Mladá Boleslav / Paris, 1. October 2018 – With the launch of the new ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE, ŠKODA is presenting a particularly sporty compact SUV. In the SPORTLINE variant, the emotive design of the versatile compact model is further refined. Numerous black elements highlight the dynamic appearance, which is perfectly complemented by the new 140-kW 2.0 TSI engine (190 PS). The most powerful petrol engine in the range is exclusively available for the ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE.

The KAROQ was introduced in 2017 as the second model from ŠKODA’s SUV campaign. It transferred the clear and emotive design language into the compact SUV segment whilst offering space for occupants and their luggage despite its compact dimensions. In addition, state-of-the-art technology further improves safety and comfort. The SPORTLINE adds a new ŠKODA KAROQ variant specially designed for sportiness, which makes this model range even more attractive and will also appeal to new customer groups.

Under the bonnet, the ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE underlines its sporty ambitions with a 140 kW 2.0 TSI engine (190 PS), which is exclusively reserved for this variant of the KAROQ model range. The all-wheel drive, which comes as standard when combined with this engine, further improves the car’s agile handling and offers additional safety.

The 18-inch Mytikas alloy wheels and numerous elements such as the radiator grille and rear diffuser – all in gloss black – give the exterior a sporty look. In the interior, other sporty highlights include black sports seats with new fabric covers and contrasting silver stitching, the multifunction sports steering wheel and stainless-steel pedal covers. A special logo on the infotainment system screen welcomes the driver. The optional virtual cockpit features a special SPORTLINE layout.

 

The ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE offers a choice of four efficient and eco-friendly engines, all of which comply with the Euro 6d-TEMP emissions standards. The highlight is the most powerful petrol engine in the range – exclusively reserved for the KAROQ SPORTLINE: the 2.0 TSI engine transfers its 140 kW (190 PS) to all four wheels via a 7-speed DSG.

The 1.5 TSI petrol engine, which is available in addition to the 2.0 TSI engine, has a power output of 110 kW (150 PS) with a combined fuel consumption of 5.3 l/100 km thanks to automatic cylinder shutdown. The 1.5 TSI engine comes with a manual 6-speed transmission as standard; a 7-speed DSG is optional. Both TSI engines are fitted with a petrol particulate filter.

The two 2.0 TDI diesel engines for the ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE offer the same levels of power as the petrol engines. Standard equipment includes an SCR catalytic converter with AdBlue injection and a diesel particulate filter. The engine with 110 kW (150 PS) powers the front wheels via a manual 6-speed transmission as standard. All-wheel drive is available as an option, as is a 7‑speed DSG coupled with all-wheel drive. The 140-kW 2.0 TDI (190 PS) comes with a 7-speed DSG and all-wheel drive as standard. Depending on respective surface conditions, the permanent all-wheel drive (5th generation) distributes the power to individual wheels variably. This improves the car’s agile handling and offers additional safety, for example with increased traction on slippery surfaces.

The Sound Generator function, which offers occupants an impressive and more unique note, is newly available for the ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE with the 140-kW (190-PS) 2.0 TSI or TDI engines. The Sound Generator function is exclusively available with Driving Mode Select and is therefore part of the ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE’s standard equipment.

 

The SPORTLINE variant of the ŠKODA KAROQ is getting an even sportier touch. Besides the body-coloured sporty front bumper, the radiator grille, wing mirror housings and rear diffuser are particularly eye-catching – all finished in gloss black. The exclusive 18-inch Mytikas alloy wheels are also in gloss black, as are the optional 19-inch Vega alloy wheels. SPORTLINE badges on the front wings clearly identify the most dynamic variant of the ŠKODA KAROQ. The body-coloured protective side trims, tinted windows (Sunset) and the black roof rails provide elegance; the exhaust system’s visible silver decorative tailpipes form another accentuated detail.

The interior features striking black seats with contrasting silver stitching. Their covers are made from three layers of breathable new ThermoFlux fabric, offering occupants exceptional comfort particularly in the summer. The front seats feature lumbar supports. The multifunction sports steering wheel with perforated black leather also exhibits contrasting silver stitching, as do the gearstick with gaiter and the centre armrest as components of the small leather package.

The decorative strips on the instrument panel come in Piano Black, whilst the strips in the door trims are finished in a carbon-fibre decor. Stainless steel pedal covers, a SPORTLINE logo on the instrument panel, KAROQ logos on the door sills, a black roof lining, black roof pillars and an LED package with ambient lighting complete the sporty appearance.

