Is there the same sitting space on the back seat of vw tiguan..?
Sir it helps me alot.. i booked it today.. thanks...🤞
Kya ye skoda ke sath collaboration hai?
Hi @motoroctane
Need your contact details
Planning to buy skoda Kushaq
So can You please help me out
I have been using skoda Rapid automatic from the past 6 years and as mentioned in the video, skoda really gives very good service packages which adds peace of mind. Really love the car it is at 99000+ km now and still feels like a brand new car.. really love the build quality of skoda and VW group.
I have heard lots of negative reviews about Skoda's after-sales service. Did you come across this or was "after sales" a deciding factor for you at all?
People say lots of bad things about their experience during regular maintenance/service with their dealership.
Also one more question. Since you have driven more 99k+ kms, do you think its a long lasting car? Is this reliable? As in, does it "feel" like it can last for more than a decade? I really don't like lots of proprietary software and expensive computers/ECU tech in car (unfortunately modern cars are full of ECUs), I prefer old-school tactile analog features that can be easily repaired/swapped locally or by myself if I'm so inclined, and also not a fan of replacing cars frequently, so it has to last for a really long time (even if there comes a time when Skoda exits India, but hopefully not)
I agree that you had a good experience with Skoda. Let me know if you come across any periodic maintenance till 99k (Like timing chain or belt replacement which is common in all cars after 1lac kms) if yes how much it was?? did you ever had any minor changes/crashes like bumper replacement(Front or rear) or headlights or side fender dents if yes what was the cost to replacement or repaint price in Showroom, please also specify this. I heard that if anyone encounters this for example it might go almost to 10% of your car price. Please try to check it with any one of your know colleagues/peers.
@@windowsxpp we own a skoda Rapid 2012 model....the car still runs like butter right now and is as good as a new one.
The fact is skoda repair costs can be expensive but it is the same case with the rivals
Skoda is a great option i would recommend it surely
Truee✨✨
Awesome review by a proud Skoda owner… being a Skoda owner for around 10years I can feel the same happiness. Even I have recommended few colleagues about Skoda and happy to see them now buying Kushaq and slavia 😊
Feeling like heavy investment in kushaq
What's your real opinion on kushaq nd creta nd seltos vs 2023 vehicles upcoming
unstable company they wrapped up from india till some new cars were launched recently.
Same here with VW Vento for 9 years
Go to School and get some knowledge what's happening in the world
@Tech cloud it's a VW brand. Don't need to worry about anything.
Kushaq is an emotion ,especially on long drives. 1400 kms one way already and in love with the drive dynamics of this beauty. The confidence I got ,I got from driving Kushaq.❤
Nice to know that ...can you tell me the engine model , variant and onroad price ?
It was awesome meeting you Rachit..You are a rockstar
Just adding to what is being said in the video,
1.0L is more than enough for a regular consumer, go for 1.5L if you have a touring use, i.e expected KM in first 4-5 years is >1.5L Km, because 1.5L will give you better aging but offcourse with a bit higher maintenance. Don't go for 1.5L just because of Power, as the platform on which Car is built and the steering, one rarely would be able to use the actual potential.
Its rare when Rachit bhai meets somebody taller🤣
That's why his name is Suchit....rhyming to Rachit 😂
😂😂👍
😂😂😂
😄 🤣
😂
These guys have really improved their after sales service, currently own a slavia and earlier had a vento and trust me vento’s maintenance was really expensive as compared to my slavia!! Really happy with the purchase!
Hi, can u pls tell which variant do you have? And how much is the on-road cost of Slavia.
wait for few yrs u will say the same for slavis. they have parts monopoly unlike toyota, hyundai maruti. u would only get repair in expensive service center. that's the trap.

Does it have affordable service packages like Kushaq ?
This can become a master piece if mileage is upgraded. Kushaq is so beautiful..!
I am also a Kushaq owner. I fully agree with this. Really an awesome compact SUV
Must go with this
Nice review. I wish to go ahead with this car. Added in my checklist 💫
I am a proud owner of Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo and just love to drive it. It's such a comfortable and a stable car.
overpriced. stable - lol...
@@techcloud2510 aapke budget main nahi hai toh overpriced kaise? Cheap cars like maruti, etc. are perfect for you
@@techcloud2510 don't know if you have driven this car or not. But it's one of most stable car in this segment.
Absolutely agree
Booked my MC Kushaq. Can’t wait to get my Beast.
