What's the best family car on sale today? Well the new Skoda Karoq might have a strong claim to that title, with loads of space, clever touches (including an umbrella and a bin) and cheap running costs. Rory hops aboard to take a closer look in our latest video review.
Here are 10 ways the Skoda Karoq stands out as a family car:
1. Spacious interiors.
The Skoda Karoq offers ample space in the front and back seats, making it comfortable for families of different sizes. 2. Versatile seating. The VarioFlex seats provide flexibility, allowing you to adjust and fold them to cater to different passenger and cargo needs. Need another car seat in, or want to fit bookcases across the back seats? No problem. 3. Generous boot space. A sizeable 588-liter boot accommodates family luggage, groceries, and even larger items without much faff – making it ideal for the average family weekend. 4. Family-friendly features. Skoda have made plenty of additions, like the built-in trash bin and umbrella storage, with families front of mind. It’s little touches like these that can make your car a calmer place, even on longer journeys. 5. Advanced safety. Equipped with modern safety features like airbags, adaptive cruise control, lane assist, and emergency braking, the Karoq prioritizes family protection. 6. Comfortable ride. The Karoq’s well-designed suspension system absorbs bumps, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride for all passengers, especially kids. 7. User-friendly technology. The intuitive infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay, and digital driver display simplify entertainment and navigation during family trips. 8. Air quality maintained. The Karoq’s innovative Air Care system maintains air quality in the cabin, which is a gift for family members with allergies like hayfever. 9. Affordable running costs. The efficient 1.5L petrol engine provides decent mileage, helping families save on fuel expenses during everyday commutes and longer journeys. 10. Value for money. Beyond the fuel efficiency, a combination of practicality, comfort, safety features and affordability means the Skoda Karoq offers good value for a family car.
