Arresting Development – 2025 Skoda Superb Review
The 2025 Skoda Superb is here, and it’s not just a flashy facelift, it’s a full-blown flag bearer for the endangered species of wagons and sedans – hoorah! In an era where SUVs dominate driveways like ducks at a pond, it’s refreshing to see Skoda double down on what it does best, making big cars […]
Skoda’s done it again – 2025 Skoda Kodiaq review
For me, when the Skoda Kodiaq was first released (several years ago now) it gave a whole new view of the brand and its products. It was sharp looking, clever, dynamic and priced to sell. Well the Kodiaq’s back baby, and they’ve done it again. Skoda’s latest iteration of the Kodiaq is a harmonious blend […]
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. Despite its more urban/city focus it offered its owners ample space and plenty of the brand’s ‘clever’ mantra. Anyway, it’s now had a refresh and Skoda NZ let us take the Sportline out for a while.

Shh-koda – Skoda Superb iV review
The ŠKODA Superb iV plug-in hybrid (PHEV) is the Czech-born brand’s first step into the electrified car melee and what a way to start. Not only is it luxurious and cavernous on the inside, but it’s ultra quiet and very clever (just ask Laura). Plus with around 60km of EV only range, it’ll now get […]
Octavius Maximus: Skoda Octavia RS Review
There has always been something really cool about a hot wagon. The idea of lugging around copious amounts of whatever while snaking your way through bendy bitumen and fast straights has been a compelling proposition for many a moon. This brings us to the latest iteration of the Skoda Octavia RS. The Octavia has been […]
Fits U-in-it – new Skoda KAMIQ review
Czech born vehicle maker Skoda has recently added a new vehicle to its family and now it’s available in New Zealand. The KAMIQ is a crossover that sits perfectly between their wide range of well-respected cars such as the Octavia and Superb and their expanding range of SUVs such as Kodiaq and Karoq. It’s a […]