Skoda has definitely upped the after sales service.. I own Rapid Monte Carlo for last 5+ years.. as I had 4 years maintenance package service cost for first 4 years was 0.. jo hidden charges at all.. even the 5 th service costed 9500 that is very reasonable for a diesel car
Hello Kushaq owner,
I have 2 questions related to servicing and maintenance since people were saying it's servicing is too costly:
1. After free servicing are over what is the the cost of servicing ?
2. If spare parts need replacement how much does it cost and what is the waiting period ?
I would be glad to receive your reply
What's with Monte carlo
@@pradyumn2453😂😂😂
I bought Kushaq 1.0L style automatuc model and driven around 1100km in one month. The ride quality of the car is awesome specially the high speed stability. If I drive at a speed of 100km/hr, i have a feeling of going at 60km/hr by comparing the ride quality of my existing ford freestyle. Seat comfort is awesome specially for back seat(My wife's observation). Mileage in highway is 16-18 and in bangalore city 10-11 kmpl. One thing they should have given the electronic parking brake as I have spend 21.5L. When gear shifts from D2 to D3 you get to know about it in city condition (some lag).
How's the after sale service in bnglr and maintenance
Which one do you suggest 1.5 or 1.0 plz let me know planning for it
The moment you will take test drive of this car, you will never like any other car. Proud owner of Kushaq 1.5 Monte Carlo.
Exactly I also took a test drive of 1 litre kushaq i found more punchy then my 1.5 litre ciaz
I using skoda Fabia diesel 3 calinder for last 12 years built quality mileage comfort every thing fabulous
After B6 norms we missed diesel engine
I have 1.5 ltr kushaq ....grip on road, silence in the cabin ,comfortable ride.....this car is just too good
XUV700, Harrier or ScorpioN would have been much better choice in terms of every aspect. but there are buyers like u.
@@techcloud2510 Mahindra? They need to use better quality parts.
@@techcloud2510 They are not from the same price segment.
Agree.. i bought a 1.5 ltr kushaq last week..
Nice editing !
Very helpful review. Thanks
Coming from a owner
CONS
1. All touch instrument cluster and climate control. A few buttons like Volume rotary would be appreciated. Climate control touch buttons are too sensitive and it can take a significant amount of time to get acquainted with them and even after that if driving alone, you'll have to carefully check if you are reaching the right button.
2. Less functionality on steering. Only way to rejecting a call is by picking it up and then disconnecting. And there are few non functional buttons as well.
Even after knowing the above, I would still go for Kushaq because it gives you what matters, the drive.
Actually you could disconnect phone call without picking it up, just scroll down the right side control of steering and reject the phone call.
Genuine Rachit n genuine owner n ownership review
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Sir, I recently persuaded one of my family member to go for XUV 700 instead of skoda/VW, because of consistent issues like EPC error, AC issues etc.
We appreciate a "NO Nonsense" car more than a performance oriented car. Although the XUV700 has it's own issues, but they are minor issues with the touchscreen only, and never any mechanical issue.
There have been instances where these Skoda cars are seen to break down completely in mid highways due to this EPC error thing. Look, we don't care whose fault it was, but mechanical issues are literally painful.
Correct
How is your exp with xuv700 now? Engine noise body roll and suspension?
EPC issues are fixed in 2022 models, literally no complaints on that front now. I drove mine for 1400 kms with AC and the mileage and performance both were good, so was the AC. It all depends on one’s driving habits too. If one expects to leave the sunroof open in Indian heat and turn up the AC expecting it to work wonders, won’t happen.
@@rajsharma-wh2xx Till now all good, there are minor glitches in the touchscreen and the Alexa sometimes causes embarassment. Body roll is there, but very controlled. It feels uneasy only if you take curves above 90 speed. Suspensions, till now are noise free, and excellent in comfort. They have frequency selective damping. So far, no mechanical problems. It's been only a three weeks till now, so no major flaws are visible as of now.
@@VK-yf2fn Still sir, the AC of skodas aren't that "bone chilling", right? The AC of XUV works very efficiently, ever with open sunroof, as I have heard from people.
Heck, people are taking sun bath with the XUV sunroof, with AC on blast the temperature is cool, and they could still fetch some vitamin D..
I would really like Skoda owners to tell here how is their after-sales experience? How expensive/cheap is the skoda maintenance? Would really like to know as I like Skoda cars a lot…the build quality says everything!
Their after sales has improved a lot and I have had good experience with them so far.
Take their 5 year maintenance package and you are all set for 5 years.
Parts have become very cheap after localisation.
I second with the reply
Proud owner of SKODA KUSHAQ 1.5 AT and really happy with decision 😊
Wow... Congratulations Vikram.. What was the on road price ? And how does the AT feel ?
