News & reviews

"Driving this car is an absolute pleasure when everything is working so well together."

"Sporty wagons are rare, and rarer still is a PHEV sporty wagon."

"As was usual for any Škoda Superb, the ride was near on perfect, the car is very refined and our rear-seat passenger was almost sticking his feet straight out in the back. If you haven’t seen the legroom in a Škoda Superb, you’d be blown away. It’s like a limo back there."

“The end result with the new Octavia is a beautifully clean, minimalistic look.”

“In the current range, there’s not a single Škoda model I don’t like, and at the top of the Like List is the Superb. We reviewed the Scout model in July, and all it did was remind me how good the Superb is. More than fast enough, AWD, smooth, incredibly spacious, well appointed, well built, value for money...”

"The level of space and practicality you get is super impressive. Luxury and safety kit are also generous, making this a great family car."

"The practical Škoda Kodiaq is one of the very best seven-seat SUVs, as well as one of the most affordable."

"The Karoq is the first car to use this new engine, and I can confirm this 1.5 motor is a gem. Quiet, torquey, smooth – very smooth".

“Sometimes a car seems to sit just-right in that goldilocks zone of the market it’s designed for, and the Kamiq Monte Carlo is one of those cars. The balance of price and spec represents great value, it’s big enough but not too big, comfortable, looks good, and is well deserving of our Family Car of the Year title."

"The Škoda Fabia is a well proven supermini contender that builds on the dependable nature of its predecessors with more tech and a surprisingly enjoyable drive. It’s very roomy, handles tidily, has some strong engines."

"After a rigorous testing and evaluation process, New Zealand Police has selected the Škoda Superb as the new frontline Police car."
