For the interior, Skoda has done the usual sporty car thing of replacing most of the fabric and leather of the standard car with ‘microsuede’ (Alcantara, to you and me) and perforated leather. You can add normal black leather back in as an option.
Otherwise, the vRS’s cabin is the same as on every other Kodiaq. You can find our full review of the rest of the Skoda Kodiaq range here, but in short, it’s easy to use, generally practical and well thought out, and very spacious.
There are more physical controls than other VW group cars, and an appealing design that isn’t just ‘A Screen’. There is a screen, of course, and it generally works as you expect. Quality is generally strong, and the interior is full of practical features, too. You get twin gloveboxes, two wireless charging pads and plenty more storage besides. The rear bench folds in a 40:20:40 pattern, and there’s space under the boot floor to store the luggage cover when you’ve got the third row deployed. If there’s a disappointment inside, it’s the third row, which isn’t as spacious as in a Hyundai Santa Fe, and lacks amenities like air vents and USB ports.