I took test drive of Creta, Seltos, Nexon, XUV 300, WRV, Urban Cruiser, S Cross petrol, Verna Diesel, Honda City iVtec, Venue, Sonet, Kushaq and Taigun in Sept 2021. Short listed Skoda Rapid and Honda City4th Gen.
Eventually bought Skoda Rapid 1.0 TSI AT as City 4th Gen did not have an automatic transmission then.
Completed 22k kms recently. The only expenditure in 1.5 yrs has been for Brakes (5200 INR for both the Disks and pads). Everything else with the car and the engine has been superb
Same, also bought rapid AT and happy for last 2.5 yrs
Skoda/vw: Service/spare part cost is comparatively more to hyndai.
If you a vw driver already and a driving enthusiastic, you will never like Korean brand. If you are new user of car , and you need car for traveling with family , good iteriors, go for Korean brands. Parts are easily available as their service centres. Am a hundai user(i20 petrol, 45k driven) for 12 years and skoda(kushaq 1l tsi auto, 6k driven) from past one year.
I didnot face any issues with skoda.
Skoda vw : nothing can match their dynamics.
Hyundai and skoda : they have their advantages.
Hyundai: good interior,resale, more service centers
Skoda: dynamics, strong built
How's the quality of airconditioner is there is any issue with it
May i pls know wat kind of fuel being used... ? Any spl high octane petrol or sada petrol...
Thank you Motor Octane for this video
Good to see MotorOctane speaking to German car owner. Usually you guys are inclined more towards Korean and Japanese brands.
German?
Proud owner of skoda rapid 1.6 tdi ❤️ lovely machine ❤️
I just bought a kushaq. Watched most videos from this channel and it helped make this decision.
Thanks a lot for making buying decision easier @rachit and team
Which varient
Not ideal for 5, but a super car for 4...
I am proud owner of Škoda Fabia … using this little beauty from 11 years. Waiting for Slavia Monte Carlo. Once you own VW group car, you won’t go for another brand 😊
Slavia Monte Carlo 😍
Buy a red Slavia and get it dechromed 😂
@@AniketYadav-eu2gx That's what i am planning to do with my red slavia, dechrome, black roof, black allows, black spoiler ✌🏼
@@AniketYadav-eu2gx True , but I am expecting some changes like LED turn indicators and LED fog lights in Monte Carlo version
fantastic real review ..
@motorOctane never spoke about its AC (1.0 automatic), request you to give a review about the same
I am planning to buy Skoda kushaq style or ambition auto used 2021. Please suggest
hi , i am planning kushaq , what you suggest Kushaq style manual 1.O or Kushaq Ambition 1.5. presently driving hyundai xcent 1.2 petrol
Great exploitation by real user.
I'm planning to buy the compact suv.
This will help me a lot.
And surely will take consultancy. 😊
How is the low speed drive as it's a 3 cylinder engine
Wanted to know from all, how much difference does it make to choose the Service Maintenance Package? Coz I’ve calculated the yearly maintenance cost as given on the Škoda website and it’s not much of a difference. Also if SMP is chosen, are there any Labour Charges required to be paid ?
Very Good Video For Owner's Review Skoda Kushaq Ki Motor Octane.✌👌
My story is similar to the person.
Bought in 2021 Aug ...
23900+ till now
0 cost on service at 15000
Face few accident.. still going good.
I also bought because of driving capabilities
Good going 👏
Did VW/Skoda address these issues mentioned by customers?:
• Rattling and squeaking noise from everywhere
• Break noise is apparent in the 1.0 automatic while creeping in b2b traffic, parking and reversing. The brake pads makes a screeching sound and the ABS brings the car to a juddering halt
• Jerky brakes. Brakes are not as much activated till a certain time and then they suddenly become too sharp
• Aggressive creep function in 1.0 automatic. The acceleration is quite aggressive when parking in tight spots.
