Skoda Karoq Leasing

Skodas are renowned for their practicality and the Karoq is no exception. The boot measures 521 litres as standard, but the clever VarioFlex seating that features on SE L and Edition models changes everything. The system allows the rear seats to slide back and forward independently, freeing up 588 litres of storage space. That makes the Karoq much more spacious than a SEAT Ateca or a Mazda CX-5. And because the VarioFlex seats can be removed from the car altogether, you can have up to 1810 litres of boot space in ‘2-seat’ mode.

With all 5 seats up, there’s plenty of room for adults to travel in comfort. Fitting 4 will be no problem, and you can get 5 in if you’re friendly. Children will have acres of space to stretch out in and the options list even offers entertainment solutions. You can have special tablet holders that allow kids to watch their favourite TV shows on the move, while some models come with airline-style folding tray tables on the backs of the front seats.

The Karoq engine range is very efficient, so no version will be too expensive to run. The basic 1.0-litre, 110hp engine is capable of returning something around 45mpg, while the 1.5-litre, 150hp engine will manage something in the low 40s. Even the thirstiest engine – the 2.0 TSI 190hp petrol – will return around 35mpg on the official test.

The 116hp 2.0-litre diesel is the most efficient choice, returning well in excess of 50mpg. But the best balance of performance and economy is found in the 150hp diesel, which returns 53.3-57.7mpg on the official economy test. If you go for an automatic transmission or the 4x4 system, that figure will fall to something in the high 40s.

Company-car drivers may be disappointed to learn there’s no plug-in hybrid, but the low emissions of the 116hp diesel make it relatively cheap to run. Choose that engine and you could pay 29% in Benefit-in-Kind tax.

Yes. Skodas are known for their reliability these days and the Karoq continues that new tradition. The mechanical and electrical components are well proven across the Volkswagen Group, and there are no horror stories. The 3-year warranty should give you some extra peace of mind.

That depends on whether you lease a Skoda Karoq with VarioFlex seating. Standard on SE L and Edition models, but optional on SE and SE Drive versions, the system allows the back seats to slide forward, freeing up extra boot space. Without it, you get 521 litres of luggage space, but with it you get 588 litres. VarioFlex also allows you to remove the back seats altogether, providing more than 1800 litres of carrying capacity.

The entry-level Karoq is the SE, which comes with everything you really need. But you can have more if you go for the SE Drive or SE L models. If you want a sporty look, the Sportline is the Karoq for you, while those seeking more luxury should lease a Karoq Edition.

Yes, front and rear parking sensors are standard across the Karoq range. A reversing camera is also included with all but the entry-level model. And the SE L and Edition versions come with a 360-degree ‘Area View’ camera that gives you a top-down view of the car and its surroundings.

The Karoq is incredibly spacious, so it’s easy to carry people, luggage or both. There’s a massive boot and the cabin feels airy and roomy. Rear passengers will have plenty of head- and legroom, and you can just about fit 3 across the rear seats on short journeys. It’s more comfortable with 2 back there, though.

In pretty much every area, the Karoq is one of the best SUVs you can lease. It’s as spacious as anything in its class, it drives well and it’s well equipped. The quality is brilliant and the ride comfort is good. There’s also plenty of onboard technology and Skoda has even made this SUV good to look at. What more can you ask for?
