Skoda's Kodiaq is to get a new high-spec range-topper, the Kodiaq Laurin & Klement, taking over from the previous top model, the Kodiaq Edition. The L&K will feature a number of luxury improvements over lower-spec variants, such a chromed grille, 19-inch alloys and a panoramic sunroof, with L&K badging throughout. Leather, tech goodies, electronic driver assistants and safety features such as a heated windscreen, top-notch sound and infotainment systems, parking cameras and curtain airbags all abound inside. Every version will feature all-wheel-drive and a 2.0-litre turbocharged engine (three diesels and one petrol). Prices run from £35,945 for the 150hp diesel manual up to £38,095 for the 190hp diesel with a DSG automatic gearbox.
