2024 Skoda Kodiaq PHEV gets a complete interior makeover

author: FutureCar Staff    

The next-generation Skoda Kodiaq will feature an interior with physical dial controls for important functions, according to new images released by the Czech firm. The three dials, located between the centre console and dashboard, can be customized to manage various functions. The official images demonstrate the system's ability to control climate settings and stereo volume for the front occupants. Additionally, the dials on either side of the front occupants can manage cabin temperature, seat heating or ventilation, based on user preference. The central controller can adjust fan speed, air direction, sound system volume, driving mode, and sat-nav map zoom.

In addition to the physical dial controls, the new Kodiaq will also feature a large 12.9-inch infotainment touchscreen and a 10-inch digital instrument display. The automatic gear selector has been relocated from the centre console to a stalk on the steering wheel, freeing up more legroom for the front occupants. Connectivity has been emphasized in the design, with USB-C ports integrated into the rear-view mirror and centre console, along with a 15W wireless phone-charging box.

The Skoda Kodiaq is part of a three-part series of successful SUVs from the Czech maker. The new Kodiaq, set to be released in the first quarter of 2024, will continue to share parts with other Volkswagen Group models, including the new VW Tiguan. Pricing, trim levels, and equipment details will be confirmed later this year. The range will include a standard Kodiaq and a sportier-looking SportLine version, with most versions offering seven seats. A hotter Skoda Kodiaq vRS version is expected to join the range approximately a year later.
