Every normal car is actually for 4 homo sapiens, including SUVs. if you need 3 separate back seats, forget SUV and start looking after S-max, Galaxy, Espace, Alhambra or Sharan. Or even something more huge.

It's being removed from Slovenian configurator, too.

If you have leather or alcatara seats, you can't fold co-driver's seat. And you need to pay extra for foldable co-driver's seat also.

Unfortunately Alhambra will be replaced with Seat Alora that will be a clone of Kodiaq. Real vehicles for families with 3+ kids are going to join the dinosaurs, aren't they?

Depends on what do you need? If you have 3 kids, go for S-max, Alhambra or Espace. All those have 3 separate seats. I have 2 kids and Kodiaq will be great for my needs.

Espace.

SUVs like tourings are normally ment for 4 people only. I want Kodiaq because it is 4x4 and it is a SUV. And that's it.

OK, a description for 7-seater reveals 145/85R18.

If I check Slovenian configurator I can see: a. 215/65R17 as full size spare wheel for 5-seater (Canton is not possible in that case) b. unknown sized ALU spare wheel (Canton is not possible in that case, too) c. 145/85R18 as space saver for 5-seater (needed for Canton) d. unknown sized full size spare wheel or space saver for 7-seater (needed for Canton - so I would gamble on space saver)

5-seater with full 235/55R18 spare wheel

...that is 145/85?R17

Another one with space saver...

Some magazines make me angry with their non-competent articles. Last year Autobild wrote that Kodiaq had 9,2" navi. Oh, really?!?

Narrower than Yeti?

Another two shots: 7-seater vs 5-seater 5-seater w/o space saver has ability to have double floor. That one on the Picture below doesn't have. There is also an option to have full size spare Wheel. I that case floor is almost similar to the one in 7-seater.

5-seater with space saver has a bigger depth than 7-seater (blue). And even w/o space saver it gets around 16 cm more in depth than 7-seater (white).

Same problem with kids and windows on my wife's Captur, too.

Could a third person sit in between?

There is one in Slovenia. Our dealers will get its own demo cars in March. And I expect to get my delivery date (ordered on 12th Jan) by end of February.

When I had a test drive, I drove the car with dark alcantara. It was rainy at 8am in the morning. It was quite dark inside and I really liked the whole interrior. But it may look worse with beige interrior. Large and crystal-clear navigation unit, brisk instrumental cluster/panel and nicely lighted buttons on steering wheel, air conditioning and elsewhere was everything that I saw at that time. Mostly I was focusing on the road and how it rides. Maybe at sunny noon It could look different. But at least this part of the car in front of the front passeneger is not covered with plain plastic as I saw in Superb.

Between Zebra part and glove box or Zebra part itself?

Scout and Sportsline are already mentioning 9.2" display. It may be offered from week 22 on. 2.5D is probably 2D viewed in birds view that looks like 3D.

Columbus will have 9.2" in the near future and it currently has: - 3D maps (Amundsen has 2.5D) - online maps update (Amundsen has SD card that is updated on computer) - fully functional window in window - internal 64 GB SSD drive - 2 free SD card slots - Google Maps and Street View - option to include LTE module with SIM slot and RSAP
