Re: Skoda Kushaq Review

I quite like the base variant. But that infotainment system looks heidous. Does it have wireless Apple CarPlay?

Surprisingly it does have wired carplay and Android auto. Kudos to Skoda for including Apple Carplay and Android Auto.

Having said that, it's still unfathomable that they goofed up the brochure and made the Active look like a barebones variant when it is actually so well equipped

It has Apple carplay and Android Auto but it's wired. Even then, that's a pretty sweet feature in a base variant of a car. I feel the Active is the most VFM variant.

It has wired Carplay and Android auto. Not wireless.

Doesn't look good but at least it's a full featured touchscreen unlike the No infotainment or a basic Bluetooth headunit in the entry level Creta/Seltos.

They should get another variant between active and ambition. Call it active + .

Re: Skoda Kushaq Review

I have done a longer drive today for manual variant, and I am happy about it. This 1 litre engine is much much better than 1.5 NA of competitors.

As per my dealer I will get my vehicle on 15th. Any advice before delivery?

Congrats! Please do a thorough PDI and get the extended warranty, if available.
Also, you could save good money on insurance if taken from outside, or ask your dealer to match the outside quote.

Congrats! The 1.0 base variant is good value for money and the 1.0 engine with manual gearbox will give you better performance as well as control over mileage. Do get good seat covers from outside and you should be good to go! All the best to you and look forward to your ownership thread.

Looks to be a non peak hour run without being held up in signals in the city. Maybe real usage will give about 13-14 kmpl after actual traffic.

Even better, then you are sorted on the safety side too with 6 airbags
Good choice of the variant and wish you a great ownership!

Re: Skoda Kushaq Review

The deliveries of the Skoda Kushaq 1.0-litre TSI will begin on July 12, 2021, which also marks the auspicious day of RathYatra. On this special occasion, around 60 units of the Kushaq will be delivered to customers in Ahmedabad.
