    The 2021 Skoda Kodiaq facelift has been introduced in the UK with a host of design and feature upgrades, along with new engine options and upgraded assistance systems. The Kodiaq facelift has been launched in the UK at a starting price of £27,650 (approx. Rs 28.57 lakh). The SUV is offered in five variants - SE, SE L, SportLine, L&K, and the vRS. Skoda UK will open bookings for the Kodiaq facelift in June, followed by the deliveries in July 2021. 

    The SE models will be available in both five-seat and seven-seat layout options, while the rest of the variants get a seven-seat layout as standard. All the variants get significant feature upgrades over its predecessor. 

    Exterior and Interior 

    The updated Kodiaq features a more upright six-sided radiator grille and a new, higher bonnet. The bumpers have been redesigned for sharpness, while the central air intake has been widened over the previous model. The new LED headlamps are now standard across the range and the full LED matrix lights are standard from the SE L variant onwards. Moreover, the SE and the SE L variants feature aluminium-effect trim on the front and rear apron. 

    The rear bumper features a distinctive diffuser while the tailgate features a new spoiler that extends further towards the back of the car. The vehicle gets sleek and chiselled shaped LED rear lights. As for the interior, the SUV gets the standard new two-spoke steering wheel, while the SportLine and the vRS variants get a sportier three-spoke steering wheel design.

    Engine

    The updated Skoda Kodiaq will be available in five engine options (three petrol and two diesel). Selected variants will offer DSG transmission and a four-wheel-drive option. The main highlight of the new engine range is the 238bhp 2.0-litre TSI engine which is offered in the vRS variant with all-wheel drive. The company claims that this engine is 60kg lighter than the 2.0-litre TDI it replaces, while the new DSG transmission is 5.2kg lighter than the previous gearbox.

    New assistance systems

    The updated models get the new adaptive cruise control function and a new emergency braking function that can detect both pedestrians and cyclists. As a part of the car’s proactive passenger protection, new radar sensors at the back can even prepare the vehicle and its occupants for the risk of a collision from behind.
