Skoda Karoq 2.0 TSI [190] Sport Line 4x4 5dr DSG Review

Section: Version review
The model
Read full reviewThe Skoda Karoq is a top-drawer family SUV with clever seating options, a big boot and plenty of space inside for passengers. It’s also a pleasure to drive, thanks to its comfortable ride (as long as you avoid the 19in alloy wheels) and great visibility – and it has a well made interior. If you’re after something sportier then have a look at the Seat Ateca, but the Karoq is the best all-round family SUV in its price bracket.

See full equipmentYou get 19in wheels, sportier-loooking front and rear bumpers, sports seats, metallic paint, an electric tailgate and a panoramic roof. It’s too expensive to recommend unless you’re hopelessly in love with the sportier looks.
The engine
See full engine specsThe 1.5 TSI 150 petrol is such a great fit for the Karoq that there’s no real need to pay the extra for this 2.0-litre petrol. Yes, it’s quicker, but it also uses more fuel. Only available with four-wheel drive and an automatic gearbox.
