    In the latest development, a test mule of the upcoming car sans camouflage has been found testing on the roads, revealing its key design highlights.

    Skoda Kodiaq (facelift): At a glance

    Skoda Kodiaq (facelift) will have a sporty design, featuring a sleek blacked-out butterfly-shaped grille, sharp LED headlights, a reworked front bumper with redesigned air inlets, and fog lamps.

    The car will be flanked by roof rails, ORVMs, and 5-spoke alloy wheels with a petal-type design. A 'Skoda' badge placed at the boot's center and split LED taillamps will grace the rear section.

    Information

    Power and performance

    As per a prior report, the facelifted Skoda Kodiaq will draw power from a BS6-compliant 2.0-liter TSI petrol engine that generates 187hp of maximum power and 320Nm of peak torque. The mill should be linked to a 7-speed DSG gearbox and an all-wheel-drive setup.

    Multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, and a rear-view camera should be there for the safety of the passengers.
