Škoda launches the Kodiaq Scout

Standard-fit all-wheel drive should mean the Kodiaq Scout’s all-terrain ability lives up to its more rugged look.

This new variant also comes with the Off-Road Assist package, plus ground clearance is a fairly decent 194 mm (7.6”). Other indicators of prowess over rough ground are the approach, ramp break-over and departure angles, which Škoda says are 22.0°, 19.7° and 23.1° respectively.

Front and rear under-body protection, silver-colour door mirror caps, rear privacy glass and a set of 19” alloy wheels identify the Scout. Inside, the specification includes Alcantara upholstery and an eight-speaker audio system.
