Skoda celebrates 10 years of Kodiaq with Edition X

Skoda is commemorating a decade of its Kodiaq SUV with a limited-run Edition X model.

Launched in 2016, the Kodiaq arrived as the Czech brand’s flagship SUV, bringing five- or seven-seater configurations at a price tag which undercut many rivals of the time.

The new Edition X brings a high level of standard equipment to showcase just what the Kodiaq can do, with features such as 19-inch anthracite alloy wheels and a full exterior styling pack with black D-pillar accents, a dark chrome front grille and chrome roof rails included.

Inside, there’s a combination of perforated black leather and artificial leather for the seats, with the driver’s chair getting electric adjustability and a memory function.

The Edition X is only available with a 1.5-litre mild-hybrid engine, bringing 148bhp through a seven-speed automatic gearbox. As standard, the Edition X comes in a seven-seater configuration as standard, too.

Skoda says that the introduction of the Edition X leaves the rest of the Kodiaq range ‘unchanged’ with five specifications to choose from, including high-end L&K and vRS models.

The new Edition X will go on sale from April 16, with prices starting at £40,590.
