Easy on the envEYEronment – Skoda Enyaq Sportline Coupe review
Not only is the new Skoda Enyaq Coupe good looking, but it’s smart, good for the environment and is a great ‘go anywhere’ companion.

Simply Cl-EV-er – Skoda Enyaq iV 80 review
Following on from the success of their iV plug-ins, Czech-originated car brand Skoda has crossed the great divide into all-electric propulsion with their all-new Enyaq, and what a way to start. Sure it sits at the head of their range in terms of premium pricing but it also ‘clEVerly’ showcases the brand’s move to a […]
Reshtyled and shmarter Karoq – 2023 Skoda Karoq Sportline review
Launched in 2017, the KAROQ was Skoda’s (Shkoda’s) second SUV (after the hugely successful Kodiaq) in their lineup.

The […]

Less Torque, More Action – 2022 Kodiaq RS review NZ
It was early 2019 when we last got behind the wheel of a Skoda Kodiaq RS. Covid hadn’t been invented and we were free to explore the expansive ‘driving’ roads that surround Clevedon in their performance SUV that boasted lapping the Nürburgring in a record breaking time of 9m 29.84 seconds. Anyway, as NZ seems […]

Cop a load of this – Skoda Octavia RS iV PHEV review
Over the past couple of decades, Czech car brand Skoda has gone from being a relatively rare sight on NZ roads to something we see daily (although fingers crossed not the NZ Police vehicles).
