Skoda imports the Kodiaq in small batches in the form of complete knock-down kits (CKD) that are locally assembled. It rivals the Jeep Meridian and MG Gloster. 

New Skoda Kodiaq prices 

The new Kodiaq has revised pricing for all three variants, Style, Sportline and Lauren and Klement. 

All prices are ex-showroom pan-India

Prices are up by a uniform Rs 1.5 lakh across variants. Skoda has set the booking amount at Rs 50,000, but you can only order the SUV at an authorised dealership, not online. There’s no word on the size of the first 2023 batch, but expect it to be limited to a few hundred SUVs. 

Which features and engines are offered on the Kodiaq? 

For the extra money, the Kodiaq doesn’t get any new features or equipment. It’s still a commodious, feature-packed 7-seater SUV with creature comforts such as a panoramic sunroof, three-zone climate control, 12-speaker Canton sound system and heated and ventilated front seats. 

Its safety package includes features such as 9 airbags, ESC, a 360-degree camera and Park Assist System.