The optional virtual cockpit offers the driver a choice of various layouts. The virtual cockpit is now also available with a fifth display layout: Sport. The current speed is shown in the centre of the display. The selected radio station and the driving data are shown on the right and left. There is space for information on the current engine output and oil temperature in the lower part of the display. The virtual cockpit in the SPORTLINE variant has a modified carbon-fibre effect (sport skin), which changes the foreground and background of all five display layouts.    

The optional SmartLink+ technology provides comprehensive connectivity options in the ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE. The system allows Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, MirrorLink™ and SmartGate to be integrated into the car. ŠKODA Media Command allows the infotainment system’s functions to be controlled on up to two connected tablets.

The ŠKODA Connect mobile online services consist of Infotainment Online, Care Connect and Emergency Call. Infotainment Online services include, for example, Online Traffic Information, and the Care Connect services include the Proactive Service function, which establishes a connection to customer care or a garage if necessary. The Emergency Call can be made manually; however, it will automatically call for assistance when the airbags or belt tensioners have been deployed. Digital devices can be paired via a Bluetooth interface; compatible mobile phones can also be charged wirelessly in a Phonebox.

The KESSY keyless entry system, which comes as standard, also enables use of the optional electric tailgate incl. tip-to-close function. The tailgate opens and closes at the push of a button or if it is gently pulled; if desired, it can be opened with just a slight foot movement on a virtual pedal below the rear bumper.

Safety is improved by the auto-dimming rear-view mirror and the Light and Rain Assist function, which automatically adjusts the lighting in the rain or dark. The driver can adjust the driving dynamics of the ŠKODA KAROQ SPORTLINE via Driving Mode Select; the Electronic Stability Control function (ESC) features two levels.

In typical ŠKODA style, there is a wealth of Simply Clever features and storage options. The adjustable false boot floor and the tablet holder in the rear improve the car’s suitability for daily use, as does a driver’s storage box with a slot for car park tickets, coins or SD cards.

›  New off-road variant of the compact SUV centred around rugged design
›  ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT comes with all-wheel drive as standard
›  Comprehensive equipment with 18-inch polished Braga alloy wheels in anthracite, multifunction leather steering wheel as well as new seat covers and decors

Mladá Boleslav / Paris, 1 October 2018 – With the new ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT, ŠKODA is expanding the successful compact SUV’s model portfolio by adding a variant with even more off-road potential. Plastic elements protect the elegant body all around both when travelling in the city and on rougher terrain. The all-wheel drive and Rough-Road package as standard also make the ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT perfectly equipped for off-road use.

Since 2017, the ŠKODA KAROQ SUV has combined impressively compact dimensions with the ŠKODA-typical large amount of space for the occupants. The boot capacity can be increased from 479 to 1,810 litres as needed. The new ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT is now expanding the compact SUV’s great utility: with all-wheel drive as standard and protective plastic elements, it is the ideal companion for driving on rougher terrain now more than ever. With its numerous variants ranging from the dynamic, new SPORTLINE to the rugged SCOUT, the ŠKODA KAROQ perfectly fulfils the requirements of a wide range of customer groups – from young families to outdoor enthusiasts – both on and off the road.

The choice of engines for the ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT includes one petrol and two diesel engines, all of which are coupled with all-wheel drive. Striking silver body sections at the front, rear and sides as well as the 18-inch polished Braga alloy wheels in anthracite emphasise the rugged appearance. In the interior, the multifunction leather steering wheel and the optional virtual cockpit are immediately eye-catching. The LED package with ambient lighting allows the atmosphere in the interior to be customised. The optional SmartLink+ technology provides comprehensive connectivity options in the ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT. The system allows Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, MirrorLink™ and SmartGate to be integrated into the car. ŠKODA Media Command allows the infotainment system’s functions to be controlled on up to two connected tablets. The ŠKODA Connect mobile online services consist of Infotainment Online and Care Connect as well as Emergency Call.

 

As you would expect from a SCOUT model, the three engines available for the ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT are all coupled with all-wheel drive. Depending on the surface conditions, this fifth-generation intelligent all-wheel drive distributes power to individual wheels variably, thereby providing traction even on unsealed roads and additional safety on slippery terrain. Several sensors (e.g. for wheel speed, steering angle, longitudinal and lateral acceleration, accelerator pedal position, engine speed) continuously evaluate the current driving situation, while the all-wheel-drive electronics take all of the incoming parameters into account. When travelling at a steady speed, it is predominantly the front axle that is driven, which reduces fuel consumption. The Rough Road package including underbody protection for the engine and to protect against stone chippings makes driving on rougher terrain even easier.