• AC ineffective and AC cutoff problem
• Fuel injector issues
• EPC error/ Fuel pump malfunction leaving the car stranded on road during trip
• Min 95 octane fuel mandated in the manual which is extremely difficult to find
• The discs are very grabby, the car doesn't start creeping forward because of the stuck brakes
• MT has issue of clutch pedal sticking to the bottom in excessive usage, mostly on mountains or bumper to bumper traffic
• Power window one touch up doesn't work sometimes and it comes down on its own
• Transparent/open part of the sun blind making the AC ineffective by letting in sunlight heat
• Panel gaps
• Exhaust smell coming into cabin when AC in recirculation mode. Outdoor smell coming in despite the AC vent closed or on, painful whenever passing a drain
• Piano black on the interior prone to scratches easily
• Cabin lamp comes apart and fell down on potholed roads
• The cruise buttons in the right switchboard panel of the steering wheel fell off on its own
• Noisy windows roll motor
• Engine sound inside cabin. if music is not played and road is relatively empty, engine noise is irritating inside cabin
• Front ac vents are of cheap quality
• Windows roll up/down not working properly
• Noisy ventilated seats
• Irritating Auto start stop switching off the engine on a speed breaker
• Not well done cabin insulation. You hear tyre noise, stones hitting your car underbelly and the engine rev noise.
• Gear stick breaking and coming to your hands
• Jerky rides on lower gears in DSG. D3-D2 transition is jerky when driven at City speeds, DSG is inherently jerky at city speeds
• DSG lag
• Wireless charger heating
• Erratic Android Auto/Apple CarPlay disconnecting and refusing to connect
• Steering alignment issues
• No disk breaks at the rear
• No physical control for AC needing to take eyes off the road to fiddle with climatronic control
• Placement of buttons (lock and auto engine start stop) near gear box is painful to operate for driver. These should have been at right side
• No height adjustable seatbelt
• No sunglass holder(Virtus)
• Smaller size ORVM
• Only typeC port available
• Less wider seats at the front making it uncomfortable for wider people
• Seat which are supposed to be stock seat material, but looks more like after market seat covers. Fit and finish is very poor with lots of wrinkles, lines and loose fitting with exposed zippers, exposed stitching and poor contouring around the creases
• Ugly looking rear with an exposed tank, torsion beam(Slavia)
• No dynamic guidelines on reverse camera
• Low quality/resolution reverse camera
• No full fledged TPMS
• The music audio quality is a let down with no branded audio system in any variants
• Uncomfortable back seat recline angle
• Low mileage in city
• Low quality plastics and cheap materials used for India-spec 2.0 models
• Inability of service centre to resolve issues. They are pathetically slow & poor in responding to query
Bhai bhai bhai….
@@saikiranchetikam7040 😅
Aare baap re
Headlights of Kushaq are not good enough @motoroctane any suggestions?
Very honest review
What is air condition response in June & July on 1 ltr engine
Wonderful owner review... Lots of Love for Motor Octane from Kashmir ❤
We took our VW Polo comfortline to Ladakh, can the owner specify which route he took to leh, is it via Manali or Srinagar
Presently in India, hardly anyone can beat VW or Skoda for safety, build quality.
What was the price paid to get the bumper repaired after the incident?
I just add one thing , now it has given great mileage as well (20+) , i have experienced in my car which is about 4 month old.
Skoda and vw are the gems in car industry
Skoda : superb built, reliable, safest, comfort
And what a feel
Amazing experience , awesome ride
Kushaq has justified its name king 👑 on crowns
Badi baat jalti hai dekhne waloon ki aur bhethne k baad aur jalti hai why they chose creta 😂😂😂😂
In my place i might be the 3rd owner of kushaq. In 2022
After that i recommend it to other one other guy go for salvia.
Rachit Hirani and Suchit Patni....it's like brothers from another mother 😀😀😀 From names to surnames and then height...you two look so similar.. 😀😀
Any car costs good money and if the buyer gets the satisfaction of owning a good car and is happy over his choice nothing like it ! 👍👍👍
Please compare kushaq vs taigun 1.0L TSI with manual transmission becoz most of the people would go for these variants and engine.
Legroom in Kushaq is really good currently no car in the segment can match it.
What about the EPC failure? Is this issue resolved in Kushaq now? I cancelled my booking for this car although I absolutely loved the ride quality.
I have not faced any such issue and company replaced my fuel pump free of cost when they recalled initial batch.
But 1.5 tsi
What about EPC error and AC ISSUE
I have recently purchased Kushaq 1lt MT Style , shall I purchase the extended warranty or not ? The default warranty exists for 4 years, and purchasing extended on adds 2 more years of warranty.
thanks, team Motor Octane, receiving our Kushaq on the 18th of this month, based on your recommendation 🤩
Price and model?
@@kamleshrangari4824 style 1 ltr automatic- 20.57 with few additional accessories- in Bangalore
Just check the AC performance at PDI. its not adequate
@@anoopsivan7708 PDI done ✔️ ✌️
Brother kindly check for EPC issue. There have been instances with cars halting on mid highways due to such errors.
All the best...
