Škoda introduces the sporty Karoq SportLine

19” ‘Vega’ alloy wheels, redesigned bumpers, rear privacy glass and a black finish for most of the exterior components give the Karoq SportLine a purposeful appearance.

Inside, this new trim grade gains air-permeable ‘Thermoflux’ black upholstery, front sports seats, stainless steel pedals, LED ambient lighting and a black headlining.
