Abu Dhabi: SKODA UAE introduces the new SKODA KODIAQ, a highly versatile addition to the mid-size SUV segment. With its impressive design, functionality, spacious interior, advanced connectivity and assistance systems, the KODIAQ makes a strong statement.

Its sleekly cut crystalline angles, extensive off-road capabilities and enhanced safety features, affirm that the KODIAQ is a definitive expression of precision. Comfort is another factor that has definitely not been overlooked. All of the controls are within reach of the driver’s fingertips and the car’s equipment presents convenience in every measure.

Its bold design encompasses several distinctive characteristics such as extra leg room, special features on the front and rear seats, ergonomically placed functions, excellent workmanship   and the largest boot in its class to fit all your precious cargo. The finely tuned chassis with optional Dynamic Chassis Control, combined with the solid steel body and completely soundproofed interior provide an ideal environment for passengers. You are always connected with the KODIAQ as its top of the line infotainment system consists of a 9.2” screen, 64 GB of storage, DVD and optional LTE module for high-speed internet access. The Wi-Fi hotspot allows passengers to browse the internet, stream music or view their emails while on the go.

The truly dynamic driving experience delivers powerful performance with low fuel consumption. Owners can choose from two different turbo engines, a 1.4 turbo engine with 150 horsepower or the 2.0 turbo engine with 180 horsepower. The 1.4 is the first ever 1.4 turbo engine 4x4, 7 seater. The KODIAQ is also the first model by SKODA to offer the new dual clutch transmission for engines with high power and torque.

The KODIAQ is undoubtedly the perfect companion to meet the demands of daily life. It incorporates several elements of SKODA’s “Simply Clever” philosophy which facilitates accessibility, efficiency and provides a user-friendly atmosphere whether you are driving the car or just along for the ride.

Mohammed Al Dhaheri, General Manager SKODA noted, “True to its name – the KODIAQ is up for any challenge. Derived from the Kodiak bear, which inhabits the Kodiak Archipelago in Alaska, this car is a testament to automotive strength both on and off-road. As the brand’s first large SUV, the agile KODIAQ is presenting a totally new experience for our customers, unlike anything else we have ever created. The striking design is modern and appealing while its technology enables you to always stay within reach and its spacious interior provides for added comfort at all times. Whether you are tackling the everyday drive, or unwinding with a long road trip – the KODIAQ is a safe and reliable choice.”

The new KODIAQ is now available to order in the UAE, with a starting price of 110,000 AED including VAT.
