Well it obviously won't come to india as ice will be banned in eu from '35 and skoda being skoda we can be sure they anyway won't launch a global update in india until gobal one get another facelift .😶
So ultimately if you wish to own a full size SUV for more than 5-7 years then the only real option for us Indians is the Toyota Fortuner. The Gloster, Kodiaq & Meridien though good cars have a big risk of becoming white elephants post 5 years of ownership. Wish the Endeavor & Pajero sport were supported & marketed better. Could have kept Toyota on their toes in India.
I think gagan is misleading , this is the most reliable car compared Tuscon or xuv 700 . I have driven this car in very rash or rough way i could and from that experience i can tell this is smoothestmgear box ever
I use Skoda Octavia Petrol LK split headlamps model, my 2nd car, earlier used Laura 2009 model. IMO they have degraded the next Octavia which obviously got discontinued due to a subdued demand. Same happened with Superb. I hope they dont do it with Kodiaq as well. SUV need to be Hybrid or Diesel in India. They missed the trick with Karoq by launching just 1000 units. Skoda really needs to up their strategy in India else it will soon move into VW zone, sadly.
Gagan bhaiya aapka iss type ka video kaafi acha laga aaur dusroo se bahut alag aaur acha laga. I guess majority of the audience aapko gaadi drive karte hue ek POV type acha lagta hai. I recommend ki aap aaisi content aage zaari raakhe.
Gaganbhaiya aap aur Yogi bhai ke informative video/discussion aache hote hai waisa ek video EV/Hybrid aur petrol cars ke related banao na ke issme se konsi car leni good choice hai.
Having owner 4 Skoda’s, only now I’m wise enough never to take this route no matter how amazing these cars are. I admire them from a distance. Kushaq/Slavia is not a bad deal since it’s manufactured in India. But for Kodiaq the parts are imported and everything costs a bomb
In case of CKD, does a company start assembling the car only after it receives a purchase order? Or the car is assembled anyways and stored away, shipped out once the a dealer submits a purchase order?
having owned a used Octavia, I can only recollect the pains that car gave me in terms of maintenance. The absolute pleasure, comfort, safety and luxury that it offered was soon outcasted by the pains. Every single part had to replaced in the car before it finished 10 years on the RC book. Buy new one ONLY if you have the mental strength to give it away for scrap rates OR have the heart and muscle to maintain it until EOL. Not sure about the Indian versions of Skoda which apart from the name and logo has no comparision to the REAL skodas.
i think the drawback is it is assembled in india.. and is based on 100% imported parts.. so if something gets damaged then it goes in the garage or service center for couple of months. Also parts are expensive because of import taxes.. Also you need to search for 95Octane petrol for this engine. Well skoda is only manufacturing slavia and kausaq in india with 100% parts made in india... the vw group set up a factory to manufacture 10 lakh cars in inda every year.. 2 years ago.. and expect 20% sales in india and 80% exports.. in 1.5 L version.. the engine is completely imported.. well even harrier or safari engines are imported.. so should not be big concern.. as hyundia and kia turbo engines are imported too.. so now the maintanence cost have gone down for slavia and kausaq but not for the imported ones like kodiaq or octavia..
Hello Gagan, Planning to buy a new Skoda Kodiaq L&K and the dealer is offering brand new Kodiaq for Rs 37.49 Lakh Ex Showroom. Should I buy it or wait for the next Gen Kodiaq which is likely to be launched later this year. What would the expected Price and Engine Options at which Skoda is likely to launch the New Kodiaq in India. I cannot exceed cost of Rs 40 Lakh Ex Showroom as I've already overstretched my budget. So is it worth waiting for the new Kodiaq if it is launched around Rs 40 Lakh or buy the 2023 Model which is being offered on discount at present. I must compliment you for the wonderful and informative videos u upload for us. Thank u
Buy this one fast. The new one is going to be insanely priced at around 55 Lacs. This is ultimate value luxury SUV. Almost 80% as good as Audi Q5. Only need to put new tyres as OEM MRF is poor quality.
it is cheaper version of Audi Q5 or Q7. More of Audi Q5 as the last 2 seats in Kodiaq are for small children. So people can save 35/60 lakhs more then for Audi Q5/Q7.
Gagan, do you think this is still a lot more value just from a price perspective compared to say a Fortuner. The bullet proof reliability of a Fortuner will cost approx 7-10 lacs more with lesser luxury features. Looking at that this does look attractive but yes their reputation of reliability is something which makes many people look elsewhere
Ultimately it boils down to what value for money(VOM) means to you. If VOM means better upto date features,driving experience, luxury feel then skoda/vw would be the preferred choice. But if VOM means bullet proof reliability, low maintainence, hassle free ownership experience, build to last feel then hands down it's the Toyota.
Air vents are very badly placed for 2nd row.. And are missing for the 3rd row.. Which makes misserable... But yes.. The ride for front seats are good..
if I see video at 1.5x or 2x your voice sounds electronic and not good 😅I do coz speed of saying in this video and that sound I have listened in ur previous videos ( harrier & Safari )also at 2x speed
Bcoz new version is still not on sale sir...ever after 6 months frm when u posted the comment😅...nd it will be launched mostly by the END OF THIS YEAR or NEW YEAR
Atleast isme jo features aate h vo kam krte h ache se unlike xuv700 😂 or fortuner ne features k nam p ghanta milta h or Tucson me features kam krte h but vo tank like safety ni jo baki 3 me milti h
Skoda and VW has the worst gear box problem and electrician sensor problem post 3/4 year of purchase. These cars are not easily repaired at local mechanics, and parts are super costly when you go to authorised repair shops. I have spent almost between 40k to 80k per year for maintenance and parts. Total cost for 3 years was more than 2.4 lakhs. Loved the build quality but worst maintenance. Not a good for india

