Review
The Skoda Karoq is a top-drawer family SUV with a flexible seating, a big boot and plenty of space inside for passengers. It’s also a pleasure to drive, thanks to its comfortable ride, great visibility and well made interior. If you’re after something sportier then have a look at the Seat Ateca, but the Karoq is the better all rounder.
get the best priceTrim: SE Drive
SE Drive adds extras including a rear view camera, front and rear parking sensors, sat-nav, and LED interior lighting. It’s designed for company car drivers and you may struggle to get a Skoda-backed PCP finance deal.
Engine: 2.0 TDI
This 2.0-litre diesel combines strong performance with decent economy, especially if you avoid four-wheel drive. Just remember it’s a fair bit more expensive than our favourite 1.5-litre petrol engine, so you’ll have to do plenty of miles to recoup the cost. Available as a manual or automatic.
