I ordered the kodiaq SEL Phev at the beginning of October and was given a 3 -4 month lead time, however the Sportline model came on shortly after so the dealer kindly changed the order and managed to source one from stock which was delivered just before Christmas. If you don’t deviate from the standard build with option packs then you may well get a stock car a lot sooner. I had an issue with one of the motability specialist at the dealership to begin with because he didn’t put my order on the system and left the company , but once I created a fuss I managed to get it all sorted and the dealership couldn’t have been more helpful in sourcing a car . The Kodiaq replaced a much loved RAV4 and for the most part has exceeded my expectations , it’s lot quieter and I can actually hear the radio now at motorway speeds ! the interior is very spacious and comfortable and the ride is almost as good as the RAV4. It’s easy to drive and manoeuvre even for a large car and has all the safety options you require with handy buttons on the steering wheel to turn off the ones you don’t. Being a PHEV it’s costing me pennies to run compared to the RAV4 as I can charge at home and my daily runs are less than 60 miles. All of the tech works with my android and apple devices but it can be a bit clunky at times and the phone app is quite basic . The only issue so far is with the navigation map on the virtual cockpit , this doesn’t work and requires a software update that isn’t yet available from Skoda. The map works on the main screen though so not too much of an issue. In summary , it’s a great car , very spacious and well put together.