The 2024 version of this car has already been launched in Europe, I believe any one considering this car should wait for the new version to come.
Well it obviously won't come to india as ice will be banned in eu from '35 and skoda being skoda we can be sure they anyway won't launch a global update in india until gobal one get another facelift .😶
@@impiku643nice joke.
Its not going to come untill 2025...coz in EU deliveries will start in mid of 24.....nd after 6 months only it will come to India so..2025
It also have a hybrid version
@@impiku643 they will bring it as CBU, if you have a chat with a good Škoda dealer they will too confirm it
I'm happy to invest in kodiaq even after 5 years now.
Its my dream car for now

I have this car, Love it. Is anyone using DSG gearboxes ever felt the need to replace the gearbox after 7-8 years ?
I've been using it since 6 years, no need yet. One of my friends has it for 7 years, he too hasn't faced any issues yet.
that is a relief to know@@akshayjuneja1987
its a perfect germen SUV which is fun to drive❤
a very subtle and beautiful way of presentation
Western expressway is india's one of the finest road to drive a car!

Right 👍🏻
Would be less of a headache comparing to the headache of Tata owners
@@musicmysteryshorts4405 at least tata cars are cheaper, you can buy one more for the price you pay for a similar international skoda.

Walkthrough commentary feels like captain speaking in airplane 😅😂😂😂
This review shifted me to buy fortuner instead of tiguan or kodiaq
Hi Gagan, any idea when is the new 2024 version expected in India

Of course old way was better.Some of us come with a lot of knowledge already from other reviews.So I just come here to watch drive and ride😅.
Its true. Kushaq & Slavia quality is joke in front of Kodiaq / Superb / Octavia CKDs.
Dear Gagan ji I want to know the schedule of the gear oil change of the dsg gear box of Skoda Octavia.
Will you please help me

When will the facelift Audi Q8 come to India ?
Gagan bhaiya videsh ghum rhe hai or old video dal rhe hai 😅
it is cheaper version of Audi Q5 or Q7. More of Audi Q5 as the last 2 seats in Kodiaq are for small children. So people can save 35/60 lakhs more then for Audi Q5/Q7.
one review of new compass also...
Gagan bhai, skoda superb fans ke liye thodi news bataado.
Kaash slavia aur kushaq ke saath bhi aaisi hi chaabi aati. Bohut khoobsoorat Hai iski chaabi
Sir Hyundai Tuscon Review ?????
White Kodiaq ka video bnya tha
Isme kya hai ?
Gagan.. even this video is hiding in the Playlist.
Gagan Ji, Do Jawab Boss Ko....
Haha Ys, It was in playlist since last month. :p
But gagan bhaiya fan of your work
should we use primium petrol in this...?
93 octane+
Sir under 10lakh me koi achi car ka naam batao na plzzz
Hybrid/ Diesel is important!
Gagan, do you think this is still a lot more value just from a price perspective compared to say a Fortuner. The bullet proof reliability of a Fortuner will cost approx 7-10 lacs more with lesser luxury features. Looking at that this does look attractive but yes their reputation of reliability is something which makes many people look elsewhere
That is all the reason why fortuner sells as much.
Ultimately it boils down to what value for money(VOM) means to you. If VOM means better upto date features,driving experience, luxury feel then skoda/vw would be the preferred choice. But if VOM means bullet proof reliability, low maintainence, hassle free ownership experience, build to last feel then hands down it's the Toyota.
2024 All Skoda cars are launched in Europe Czech also in India ❤❤❤
Air vents are very badly placed for 2nd row.. And are missing for the 3rd row.. Which makes misserable... But yes.. The ride for front seats are good..
