ah thanks for that – i’d seen on thr motability site and skodas site that the sportive 85x now comes in 2 varieties regular and MAXX and they removed some of the feature HUD etc from the regular – when we ordered it the sport line was the top spec – and what they won’t tell me is what is going to arrive – they assure me in legalise that to the best of their understanding it is what we ordered – i just don’t want to get into an argument on the exchange – if it’s missing something we need or expected – the salesman was awful too tbh impolite and wanted to get into a debate about what things were the deal breaker – i also feel an bit aggrieved as they asked us for a deposit which we gave and then when i contracted motability about another matter they said we didn’t need to have put a deposit down – so i’ve started off on the back foot, first skoda we’ve had and im already bothered if that makes sense – the change apparently is because of the VRS coming out
None of the features have been removed from the 85X. Skoda now offers a Sportsline 85, but this isn’t part of the scheme. The 85X with Maxx is as it says the 85x plus Maxx package, which is normally a £1700 add on so a great deal if you want or need it.
The AWD is only active in Traction mode up to 20 mph but will kick in at any time when it’s needed in any mode.
