Skoda Kamiq Facelift

[Allesandu]

Hi there!

Are you look forward to renewal of Kamiq?

[AJ89]

I cannot contain my excitement, I am counting down the days

[Allesandu]

To be honest, it will be tiny changes as it was with Kodiak FL and Karoq FL

😢

[Allesandu]

Are you ready for the 1 August?

Looks like just changing the lights, and reads like some equipment will be available from more expensive cars (which presumably will make it cost more), then getting some other differences like different alloy wheels.

 

To be honest, would prefer a replacement for unreliable MIB 3 than minor tweaks if I was going to buy one.   I might be seen as an oddball, but I prefer my cars to work reliably ahead of shape of lights.

Matrix headlights will be available for Kamiq/Scala 💪

My 2022 Kamiq does have rotary controls for temperature, what it really misses is one for the fan speed!

That's what they've added.

[sussamb]

Ah ok, @SurreyJohnposted differently

[BenNW]

Here's the press image for the new higher spec interior

[xman]

FFS, 2 buttons (horizontally arranged at that) instead of a dial.

 

Better than touchscreen I suppose, but only just. Found a similar horizontal layout in a Kia a pain in the neck, still have to take my eyes off the road.

Really? In that case you'd need to take your eye off the road to turn a dial. If you learn where they are it's like all buttons, reach and press.

Looks like they’ve dropped the heated steering wheel option. A shame - I wouldn’t be without mine.

Hi, I’m interested in the Kamiq SE L trim and comparing the 2023 spec to the 2024 spec the 2024 model seems to have lost a few features, front sensors, rear camera and heated seats…. is this correct? I know the 2024 model has gained some features but I would miss the 3 that it’s lost so may go for the 2023 model.

[BenNW]

Sensors and camera available but are part of the convenience pack I think. 

 

Heated seats are part of the winter pack. 

[Croat]

Here is a first look and a review of the new Selection trim (replacing Style).

 

 

 

[Legin T]

I have the Scala Monte Carlo in Velvet Red coming soon. I would be interested to know what sound system upgrades and sound deadening  you are planning. I was really disappointed you could not opt for an upgraded sound system as is available in other markets.
