Skoda Kodiaq: European refinement for city streets, robust performance on the open road

This European SUV offers an enjoyable drive and extensive features but lacks advanced driver-assistance systems and comes with a high price tag.

Judges from the Car Awards provided a concise assessment of the Skoda Kodiaq, highlighting its strengths and areas needing improvement.

Key highlights of the Skoda Kodiaq include:

- Its overall design embodies a distinct European style.

- The interior is appealing and modern, featuring a simple yet fully equipped European aesthetic.

- The driver's seat offers a comfortable experience.

- The vehicle delivers an engaging drive, particularly enhanced in sport mode.

- Both the suspension system and steering wheel provide responsive handling.

- The car is well-equipped with numerous convenience features.

Areas identified for improvement are:

- The vehicle's exterior design is average and lacks distinctiveness compared to other models in its segment.

- Its overall utility may not suit the majority of users.

- Feature adjustments are not user-friendly.

- It lacks advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS).

- The price remains high for Vietnamese consumers.
