斯柯达近日发布了2018款Karoq趣图，该车将于5月18日在斯德哥尔摩发布。从图片看，该车的前大灯上部比柯迪亚克更宽，而底部也进行了改款。车尾的LED尾灯组也采用了新的外观并向上延展至电动行李箱上方。实际上，这些变化很细微，而且原来野帝的时尚感也没有了，即便如此，Karoq在同级车市场仍具备很强竞争力。车厢内采用全数字仪表群，进一步提升了内装档次，另外还提供了电子手刹和抛光黑色装饰件，看起来质感不错。另外，该车无疑将采用车厂最新的信息娱乐系统。LED氛围灯了通过多达10种颜色。该车将提供全轮驱动、七速双离合变速器，而入门级车型则提供前轮驱动和手动变速器。动力系统包括两种汽油引擎和三种柴油引擎，其中包括大众新的1.5升TSI Evo。Karoq内部空间更宽敞，行李箱容积在后排椅背直立情况下为521立升，如果将椅背放平可提升至1630立升。如果需要更大储物容积，可以将后排座椅拿掉，从而将储物容积提升至1810立升，将这款车改装成一辆客货两用车。该车将于今年下半年在欧洲上市。
2018 Skoda Karoq Crossover Partially Revealed In Official Images
To ease the wait until the full debut set for next Thursday in Stockholm, Skoda has decided to drop a series of semi-revealing images with its brand new compact crossover.
From what we are able to see so far, the upper headlights are wider than those of the Kodiaq while the lower ones have been reshaped as well. At the back, the LED taillights are also rocking a new look and extend only onto to the upper area of the electric trunk lid. Indeed, these are subtle changes and the Yeti’s funkiness is no more, but even so the Karoq is already shaping up to be a compelling offer in this hugely competitive segment.
Stepping inside the cabin, we get to see an all-digital instrument cluster representing a premiere for Skoda along with an electric parking brake and those glossy black bits that only look good in press images. Needless to say, the Karoq is getting Skoda’s latest crop of infotainment systems. LED ambient lighting is also noticeable in the adjacent teaser and will be available in 10 different colors.
The VW-owned automaker from Mladá Boleslav is illustrating a model equipped with an all-wheel-drive system and a dual-clutch, seven-speed automatic gearbox, but customers will also be able to get a cheaper Karoq with a FWD setup and a manual transmission. Two gasoline and three diesel engines are going to be offered, including the group’s new 1.5 TSI Evo.
As one would expect from a Skoda, the Karoq will offer plenty of space inside the cabin. The trunk will be able to swallow 521 liters with the rear seats in place and a massive 1,630 liters after folding them down. Should you need even more hauling capabilities, the rear seats can be individually removed to boost cargo capacity to a maximum 1,810 liters after taking all three out to turn the vehicle into a van.
Following its debut on May 18, the Skoda Karoq will go on sale in Europe in the second half of the year.
