"The Skoda Kodiaq RS is the first Czech brand's SUV to bear the RS initials. The engine found in the Skoda Kodiaq RS produces 176 kW (240 PS), making it the most powerful production diesel in the history of Skoda. It offers a particularly emotive engine note thanks to Dynamic Sound Boost - which is making its debut in a Skoda. This perfectly complements the power of the Skoda Kodiaq RS, which holds the lap record for seven-seater SUVs on the Nürburgring's Nordschleife with a time of 9 minutes, 29.84 seconds. The initials RS now represent the perfect combination of a sporty driving experience and excellent suitability for daily use. The Skoda Kodiaq RS is now the brand's first ever SUV to bear these initials steeped in tradition. The extraordinarily dynamic capabilities - both on and off the road - and the powerful appearance of the Skoda Kodiaq RS complement the sporty lifestyle of a constantly growing target group in the SUV segment excellently. The Skoda Kodiaq RS is the sporty top-of-the-range model and the dynamic driving performance is worthy of this status. The Skoda Kodiaq RS can accelerate from a standing start to 100 km/h in just seven seconds and has a top speed of 220 km/h. The engine's tractive power at lower engine speeds is also impressive: maximum torque is already available between 1,750 and 2,500 rpm. Fuel consumption of just 6 l of diesel per 100 km illustrates the engine's high level of efficiency. CO2 emissions are 157 g/km. A variety of technical factors make this possible: the biturbo engine in theŠkoda Kodiaq RS features direct injection, a Stop-Start system and brake energy recovery, for example. It also has a sophisticated thermo-management system, which swiftly brings the engine up to operating temperature once the ignition is switched on."
SKODA sent racing driver Sabine Schmitz into the ‘Green Hell’ for a record-breaking lap in the new SKODA Kodiaq RS, even before the new top-of-the-range model is launched. In doing so, the Czech car manufacturer is giving an indication of the seven-seater SUV’s extraordinary performance. What’s more: a teaser video reveals how intently the extremely professional team prepared the high-performance SUV, which was covered in a sporty camouflage design, for its successful record attempt on the Nürburgring’s legendary Nordschleife. The clips whet viewers’ appetite for the new SKODA Kodiaq RS; the full video will be released on 14 June. The SKODA Kodiaq RS will make its official debut in October at the 2018 Paris Motor Show.
Optionally available with up to seven seats, the SUV offers generous space at the upper end of the compact SUV segment. Like the Karoq, the Kodiaq can also be ordered with all-wheel drive from the Ambition equipment line up, then with the option of the 2.0 TDI, delivering 110 kW (150 hp). In addition, the 2.0 TSI with 140 kW (190 hp) and the 2.0 TDI with 147 kW (200 hp) are available as standard with 4×4 drive for the Style trim level as well as for the Kodiaq L&K and Kodiaq Sportline. Likewise, the sporty top model Kodiaq RS always distributes the 180 kW (245 hp) from its 2.0 TSI to all four wheels. Kodiaq models equipped with all-wheel drive and a diesel engine have a towing capacity of 2,500 kilograms. As with the Karoq, the Trailer Manoeuvring Assistant is available as an option to support the driver in manoeuvring the trailer. 45,170 Kodiaqs were produced in 2022.

Presenter Alex Montyro will show you the highlights of the upgraded SUV.
