2022 Skoda Kodiaq facelift production begins in India

The Skoda Kodiaq could also be offered in Sportline trim.

Production of the updated Skoda Kodiaq has commenced at the VW Group's Aurangabad facility. The SUV will be formally launched in January 2022.

The updated Kodiaq gets a few cosmetic changes on the outside. These include a revised front grille, headlamps and a new front bumper. It also gets some minor updates to the rear.

Skoda might offer the updated Kodiaq in Sportline trim as well. This variant will get a slightly sporty treatment featuring a black grille, black ORVMs and window trim, black roof rails, alloy wheels and a black rear spoiler.

The Kodiaq facelift is expected to use the same 2.0-litre, turbo-petrol engine that is offered in the Octavia and Superb. This engine produces 187 BHP and is paired with a 7-speed DSG automatic gearbox and an all-wheel drive system.
