Award-winning 7-seater SUV
KODIAQ
Extremely stylish, with class-leading luggage space this 7-seater SUV is really turning heads.
The ŠKODA Kodiaq is characterised by its perfect interplay of graceful lines, dynamic curves and robust appearance, making it instantly recognisable.
The practical ŠKODA Kodiaq is one of the very best seven-seat SUVs, as well as one of the most affordable.
From transporting the family and general chores to the long weekend DIY project, there’s a reason you need a large SUV. With three row, 7-Seat versatility and an all rear seats folded flat luggage capacity of 2,005 Litres, the ŠKODA Kodiaq gives you plenty of space to stretch your legs.
When you get in the front, the interior gives you a warm welcome and quite naturally arouses a sense of safety and robustness. The dashboard is dominated by four large vertical air inlets, a large central infotainment screen, and a bold decorative trim separating the upper and lower part of the dashboard.
The ŠKODA Kodiaq introduces a range of safety features and assists to the mid-size SUV section that tended to be the preserve of high-end cars. The maximum 5-star rating underline top safety level for the ŠKODA Kodiaq. Euro NCAP awarded an excellent rating of 92 percent for occupant protection of adult passengers and maximum points for the protection to pedestrians’ legs that the bumper offers. Euro NCAP particularly mentioned the good operation of the standard emergency brake system, which works well at low speeds – as is typical when driving in the city – and also prevents almost all collisions at motorway speeds.
You’ll get so used to the high-standard soundproofing and suspension comfort that you’ll never want to settle for anything less. A perfect overview is provided by the optional Digital Instrument Panel which can display on-board computer specifications in combination with other information such as navigation for example. You can choose from several specialized layouts, controlled via the View button on the multifunctional steering wheel. The exclusive air conditioning guarantees optimal interior temperature. The driver, front passenger and rear passengers can all control the temperature in their own zone, enabling the whole family to travel in comfort.
With its intelligent 4x4, the new ŠKODA’s SUV is equipped for every contingency. The Kodiaq is great at driving on unpaved roads and gravel. The four-wheel drive system with electronically controlled multi-plate clutch deals with the slightest change under the Kodiaq´s wheels in milliseconds.
When you drive off the asphalt, you don’t have to look for a place to park the car. With its generous ground clearance, intelligent 4x4 system, extremely rigid body and set of electronic assistants for off-road driving, the Kodiaq will take you that much further. The Off-Road button switches all assistance systems to a special off-road setting. Once on, the accelerator responds less sensitively and the Auto Hold feature helps the vehicle out in tricky situations. Hill Descent Assist uses sensitive braking to maintain a constant speed when descending steep slopes.
The ŠKODA Kodiaq brings a whole new dimension to the link between your mobile device and car.
ŠKODA Kodiaq's ‘SmartLink+’ system delivers a seamless connection between the car and your chosen smartphone, using Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Mirrorlink™ technologies.
Through a quick and intuitive connection, you can use the Kodiaq’s hi-resolution central touchscreen as an extension of your own phone - it will charge it too.
"The SportLine is a cool-looking thing and with Kodiaq's credibility off the scale in the Kiwi market, it'll be a hard one for many buyers to resist."
Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC) with Driving Mode Select allows you to customise the vehicle’s handling to your personal preferences. By pressing a single button, you transform the Kodiaq SportLine from a comfortable carriage to a master of sporty lanes.
From the high-gloss black grille and aerodynamic accents of the exterior to the multifunctional D-shaped wheel and ‘alu’ aluminium foot pedals in the cabin, the Kodiaq SportLine shows off its sporty appeal. The Alcantara® bucket seats offer firm and cocooning support for those enthusiastic drives yet are comfortably embracing when on long runs out of town.
Alcantara®, which stands out with its distinctiveness and excels with its durability, is also incorporated in the door panelling. Stylish details are accompanied with stylish technologies. The Canton Sound System with ten speakers and total power output of 575 Watts comes as standard.
A Kodiak bear boasts an innate combination of power and speed – the sporty Kodiaq RS is no exception. Its confidence and performance whatever the situation will give you a sense of security while delivering an exciting driving experience.
ŠKODA’s first high-performance SUV brings its dynamic ambitions to the fore with plenty of black accents – its striking radiator grille, its roof rails, window frames and wing mirrors all come in high-gloss black.
New Zealand’s most award-winning 7 seat SUV has been re-worked top to bottom by ŠKODA’s RS engineers. With a powerful bi-turbo engine, launch control, unique suspension settings and the most powerful brake package in a ŠKODA, it’s truly an engaging drivers car.
The Kodiaq RS features the most powerful diesel engine in the ŠKODA range: the twin-turbocharged 2.0 TDI/176 kW with a maximum torque of 500 Nm. The advantages of a twin-turbo setup are the strong boost from the middle-speed range and the instantaneous accelerator response. And courtesy of the car’s Dynamic Sound Boost, you’ll enjoy an even earthier engine sound.
The car is fitted with progressive steering, which provides the Kodiaq RS with better handling and agility in curves. The progressive steering changes the ratio depending on how far the wheel is turned so that you don’t have to keep shuffling your hands round the steering wheel. This makes it easier to manoeuvre on twisty roads, in city traffic or when parking.
In order to complete the driving experience in a sports car, you need proper sports seats. The KODIAQ RS has plenty to be proud of here: two robust Alcantara seats with distinctive lateral support will hug you firmly. Contrasting red stitching and the RS logo match the rest of the interior. When you sit down, fine-quality materials will surround you from all sides. The Alcantara in the door panels is complemented by a red-stitched armrest and ambient lighting, offering a choice of 10 colours.
