Skoda Karoq: How Much Does It Cost and What Does Its Inside Look Like?

February 20, 2023 by Ian Leave a Comment

Skoda is more than glad to satisfy the sophisticated desire of Australians for upscale midsize SUVs. Since its introduction in Australia in 2018, the Skoda Karoq has sold 5,000 units. The upgraded model has received formerly optional equipment and a price increase to match. According to one Skoda executive, it reflects potential buyers’ desire for value rather than the lowest price.

How Much Does It Cost to Purchase a Skoda Karoq?

Locking a Skoda Karoq type in the garage costs $42,990. That’s also $3,000 more costly than the prior model, resulting in a big rise. The stronger SportLine will cost $49,990 driveaway, that’s $3,000 more than the previous model.

Every model has two option packs as standard equipment. Skoda Karoq owners can purchase the “Tech Pack,” with a better infotainment system with a 9.2-inch display, matrix LED headlamps, lighting, blind-spot assist, automated parking, and a surround-view camera. This pack costs $5,900.

The $10,900 “Premium Pack” includes leather-highlighted leather seats, fueled front seats with storage settings, heated chairs rear and front, steering-wheel paddles, headlamp washers, auto-folding side mirrors with auto-dimming, and heat-insulating windscreen.

It will be interesting to see how many clients bundle that box and increase the cost of their car by 25%.

Is the Skoda Karoq a Safe Vehicle?

As a sportier type, the Skoda Perth Karoq retains its five-star ANCAP rating from 2017. The car received 93% for human protection and social, 79% for child protection and social, 73% for vulnerable motorists and 58% for safety aid systems from the safety body.

Customers should be informed that the 2022 models improve several safety assist system features, like lane-assist, which was noticeably lacking in the previous car and lost points in the ANCAP rating.

In a collision, seven airbags are installed as a standard to protect the passengers.

What’s the inside of the Skoda Karoq Like?

Skoda must negotiate a tricky balance between the accessibility of European prices and the sophistication of their products. Put this another way; it has to have a fashionable appearance without infringing on the parent company, Volkswagen, which is in the Tiguan territory.

Consequently, the exterior has a sophisticated look, but the door trims and dashboard do not have the famous soft-touch plastics seen on other vehicles in the midsize SUV market segment.

The default infotainment display is 8.0 inches and has a good resolution. It is also very straightforward to use. The connection to the smartphone works normally, and the standard audio with eight speakers is good.

The rear seats of the Style model include a feature called “Varioflex,” which allows them to recline completely flat, be flung forwards, or be removed altogether. Because the SportLine’s all-wheel-drive system restricts the driveshaft tunnel’s manoeuvrability, it is only accessible on the base variant of the vehicle.

Seating space is acceptable both in the front and back, and the Skoda Karoq Style has a maximum baggage capacity of 588 litres. In comparison, the SportLine has a maximum luggage capacity of 522 litres with the rear seats pushed forwards.

Is the Skoda Karoq Efficient?

Skoda Perth estimates that the combined fuel consumption of the Karoq Style is 6.5 litres per 100 kilometres, while the fuel consumption of the Karoq SportLine is 6.6 litres per 100 kilometres. This requires acquiring 95 RON fuel in any of the two possible scenarios.

The style uses 7.8 litres of fuel for every 100 kilometres, whereas the SportLine consumes 8.3 litres of fuel for every 100 kilometres.

The fuel tank in the style trim is 50 litres, while the fuel tank in the SportLine trim is 55 litres. This gives the vehicle a range of around 600 kilometres when used normally (based on how hard and frequently you hi the accelerator).

What’s It Like to Drive a Skoda Karoq?

The Skoda Karoq is an excellent choice for the job it was designed for.

It is suitable for use as a well-balanced family runabout, which was the need. Because it is not intended to be a sports utility vehicle, the tires are not designed to function like liquorice strips, which cushion the first impact caused by road intersections and prompt the suspension to engage.

After that point, the responsiveness grows slowly, suggesting that the Skoda Karoq can easily handle regular bumps and lumps while travelling at average speeds.

If the speed is increased on a country road, it will be able to manage the majority of the potholes without causing the passengers any discomfort. Someone has to break the rules to comply with these standards. To reiterate, ensuring the happiness of one’s offspring is a more than appropriate trade-off.

When the driver applies an additional lock, the steering becomes heavier but remains light in the steering wheel’s centre. It is recommended that drivers consider getting the SportLine rather than the style that comes with the Premium Pack since the SportLine offers exceptional acceleration in all circumstances.

Conclusion

Skoda lost ground to Mazda in exterior and interior style, but despite having a larger body, the CX-5 can’t compete with the Karoq in terms of inside capacity.

The Skoda Karoq is a contender if the purchasing concept is centred on an economical, family-friendly car, but it’s worth comparing it against the Kia Sportage before committing.
