We have the first glimpses of the new Škoda Kamiq compact urban SUV. This new car continues to use the Czech manufacturer’s new design language and includes a bunch of new-age features.
Exterior Design
The new Škoda Kamiq seems to get a powerful yet futuristic look to at, with a wide, upright radiator grille that sits at the end of a sculpted bonnet. The lines of the car flow smoothly, giving it an elongated feel that fits quite well with a similarly fashioned roof-line. Up front, the car gets a two-part headlight design, where daytime running lights sit above the main headlamps.
We see a high bonnet, large wheels, and a diffuser; all which point to generous ground clearance. Balanced proportions and clean surfaces seem to be the order of the day, combining the future with the timeless less-is-more philosophy. The rear gets a C-shaped, tail-lamp design and will have the Škoda branding emblazoned on the back rather than the usual logo.
Cabin and Interior Design
Now Skoda have released another teaser image of the crossover and this times compact crossover’s interior. The Kamiq’s cabin looks very similar to the Skoda Scala, and comes with an optional 10.25 inches fully-digital driver’s instrument cluster, a large touchscreen display and LED ambient lighting. The side air vents extend into the doors, visually enhancing the spacious feel of the car.
The Škoda Kamiq is slated to be showcased at the Geneva Motor Show that will take place from 5-17 March this year. It will be interesting to see the vehicle in the flesh as it does seem to be a rather good looking machine.
