What do you call this colour? 

Energy blue...I think

I would say it's energy blue 

The only 'free' colour. 

Hence my ILs have it.  Looks pretty good in person.

Yes it would have been my choice until the metallic Race Blue came along

Both almost as nice as Petrol Blue.  

 

It look horrendous. No wonder it's free. Skoda should be paying people to gave it on their cars, to get rid of the painf

No it does not look horrendous, in fact it is nicer than several of the colours that you have to pay through the nose for such as - Meteor Grey, Candy White, Moon White, Magnetic Brown, Brilliant Silver and Velvet Red. White is the worst colour for a car, silver is just boring, brown is the colour of ****, Meteor Grey looks like primer, and Velvet Red looks anything but special.

Quite a turnaround for the Velvet Red - costs a bloody fortune yet looks almost the same as the last outgoing VWG free colour, Signal Red.

 

We run a Karoq in Energy Blue and, to my eyes, looks just fine.

I don't mind energy blue, being a cheapskate I refuse to pay for paint on a lease car.

It's more interesting than the free colour I had on my SEAT, I think it was Mediterranean blue - another non-metallic blue, but slightly darker. 

The colours I can't stand are the ones that make a car disappear into the background on the road. VW seem to have decided 50 Shades of Grey are the way to go (which was one of the key reasons I decided against a Tiguan) and SEAT have actually got an Ateca colour called Dark Camouflage! I wonder what the insurance premiums will be for that??   

We spent the first 3 months of this year (remember the time before Covid Acopalypse?) in Aus, so Aussie summer with really strong sun.  We found that the best cars to see in the distant heat haze were invariably white.  Much more visible ahead than any other colour, we could see a white car without lights on before many other colours with lights on.  Very useful when overtaking Road Trains.  

 

Just an aside in this colour debate. 

&

White cars in hot sunny climes are just simply clever as they reflect the heat unlike dark cars / roofs.

Hence caravans used to be white or have white roofs, Safari Land Rovers had white or light roofs.

 

In a snowy country a Red roof is not a bad idea, or orange, and in cold places a dark car.

Well as I live in Yorkshire my Black car must have been the right choice!

By far, best color for Karoq. Have metallic black, it does fit the car nicely..this one is better. 

You lot crack me up they only asked what colour this is.

Correct AKA cheapskate blue popular with the leasing brigade coz it's free.