All of the efficient and environmentally friendly engines fulfil the Euro 6d-TEMP standards. The 110 kW 1.5 TSI petrol engine (150 PS) is the entry-level variant and comes with a 7-speed DSG and a petrol particulate filter as standard. In addition, there are two diesel engines which both come with an SCR catalytic converter with AdBlue injection as well as a diesel particulate filter. The 110‑kW 2.0 TDI engine (150 PS) transfers maximum torque of 340 Nm to the wheels via a manual 6-speed transmission – which comes as standard – or an optional 7-speed DSG. The most powerful ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT is powered by a 140-kW 2.0 TDI engine (190 PS). For this version the 7-speed DSG comes as standard.

The Sound Generator function, which provides occupants with an impressive and more unique note, is newly available for the ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT with the 140-kW 2.0 TDI engine. The Sound Generator function is exclusively available with Driving Mode Select and is therefore part of the ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT’s standard equipment.

 

The ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT’s rugged character is apparent at first glance. Beneath the wheel arches’ distinctive moulding, the car sits on the anthracite-coloured and polished, 18-inch Braga alloy wheels as standard. The Crater 19-inch alloy wheels in metallic anthracite are available as an option. Whilst chrome strips surround the radiator grille and side windows, silver dominates for other elements. The front bumper’s underbody protection, the rear diffuser including the exhaust system’s tailpipes, the wing mirror housings and the roof rails all come in this colour; the side sills combine silver and black. Tinted windows (Sunset) and SCOUT badges on the front wings round off the distinctive appearance of the model variants.

A decorative SCOUT logo can also be found in the interior on the instrument panel with Piano Black decor, whilst the door sills feature KAROQ logos. The Ash Brown decorative strips in the door trims have a dark ash wood effect; Dark Brushed decorative strips are also available as an option. The seats have new covers featuring black/brown contrasting stitching as well as an embroidered SCOUT signature (excludes the optional VarioFlex seats). Contrasting stitching also decorates the centre armrest. The multifunction steering wheel has a leather cover; the pedals are decorated with stainless steel. An LED package with ambient lighting rounds off the range of comfort features in the interior of the ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT.

When the car is equipped with the optional virtual cockpit, the driver can adjust how the instruments are displayed to suit their preferences. Driving Mode Select features an additional Off-Road setting for rougher terrain. The driver can use various display modes for this configuration.

The optional SmartLink+ technology provides comprehensive connectivity options in the ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT. The system allows Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, MirrorLink™ and SmartGate to be integrated into the car. ŠKODA Media Command allows the infotainment system’s functions to be controlled on up to two connected tablets.

The ŠKODA Connect mobile online services consist of Infotainment Online, Care Connect and Emergency Call. Infotainment Online services include, for example, Online Traffic Information, and the Care Connect services include the Proactive Service function. If necessary, Proactive Service establishes a connection to customer care or a garage. The Emergency Call can be made manually; however, it will automatically call for assistance when the airbags or belt tensioners have been deployed. Using a Bluetooth interface, digital devices can be paired with the vehicle, and mobile phones can be charged wirelessly in a Phonebox if necessary.

The ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT comes equipped with the KESSY keyless entry system as standard. This allows the optional electric tailgate including tip-to-close function to be used. The tailgate opens and closes at the push of a button or when it is lightly pulled; if desired, it can be opened with just a slight foot movement on a virtual pedal below the rear bumper. The Light and Rain Assist function supports the driver when it starts to get dark or in bad weather by automatically turning on the dipped beam.

The ŠKODA KAROQ SCOUT, of course, also offers numerous ŠKODA-typical Simply Clever features. These include a retractable roll-up cover attachable to the tailgate (only in combination with Varioflex) and an adjustable false boot floor. The tablet holder in the rear improves the suitability for daily use, as does a driver’s storage box with a slot for car park tickets, coins or SD cards.

Mi disturba un po' il faro posteriore, mi sa di posticcio e incompleto.

Il faro posteriore sembra disegnato da Pablo Picasso, ed è un peccato perché la macchina è molto gradevole (a parte gli interni) e proporzionata nel complesso.

A me sto coso piace, fate come volete. Certo, non è un capolavoro di stile, ma ha di tutto e di più, non è particolarmente cafone e c'è giusto la cosa del marchio, ma anche chissene. 

[skizzo_85]

a me questa piace.

più delle cugine, non so se sia la mia preferita tra le rialzette del segmento ma se non lo è ci va molto vicino.

[boygrunge]

anche per me è OK, l'unico SUV che comprerei! poi scout verde è il top!
