Skoda Singapore offered Mycarforum members the opportunity to take the all-new Kodiaq out for a spin and learn all about the car.

Working together with Sgcarmart and Mycarforum, Skoda Singapore organised a cozy sharing session in its showroom located at 26 Leng Kee Road.

Mycarforum members were invited to the showroom to get up close with the all-new Skoda Kodiaq at this Mycarforum Hangout event.

The event was kicked off on an upbeat note with an opening address by Mr. David Nah, the Brand Director of Skoda Singapore.

Offering excellent utility with plenty of style, the Skoda Kodiaq has always been a popular mid-size SUV around the world, and especially so in Singapore. The spotlight was shining on the Kodiaq - built on the MQB Evo platform, which underlies many of Volkswagen Group’s latest models, it is now bigger and better than ever before. At first glance, those not as familiar with these cars might mistake the Kodiaq as a facelift, as it has retained the split-headlight design of its predecessor.

However, the new Kodiaq is now longer than before, resulting in a 70-litre increase in cargo capacity - it now offers 340 litres of boot space with all seats up, and expands to a maximum of 2,035 litres.

Along with the increase in cargo capacity, is a slew of smart features that have been introduced in the Kodiaq. The Travel Assist feature, an extension of the typical Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering assistance, is one of the most user-friendly and capable driving assist feature out there - the Kodiaq is able to come to a complete stop and move off autonomously while following the car in front of it! Also unique to the new Kodiaq are Smart Dials - physical knobs with a display in the middle, and these could be toggled to control various functions with a quick press as well.

All these impressive features and equipment that the Kodiaq offers were shared with the attendees of the event by Mr. Ernie Chua, Senior Trainer at Volkswagen Group Singapore.

After the passionate and detailed presentation about the Kodiaq by Ernie, Zhi Xuan from Sgcarmart’s Editorial Team shared his favourite features of the car - the Smart Dials and the generous boot space, with the crowd.

But one can only know get to know so much about a car from a third-person’s point of view - after the sharing session and some refreshments, it was time for the test drive!

Attendees took the new Skoda Kodiaq and the Skoda Enyaq, to the roads to experience for themselves the easy drive and comfortable journey that these cars offer, and came back all smiles.

As the morning with Skoda was nearing to an end, it was time for the prize presentation - being the first to complete the Skoda-themed crossword puzzle correctly, Roy Tng walked away with exclusive Skoda merchandise!
