After driving the Skoda Kushaq for over six months now I can share a firsthand account of both its charms and challenges. The Kushaq with its 1.0 TSI engine is quite a performer delivering a robust 115hp which makes highway driving a breeze. Its handling is commendable and the ride quality is top notch thanks to its well tuned suspension. Fuel efficiency is decent coming around 17.88 km/l for the petrol variant which is economical for its class.The rear seating space might feel cramped for three adults and the boot space at 385 liters though decent for families.

Most impressive drive quality
The exterior design of Skoda Kushaq is really nice and attractive and get a very large boot space and the finishing is really nice. The features and design is really great and the build quality is very solid and the touch and feel of material is good but get hard plastic. The features and space is good and the glass area is very decent and the driving experience is nice with the great performance. The engine is punchy and with easy to drive and is really nice and comfortable and comes with engine start stop system.

Segment first features
I bought Kushaq Active 1.0 TSI MT which is a base model and comes with manual transmission system and it comes with the segment first features like electric adjustable seat for the driver and passangers. It comes with the good storage space and get a good boot space and in terms of safety it is fully occupied. The interior is very nice and it performs very great on the bad roads and get a refined engine that is also a good fuel efficient and the power it gives is very nice.

Skoda Kushaq Pros and Cons
Kushaq Positives Points: Classy SUV looks. Sensible features list and simple variant line-up. Powerful 1.5 TSI petrol engine and engaging driving dynamics. Good safety features.
Kushaq Negatives Points: Lacks some 'wow' features. Could have been wider for better space in the second row. No diesel option.
Zigwheels Expert's Conclusion : The Kushaq's sensible feature set, peppy engines and rewarding driving dynamics should appeal to enthusiasts shopping in this segment.

Super awesome
5.0
Had an amazing customer service while purchasing the car.Got the delivery 1 week before committed date.I had asked for a pdi and the dealer dint show any hesitation & called me over1for it and let me do a thorough examination.Post delivery service was also great attending to all my1questions.1.The car is a sheer drivers delight.The 1.5 mt engine is super awesome.The additional premium on the car is completely justified when you drive the1car.2.The fuel efficiency was 17-20 km/l on highway and 12-14 km/l on city rides.3.Steering adjustment ( tilt & telescopic) helped find the right driving position1& though on lighter side its still precise & helped instilled confidence.4.Clutch & gearbox are1very smooth.Stability is great with almost minimal body roll.5.Suspension was comfortable, However a bit on1the stiffer side.6.Boot space was the eyebrow raiser as i could pack in more bags than the creta ! 7.Storage1spaces are well done with the cooled gloves box capable of holding several 200 ml cans for a refreshing drink1on a hot driving day.8.Ventilated seats are a boon on the hot highway drives.9.Touch screen has high1resolution and very slick and easy to use.10.Comfortable seats and a lovely 2 spoke steering with leather finish is very stylish.Cons: 1.A/c controls being touch, Its tough to set it up without taking your eyes off the road.Also the cooling is1average & not excellent.2.A digital instrument cluster like the one in skoda kamiq would have done1wonders.3.Some bits of the car ( like roof lining ) etc have some cost cutting but those are mostly areas1where your eyes would look once a while.So not a deal breaker.Service & maintenance : expect 6000/- yearly1including labor.Recommend taking the 4 yrs maintenance package as its cheaper in the longer run.Verdict: if1you want a performance car with sensible features with good build & safety then buy this car without a1doubt.The only other car matching this performance in the underrated beast nissan kicks 1.3 turbo but it has some ergonomic issues & a dull interior.However, Kicks is the only car that goes head1on head with this car's performance.

I have been driving skoda
I have been driving skoda kushaq 1.5 since december 21, And it really feels pleasure to drive after having driven diesel cars for a decade and a half.It is definitely very silent especially in the highways, With a city average being around 11 and on highways at about 15.In terms of power i didn’t feel any lack of power, And although the suspension is a little on the stiffer side, But overall there is low body roll and better stability even on high speeds.Braking is again excellent and over all build quality is superb.I really liked their airsense feature that routinely lets fresh air to ensure a safe and comfortable ride.The ventillated seats are more like a gimmick.The infotainment system is quite standard though for a car that costs close to 18 lakhs, But it works efficiently.However considering that the vw had targeted indian market with this car, I wish they had given a bigger boot space, As at times i feel the space ain’t enough.A little bigger boot space would have gone a long way considering for an average customer it is going to be his family car.The other thing which i didn’t like was the seating for middle person in the back, Although i haven’t seen a proper 5 seater in this segment, But considering it’s a car that’s being designed for indian market; it might have been a great addition.
