Skoda Kamiq 2019 Review


The urban SUV, the Skoda Kamiq, celebrated its world premiere on 23 April 2018 at the Skoda International Media Workshop at the Czech Embassy in Beijing. Following on from the Skoda Kodiaq and the Skoda Karoq, the new SUV is to become the third member of the Skoda SUV family. The Skoda Kamiq is rigorously continuing the powerful Skoda SUV design language and impresses with modern technology and an expressive design. Immediately after the world premiere, Skoda will present the Kamiq to the public at the 'Auto China 2018' in Beijing.
The new Skoda Kamiq combines compact dimensions and a surprisingly spacious interior. The body is 4,390 mm long, 1,781 mm wide and 1,593 mm high. The wheelbase is 2,610 mm. The car is equipped with an all-new 1.5-litre petrol engine that produces a power output of 81 kW and torque of up to 150 Nm. The engine's power is transmitted via an automatic gearbox.

The Skoda Kamiq's design comes with all the features of Skoda's powerful SUV design language. The typical radiator grille with its vertical double slats is an unmistakeable expression of Skoda's DNA. Lines in the crystalline headlights flow into the lines of the grille, lending the Kamiq a bold appearance. The precise, sharply cut tornado line gives a three-dimensional look and, together with the 17-inch double five-spoke alloy wheels, creates a sporty side view. The crystalline tail lights are positioned horizontally. This and the outward position of the reflectors make the SUV appear wider.
The robust design also continues in the interior. Thanks to the raised infotainment display in the centre of the dashboard, the driver can operate many vehicle functions with great ease and comfort. A chrome trim running across the entire width of the dashboard stylishly connects its components. One effective detail is the innovative, angled installation of the speakers. Due to their ergonomic design, the driver and front passenger seat offer excellent comfort and lateral support. The seat covers come in a plaid pattern with 3D effect, which further enhances the modern feel of the interior.

The Skoda Kamiq is aimed at young, urban customers who wish to maintain their digital lifestyle even whilst on the go in their car and who desire modern connectivity solutions. Therefore, the new SUV is equipped with an intelligent connectivity system that has been newly developed by Skoda. The technological highlight of the system is the voice control from iFLYTEK, one of Asia's leading providers of voice recognition based on artificial intelligence. The software understands regional Chinese dialects and can even learn individual and local language styles automatically. Smartphones can be connected via Apple CarPlay, Baidu Carlife and MirrorLink™ interfaces; compatible apps are operated on the eight-inch screen with a resolution of 1,280 x 720. In addition, the connectivity system also provides many practical services such as a guide for restrictions based on number plates, real-time traffic information, weather information and POI notifications.
