_____________________________________________________

If you're in the market for a 7-seater SUV that effortlessly blends practicality, power, and premium touches, the 2023 Škoda KODIAQ vRS 2.0 TSI 245 should be high on your list. Here's a look at the top 5 features that make this performance-tuned SUV stand out in a crowded segment.

1. 245PS of Turbocharged Power
At the heart of the vRS is a punchy 2.0-litre TSI engine producing 245PS, paired with a slick 7-speed DSG gearbox. It’s the same engine you’ll find in performance models across the VW Group. With 4x4 capability, it delivers thrilling acceleration and grip, whether you're overtaking on the motorway or navigating a muddy track.

2. Seven-Seat Versatility
Despite its sporty credentials, the KODIAQ vRS is built for families. With three rows of seats, it comfortably accommodates up to seven passengers. Fold the rear seats flat and you get a cavernous boot—perfect for weekend getaways or IKEA runs.

3. Premium Design and vRS Styling
This isn’t your average family hauler. The vRS trim adds 20" Sagitarius alloys, black exterior detailing, full LED Matrix headlights, and a distinctive grille. Inside, Alcantara sports seats with red stitching and carbon-effect trim elevate the cabin experience.

4. Advanced Tech & Digital Cockpit
A 10.25” Virtual Cockpit and 9.2” touchscreen infotainment system come as standard, with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, navigation, and a premium sound system. It’s tech-savvy, intuitive, and designed to keep you connected.

5. Safety First, Always
With adaptive cruise control, lane assist, blind spot detection, and a 5-star Euro NCAP rating, the KODIAQ vRS doesn’t just go fast—it keeps your whole family safe.

This is the rare SUV that satisfies both head and heart. Bold, capable, and loaded with features, the KODIAQ vRS is Škoda’s sportiest family car yet.
