The Skoda Karoq<\/a> is losing its 140TSI Sportline 4×4 flagship for model year 2027 (MY27), but you’ll now be able to get many of its optional extras with more affordable members of the mid-size SUV lineup.<\/p>\n

For MY27, the Karoq will be offered exclusively in 110TSI Select and 110TSI Sportline trims, priced at $38,990 and $44,990 before on-road costs respectively \u2013 both up $500 on MY26.<\/p>\n

There have been no changes to standard equipment, but the options list has changed slightly.<\/p>\n

The Karoq serves as Skoda’s Toyota RAV4<\/a> rival in Australia, though at 4390mm long and 1841mm wide on a 2638mm wheelbase, it’s significantly shorter than its mid-size SUV rivals \u2013 so much so that the closely related Cupra Ateca<\/a> is actually classified in Australia as a small SUV.<\/p>\n

Skoda introduced a slightly larger SUV in Australia last year, the electric Elroq<\/a>, but it may not replace the Karoq as had previously been expected, with local executives expressing a desire for a new-generation Karoq.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It wouldn’t be the first combustion-powered Volkswagen Group model to get a stay of execution and a facelift. Fellow Volkswagen Group brand Seat has facelifted its ageing Arona and Ibiza, which are not sold here and had previously been rumoured to be headed to the chopping block, while Volkswagen will do the same with its existing Polo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Karoq is one of the oldest models in the mainstream mid-size SUV segment, having entered production in 2017 and arrived in Australia in 2018. A facelifted model was launched here in 2022.<\/p>\n

To the end of June, Skoda has delivered just 137 Karoqs in Australia this year, down 48.1 per cent on the same period last year. The electric Elroq has pulled past it, notching 302 deliveries in the same period.<\/p>\n

The Karoq is currently one of the lowest-volume models in its segment, besting only the Peugeot 3008<\/a> (92) and KGM Korando<\/a> (87) among vehicles that have been on sale for the whole year so far. It’s also barely ahead of the ‘small’ Cupra Ateca (110 units).<\/p>\n
