Skoda Kodiaq MY2026 Adds ADAS on Higher Trims in India

The move brings the SUV in line with rivals that already offer driver assists.

Overview

  • Skoda revealed the 2026 Kodiaq for India with a seven-function ADAS suite on the Sportline and Selection L&K trims that adds adaptive cruise control, lane keeping, frontal assist, blind-spot alerts, rear cross-traffic alert, exit warning, and adaptive headlights.
  • The mid-spec Sportline now gets a 360-degree camera and a grille-embedded LED light strip, while the base Lounge variant remains unchanged.
  • There are no mechanical changes, with the 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine rated at 204 hp and 320 Nm paired to a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox and all-wheel drive.
  • Prices are not out yet, with reports pointing to a premium of up to Rs 75,000 over the current model and a launch expected later this month.
  • Kodiaq is currently the only Skoda in India with ADAS, and the company says it will extend these driver aids to lower-priced models over the next two years.
