The smallest things are always the easiest to lose. Car park tickets for example. A Simply Clever ticket holder clips them neatly to the side of the windscreen, in an obvious place, so you can reach for them when needed. They are also highly visible to anyone inspecting your ticket from outside the car.
Smart technology
The range of safety assists has been expanded to include several new state-of-the-art systems.
Škoda Kodiaq driver safety
Travel assist
Travel assist integrates several systems and functions. When they are interconnected, the car can make driving a lot easier and increase travelling comfort. Once activated, travel assist can automatically stop and restart, keep the car in lane, or follow other vehicles in a traffic jam.
Škoda Kodiaq driver safety
Adaptive lane assist
Lane assist can tell when you stray from a lane unintentionally. The enhanced “adaptive” variant means that the system intervenes in an attempt to keep the vehicle in the selected track within the traffic lane, and the car does not “weave”. The adaptive lane assist system works in conjunction with a camera to recognise lane markings on the road, including yellow lines during roadworks, traffic cones, and other roadside or lane borders.
>Škoda Kodiaq driver safety
Traffic jam assist
Traffic jam assist makes it easier to drive a car in traffic jams. It starts, brakes and turns the car to copy the movement of surrounding vehicles in a traffic jam.
>Škoda Kodiaq driver safety
Emergency assist
Emergency assist reduces risk of an incident if the driver is not feeling well. If adaptive lane assist detects that the driver does not have hands on the steering wheel even after a warning alert, emergency assist is activated, decelerates the car to halt while keeping it in lane and activating the hazard warning lights.
Škoda Kodiaq driver safety
Front assist with predictive pedestrian protection
The front assist is a collision-alert safety system. Faced with an unavoidable collision, it applies the brakes to minimise the consequences. It also performs an emergency stop if a pedestrian or cyclist attempts to cross the path of the car.
Parking has never been easier. Just push the right button.
Škoda Kodiaq comfort technology
Park distance control with manoeuvre assist
The system warns of the potential risk of colliding with obstacles during parking by drawing data from the sensors, the driving parameters, and the steering wheel angle. To avoid those parking situations where you don’t brake in time in response to the distance alerts, the new Kodiaq incorporates manoeuvre assist, a feature that stops the car to avoid collision.
Škoda Kodiaq comfort technology
Park assist
Park assist semi-automatically guides the car into perpendicular parking spaces, and in and out of parallel spots. The system assists you by automatically carrying out optimal steering wheel movements to park within the lines, you just have to accelerate and brake. Park assist can also finish off a parking manoeuvre that has already started.
Škoda Kodiaq comfort technology
Rear-view camera with washer
When reverse gear is engaged, the camera in the tailgate is activated and the image is shown on the infotainment system display. Dynamic guide lines laid over the image show the direction in which the vehicle would go with the position of the steering wheel or indicate when it should be turned.
The industry-leading LED lighting delivers better performance and safety functions.
