New Skoda Kodiaq Deliveries Begin in India; Prices Start at Rs 46.89 Lakh

Skoda Auto has commenced deliveries of the second-generation Kodiaq in India, which is offered in two well-equipped variants — Sportline and Selection L&K — priced at Rs 46.89 lakh and Rs 48.69 lakh (ex-showroom), respectively. The SUV is now offered for test drives across more than 280 Skoda dealerships in the country. It is available in a wide palette of seven metallic colour options (Moon White, Race Blue, Bronx Gold, Velvet Red, Magic Black, Steel Grey, and Graphite Grey), and is packed with several notable features like a large 13-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 10.25-inch fully digital instrument cluster, and a head-up display.

Commenting on the occasion, Ashish Gupta, Brand Director, Skoda Auto India, said, ‘The all-new Kodiaq is the perfect embodiment of precision engineering combined with unparalleled luxury, seven-seat versatility, and 4x4 abilities. The response since it unveil has been extremely encouraging, and we're pleased to begin customer deliveries across the country starting today. Having recently taken on the role of Brand Director for Skoda Auto India, this new-gen Kodiaq marks an important milestone for me and the team, as we shape the next phase of our growth journey in India.’

Skoda Kodiaq: Engine

Under the hood, the facelifted Skoda Kodiaq receives a notable performance boost. The familiar 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine has been refined to deliver 201bhp — an increase from the previous 187bhp — while retaining its 320Nm of peak torque.

The engine continues to be paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, along with an all-wheel-drive system.

Skoda Kodiaq: Exterior and Interior

The second-generation Kodiaq sports Skoda’s new ‘Modern Solid’ design language, which brings a cleaner, more sophisticated look to the SUV. The sculpted bodywork features crisp character lines and a distinctive front fascia, highlighted by a sleek pseudo-split headlamp setup and an advanced full-LED lighting system. At the rear, a continuous LED light bar stretches across the tailgate. The two trims cater to different tastes—the Sportline brings a dynamic, athletic vibe with blacked-out details and subtle aggression, whereas the Selection L&K focuses on elegance with refined chrome accents and a more polished finish. The SUV sits on 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels.

The Kodiaq's new interior features a modern, decluttered design focused on luxury and function. The Laurin & Klement trim has a black and tan interior, while the Sportline is all black. The gear shifter is now behind the steering wheel, freeing up the centre console.
