Inside, the Karoq impresses with its upgraded interior, featuring leather upholstery with distinctive grey stitching. The front seats are electrically adjustable in 12 ways and can memorize three positions for added convenience. The Sportline model sports a 3-spoke steering wheel, while the Premium version offers a 2-spoke design. A modern 8-inch or 10.25-inch infotainment screen graces the dashboard.
Under the hood, both variants are powered by a 1.4 TSI Turbo gasoline engine, delivering 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. This is coupled with an 8-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive.
Priced at 1,009 and 1,129 billion VND, respectively, the Skoda Karoq faces competition from established rivals such as the Hyundai Tucson, Honda CR-V, and Ford Territory, as well as European contenders like the Peugeot 3008 and Volkswagen Tiguan.
