Skoda Auto has offered a sneak peek into the new-generation Skoda Kodiaq’s exterior design, one week prior to its global debut. The released sketches showcase a powerful and emotionally charged design, featuring several noteworthy elements.
A Sculptural Front End and Bold Features
The upcoming Kodiaq exhibits a bold and distinctive appearance with a sculptural front end that commands attention. The squared-off wheel arches give the vehicle a robust and confident stance. Buyers can choose from a range of wheel sizes, spanning 17 to 20 inches, allowing for customization to suit their preferences. The rear of the vehicle sports a solid bumper that complements its overall design.
TOP LED Matrix Headlights with Crystalline Design Elements
One of the standout features of the new Kodiaq is the introduction of second-generation TOP LED Matrix headlights. These advanced headlights not only provide enhanced visibility but also feature crystalline design elements, adding a touch of sophistication to the vehicle’s look.
A Unique D-Pillar Trim and Rear Design
In terms of design details, the Kodiaq offers an optional D-pillar trim finished in Dark Chrome, adding a unique visual element to the vehicle. At the rear, a distinctive wide C-shaped light signature extends towards the center. Connecting the two rear lights is a red bar, contributing to the vehicle’s overall aesthetics. The solid rear bumper enhances the Kodiaq’s presence, and centrally positioned on the tailgate, the new Škoda lettering completes the powerful look.
More Interior Space and Dimensions
The new-generation Kodiaq boasts larger dimensions, promising even more interior space for passengers and cargo. The vehicle features a sculpted bonnet, which not only adds to its visual appeal but also enhances aerodynamics with its dynamic shape.
Future-Ready Design Language
Oliver Stefani, Head of Škoda Design, emphasized that the all-new Kodiaq incorporates elements of the future Modern Solid design language. This design approach, based on the principle of ‘form follows function,’ not only prioritizes practicality but also complements the vehicle’s aerodynamics with its dynamic shape.

The highly anticipated world premiere of the new-generation Škoda Kodiaq is set to be streamed live on the Škoda Storyboard and Škoda’s YouTube channel on October 4, 2023, at 18:45 CEST. Enthusiasts and potential buyers alike can tune in to witness the full unveiling of this striking and modern SUV.