It will great if skoda 1 ltr comes with hybrid technology which is in Europe available, it would have better mileage
detailed and helpful review. btw Owner's voice is so similar to Abhay Deol 😊
which is better, taigun or kushaq?
I have Exact same feelings with my Taigun !
Build quality of Skoda cars are superb.
The Valet parking guy couldn't judge the power of the because it's Turbocharged car .
Or maybe just maybe, valets are fucking idiots who don't know how to drive.
VW Škoda doing fab job ,It’s pity that people still end up buying tin cans and compromise on their safety
Brother...kya August mid me.... march manufactured car leni chahiye..... kushaq 1.5 ambition
I hv taken test drive of this vehicle..it is a fantastic car..if they will provide 360 view camera- front bumper sensors and panoramic sunroof ..then it will be a compact package..
That will take it above 22lacs. I don't think people will pay that much for a compact suv.
My red style AT
Completed 48000km in 2 years
It is amazing sexy car , fun to drive , amazing handling you will enjoy to cornering in this car
as always skoda is just impressive...
What is the cost of maintainance with Kushaq? Diesel variant
Hey Rachit,
Are they planning to bring back 10 inch infotainment soon?
I am not happy with 8 inch one.
Kiger got good cabin space for back seats
What about maintenance
I regret buying 1.0 tsi automatic. I have been facing issues with the ac, it's been almost 10 months now and even the showroom is not able to resolve the issue
I have bought Kushaq after seeing Rachits short video of GNCAP RATING about it, next day I booked it.
I have booked Kushaq 1.0 automatic. delivery is in couple of day. when i went on PDI, realized the AC is not working that great. cooling is not that great. I kept it on LOW more that 15min still it wansnt adequate to chill the cabin. in normal cars in 15min on low AC with fanspeed 3 means you will get enough cooling..
later on checked many reviws in youtube and web portals... so most of them are facing the same issue. even in taigun.
now im confused shud i go for the same or cancel it as AC is the vital part of a car.
Cancel it
cancel it
AC is one of the most important things in car to consider....
Baad m boht torture hoga...
Cancel it
6 महीने chlta hai AC..
उसके लिए Is कार ko cancel krna..
Not good..
Or Ac related issues aage car system update se theek bhi kr skti hai ...
Don't cancel
System update ke sath wo thik ho jata hai
What bumps and all vo feel hote hai kya ismai?
Car bahut achi h but skoda walo ko pricing thodi competitive rakhni chahiye thi , I have talked to many people about this and majority of them told that if the pricing would have been more competitive than it would be a really good option and many people will opt for it
What about kushaq 1.5 ltr engine performance
Everything is great about skoda kushaq but one thing it fails to give is the second seater space for 3 members, I know company claims 4+1 but still in india it matters a lot and I think skoda should concentrate on making this one issue go away.
What was cost for oil change and maintenance cost after warranty
Resale value
Hey, I love your videos... I am a Photographer & Video Editor and wanted to suggest kindly reducing the noise in the audio quality.
Otherwise, your videos are amazing.
Service is not a issue, if you get it done timely, on proper schedule, and get parts repaired or replaced as per their advice. You should be willing to spend a good amount of money.
Its cost of ownership is 1.5 times of any other average brand.
Thank you for this information
What if manufacturing defect arises ? Or something worns out suddenly ?
No one will replace or repair the parts which are working fine, some parts will die suddenly
after warranty ends the costs become very high for normal wear and tear parts plus service and long wait times. their MTTR is very long just like tata cars.
When I told my friends about my new car , they said itne mei to Creta aajati. They didn’t know I rejected all the other after one test drive on this. 😂

What is the milage when run the car at 120kmph
Perfect Pick ! kushaq will last 15+years, seltos and hyundai do not want the owners to use their cars beyond 4 yrs 😂 they will launch an upgrade which will make the previous gen look obsolete 😂😂
Still their are so many santros are running in indian roads from 15+ yrs. It's depend on owner how he maintain their vehicles.

Wonderful owner experience of wonderful car 🚗 Kushaq.
where is off-road in leh Ladakh?

Is it okay to go with Brezza VXi or Grand Vitara Delta or Skoda Kushaq? Skoda Onyx from safety perspective, good power with 1.0 Turbo, camera is not good, 5star rating with 2 airbags, included 4 yr service cost. Maruti from economy perspective, only two airbags, no GNCAP, decent power, mild hybrid with less boot space, service cost extra. Please suggest. Sunroof is not required.
I am also SKODA KUSHAQ 1.0L TSI owner, car is very good and i am very happy and recomend to other
