Deliveries of New Skoda Kodiaq 4×4 Luxury SUV Commence

The fully-imported 3-row luxury SUV aims to offer tons of new-age amenities to emerge as a relatively budget-friendly alternative to the German SUVs

The deliveries of the new 2nd-generation Skoda Kodiaq 4×4 are underway. The CBU SUV bears a price tag of a whopping Rs 46.89 lakh, ex-showroom. This is due to the fact that it is a full import. In essence, it represents the best that Skoda has to offer in terms of European technology and luxury. This launch also commemorates Skoda’s 25 years in India and 130 years globally. Hence, the Czech car marque wants to reiterate its image as a premium carmaker. The new Kodiaq is available in two trims – Sportline and L&K.
