Re: China: Skoda Kamiq crossover leaked Skoda Kamiq unveiled in China
Skoda has unveiled the Kamiq SUV. The car will be displayed at the Auto China 2018 and is scheduled to be launched after two months.
The Kamiq measures 4,390 mm long, 1,781 mm wide, 1,593 mm high and has a wheelbase of 2,610 mm. It will be the smallest SUV in Skoda's SUV line-up and is expected to be positioned below the Karoq and Kodiaq in the company's SUV line-up.
The Kamiq gets a black, dual vertical slat grille that is flanked by twin-pod headlamps, while the grille is surrounded by a chrome border. A full-width air dam with a single horizontal chrome stripe and hexagonal vents sits below the grille. The vehicle gets twin 5-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels, roof rails and a chrome strip below the side windows. At the rear, there is a dual-tone bumper and horizontal tail lights with separate reflector strips below them.
Earlier this year, images of a lower variant of the Kamiq surfaced online. However, there were no details available about the interiors of the car. Skoda has now revealed that the SUV will get an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with compatibility for Apple CarPlay, Baidu Carlife and MirrorLink, while offering voice control and navigation functions. The system will also be able to provide real time updates on traffic, weather and POI notifications among others.
The Kamiq will be powered by a 1.5-litre petrol engine that develops 109 BHP and 150 Nm of torque. It will be paired with an automatic transmission.
Skoda is likely to produce the Kamiq at Volkswagen's joint venture facility in Shanghai. The company has not revealed any plans to introduce the car in India. Link to the Team-BHP News
