Skoda car reviews

Matt's trip to picturesque Austria also included a drive in the new Skoda Epiq EV, the smallest of the company's four electric SUVs and a vehicle related to the Cupra Raval. There's a short embargo on driving impressions, so tune in on September 13 to find out what he thinks of this important new car for Skoda.

It has been a long while since we've driven an example of the Skoda Kamiq, so the addition of a new trim level gave Shane an excuse to revisit the smallest SUV the company makes. It's not actually that small, and it's well capable of being used on the motorway, even if it is a little loud. Somewhat surprisingly, it drives better than the Skoda Scala hatchback, and it has a big boot and decent quality throughout. Some buyers still want such simplicity - this is petrol-powered and has a manual gearbox. It's the car the new Epiq EV is set to compete with for buyer attention.
