Car Deal of the Day: Skoda Kodiaq is a family favourite for just £234 a month
Skoda’s largest SUV is loved by families for its practicality and low running costs. It’s our Deal of the Day for 26 March
- Spacious interior
- Plug-in hybrid with 75-mile EV range
- £233.89 a month
Skoda might have been a tad slow to join the SUV scene around a decade ago, but it has certainly shown it's a dab hand at the genre now.
The brand’s first SUV, the Skoda Kodiaq, has since spawned a flurry of high-riding family favourites, and the current generation is still a class act.
It's hugely affordable, too. Take this deal from Leasing Options via the Auto Express Find a Car service, for example, which sees you spending just £233.89 a month for one.
Naturally, there's an initial payment to sort first, which comes to £3,106.67, and the deal is for two years. Mileage is limited to 5,000 a year, but you can nudge that up to 8,000 for just over £22 extra a month.
The Kodiaq can be ordered as a practical seven-seat SUV, but here you'll be getting just the five-seater. And there's a very good reason for that, because this deal gives you the super-frugal plug-in hybrid model.
Its 1.5-litre petrol engine is paired with an electric motor, which gets its power from a chunky 25.7kWh (19.7kWh usable) battery pack. That gives a total output of 201bhp, but also means this spacious family SUV can travel an impressive 75 miles on pure electric before needing to be topped up.
This petrol-electric combo has the potential to really slash your running costs – as long as you regularly charge it up. A 40kW rapid-charging capability means roadside top-ups will take less than 30 minutes.
This deal may be for the entry-level SE model, but this is a Skoda, so all the basics are covered plus there are some extra goodies thrown in.
Among the standard features are 18-inch alloy wheels, a 13-inch touchscreen with sat-nav and wireless smartphone connectivity, a 10.25-inch digital display for the dials, wireless phone charging, heated front seats, three-zone climate control, and ambient lighting.
Not only is the interior packed with kit, but it's also a roomy and comfortable place to be. Space up front is very generous, as it is in the rear too, while the 745-litre boot is enormous.
