Our Skoda Kodiaq 4x4 Sportline 140TDI was, as tested, $59,690. It had the luxury pack ($3400), which includes lane-assist, blind-spot detection, front and rear heated seats, perforated-leather-appointed seat upholstery, surround-area view, three-zone air-conditioning, traffic-jam assist, emergency assist, rear traffic alert, and auto-dimming, folding side mirrors with memory function.
It also had the tech pack ($2600), which includes adaptive chassis control with driving mode selection, 10-speaker Canton sound system, automatic parking assist, manoeuvre braking assist, 'virtual pedal' (hands-free electric tailgate opening and closing), vehicle set-up via key, off-road mode, and wireless charging. And, as the icing on the cake, it also had metallic paint ($700).
This Kodiaq would cost $52,990 without all of the above options. New exterior features include 20-inch 'Vega' antracite alloy wheels and a 'Velvet Red' paint option.
