The wide, 3D-effect radiator grille gives the ŠKODA KODIAQ an impressive presence. With a gloss black finish, it brings out the sporty character of the SUV – which is the only model to come with the most powerful production diesel engine in the history of the Czech brand. The roof rails, window frames and wing mirrors also shimmer in a sporty black. The KODIAQ RS is ŠKODA’s first SUV to be available in a metallic Race Blue finish. Furthermore, the SUV is the first member of the RS family to bear the new, modern RS logo including a now-red ‘v’ for victory on its radiator grille and rear.
Redesigned front and rear bumpers
ŠKODA has developed new bumpers exclusively for the KODIAQ RS. At the front, the car’s self-assured appearance is emphasised by the crystalline-look, full-LED headlights – which also come as standard. A reflector extending across the entire width of the vehicle is integrated into the rear bumper – a distinguishing feature of all ŠKODA RS models. The exhaust system’s two striking tailpipes are clearly visible below the rear bumper.
First ŠKODA with 20-inch alloys as standard
The KODIAQ RS is the first ŠKODA to include 20-inch alloy wheels in its standard equipment. The anthracite-coloured Xtreme wheels really highlight the SUV’s dynamic driving potential. The braking system, including 17-inch red brake callipers, is also designed for extraordinary driving performance.
With the KODIAQ RS, ŠKODA is transferring the design language of its sporty models into the SUV segment for the first time, thereby creating a unique product identity. The dynamic, top-of-the-range model from the KODIAQ range will be introduced to the public at the 2018 Paris Motor Show in October.
