SKETCHES

The ŠKODA KAROQ features a wide range of driver assistance systems that are normally found in higher vehicle segments and, alongside comfort, put active safety above all else. The systems provide pedestrian protection and keep the compact SUV at a safe distance from the car in front.

The ŠKODA KAROQ offers state-of-the-art drive and chassis technology and presents itself as an all-round model with off-road qualities. A choice of five engine variants with a power output ranging from 85 kW (115 PS) to 140 kW (190 PS) is available.

DESIGN (Exterior + Interior)

The strikingly three-dimensional front section symbolises protection and strength with its contours. The front is characterised in particular by the geometrically shaped headlights with precise contours.

As a true ŠKODA, the ŠKODA KAROQ offers exceptional space, new driver-assistance systems, full LED headlights and – for the first time in a ŠKODA – a digital instrument panel.

The ŠKODA KAROQ is a completely new compact SUV from the long-standing Czech brand.

The new ŠKODA KAROQ measures 4,382 mm in length, is 1,841 mm wide, and 1,603 mm high.

The long wheelbase is easily visible from the side view and points to the generous interior. This view is characterised by short overhangs at the front and rear, the sloping roofline that is visually extended by a contour in the D-pillar, and the tapered rear.

A line runs from the headlights to the rear with the high degree of precision; it streamlines the body and gives it structure.

The angular wheel arches are framed by wide angular trims – a typical design feature for the ŠKODA SUV – and make the ŠKODA KAROQ appear even more powerful.

The ŠKODA KAROQ is a sports utility vehicle with character: The emotive and dynamic design with numerous crystalline elements characterises ŠKODA’s new SUV design language.

The width of the body is emphasised at the rear by the horizontal lines.

At the same time, the expressive and powerfully robust exterior clearly indicates its use as a compact SUV.

Engines´ capacities are 1.0, 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0 l, while their power output ranges from 85 kW (115 PS) to 140 kW (190 PS).

The ŠKODA KAROQ offers a comprehensive range of driver assistance systems. New comfort systems include Park Assist, Lane Assist and Traffic Jam Assist.

The compact ŠKODA KAROQ SUV is an all-rounder for the family, business, everyday life and leisure time.

The ŠKODA KAROQ has state-of-the-art technology under its bonnet. Five engines – two petrol and three diesel – are on offer.

Just like the ŠKODA KODIAQ, the compact five-door transfers the brand’s new design language into the SUV segment. Its clear-cut lines and three-dimensional surface design exude dynamism and emotiveness.

The side is characterised by short overhangs at the front and rear, the sloping roofline that is visually extended by a line in the D-pillar, and the tapered rear.

The large ŠKODA brand logo sits proudly at the end of the distinctive bonnet.

The radiator grille, which is framed by a chrome trim, features the trapezoid shape that is typical of ŠKODA.

As an option, the car can be equipped with full-LED headlights in a clear glass design from the Ambition trim level upwards.

The compact SUV is fitted with 16- or 17-inch wheels as standard. 17-, 18- and 19-inch alloy wheels are optional extras.

The flat, raked rear lights are divided into two: their outer section is embedded in the sidewall frames, whilst the inner section is in the tailgate.

The lights at the rear include tail lights, brake lights and number plate illumination with LED technology .The tail lights form the ŠKODA-typical ‘C’ shape.

The LED ambient lighting, available in conjunction with either the Ambition or Style trim level, creates atmospheric lighting in the ŠKODA KAROQ’s interior.

Indirect illumination of the centre console creates additional atmospheric lighting in the interior.

When opening a door the ŠKODA name is projected onto the floor.

The ŠKODA KAROQ’s interior has also been completely new.

The instrument panel, controls and seats exemplify the compact SUV’s advanced styling which combines elegant comfort with modern functionality.

The front seats provide excellent lateral support and, from the Ambition trim level upwards, they are also height-adjustable.

The kneeroom for rear seat passengers is 69 mm in the ŠKODA KAROQ.

The VarioFlex seats, an optional extra for the Ambition and Style trim levels, generate a superior level of versatility, allowing the three elements of the rear seats to be folded in a ratio of 40:20:40.
