Skoda delivers an updated, sportier SUV

Starting at $68,390, the seven-seat Kodiak RS is a niche proposition – but no niche seems too small for the Australian market.

What is it? The Skoda Kodiaq RS is the hottest version of the largest Skoda SUV sold here, with a 2022 facelift bringing a petrol engine rather than a turbodiesel. As a mid-sized performance SUV with seven seats, it remains a rare beast.

What does it cost? $68,390, plus on-road costs and options. You shouldn’t need too many of the latter, though Moon White metallic paint (the only option fitted to our car) adds $770 and a hue known as Velvet Red is $1100.
