushaq's Honey Orange seems nicer, it is closer to the Cognac colors - the cognac label is only used for the interior furniture colors. But search for Skoda Arctic Silver and my favorite Skoda Mamba Green (for the Enyaq). It is toxically bright but I simply cannot resist looking at it when I see the mamba green on the street. The attention is like 100 other cars' combined. The new Superb comes in the very conservative Ice Tea Yellow. There are dozens of such nicely balanced names of the new colors.

Had one of the current ones (an SE L 7 seater) and it was a brillant family car.....currently got a enyaq 80...looking for a second car so will def be considering one of these...Seems with skoda these days one of the best cars and especially value for money...definitely better that their VW/Audi counter parts....

I watched a wonderful 30-minute video about (Skoda and other) cars in India. Very insightful and entertaining, about the cows on the streets, drivers only being responsible for the front, and so on. Note that in India, Skoda produces Kushaq (king in Sanskrit, with the Q taken from Eskimo's language to indicate an SUV) which is smaller than Kodiaq, of the size near the Kamiq in Europe. And then there is a Skoda Slavia, an Indian relative of the defunct Skoda Rapid (smaller sedan than Octavia, Octavia used to be Laura). Many traits are optimized for the Indian markets. So there has to be chrome everywhere. And one must save the money so there are some holes in the carpet in the trunk and similar things that I couldn't have overlooked. And the customer services is probably weaker than in Europe...

Hey Autotrader. It feels like you're beginning to blur the lines between objective car reviews and paid reviews. *Promo for Skoda at the beginning of this video that happens to review one of their cars- hint #1. *The fact they had a Skoda Kodiaq as a crew car for a full year - hint #2. *Absolutely no negative remarks in this video - hint #3 *No YT labels of Advertiser Supported content - hint #4. *The claim of 'Best Family Car of 2024' with absolutely zero mention of the competitors in said category - hint #5. Do better, Autotrader. Do not start taking advantage of your devoted audience like this. I love and trust this channel. Don't throw it away.

I'm not loving the new dashboard, I like the the digital dash display but I can't stand the raised infotainment screen, it blocks your view of the road and there is way to much going on. I want 1 button to do one task. It's easier and safer when driving. And I'd like the gearbox selector to go back in the transmission tunnel. The interior looks to much like the enyaq electric car and I can't stand it .bring back my buttons, not electric screens.

Hi, it is a matter of economics that viable cars sold in India should better be produced there. Škoda has the India 2.0 program and produces Slavia, a counterpart of the European Rapid, and then Kushaq (which means the king in Sanskrit), the counterpart of Kamiq which is a notch smaller than Kodiaq. About 95% of each car's components and the whole is made in India. It is needed. There are some special things that the Indian buyers need, like the chrome everywhere and a very noisy air-conditioning to prove that it works hard LOL, and then some reductions that are needed to lower the price, like ugly holes in the carpet in the trunk. I think that those things may only change for a mass-sold car when India becomes as rich as a European country or so.
