Skoda Kodiaq 2024 - Is This Your Best Effort? (ENG) - Test Drive and Review

They should give you a Tesla for the free advertising 😂.

How much do I want it? LOTS!!! We only get regular hybrid here in the US but it’s still definitely on my short list despite your ambivalence 🤣

I've owned three Hondas, and liked them, but they've gotten too greedy. I've just switched to Hyundai. Much better value.

I don't want it. Nice looking but very expensive for a Honda. We don't get the PHEV here in Canada. This kind of gives that vibe, my car is like a fridge for me.

Honda takes the absolute piss when it comes to pricing, and the CR-V e:PHEV is a prime example, priced here in the UK at £53,995.

I’ll stay with my bi-turbo diesel 1.6 CR-V as long as possible thank you. Superb car apart from excessive tyre noise and wipers that, in the CR-V always have a motor in the cab that screams like a tortured kitten. The current models lack a diesel, let alone a diesel hybrid and just cost too much. I’d buy a Kia or Hyundai these days rather than a Honda and judging by their dwindling sales I surmise that most people feel the same

Thanks for informing us about the speed limit alert beep. These things need to be on a switch next to the starter button.

CR-V is an alternative for the RAV4. As far as I know, Honda is slightly slower, less economical and more expensive, but slightly roomier and more comfortable. It will get its owners.
Inside the Honda portfolio, I consider HR-V being a ruined Jazz and CR-V is another step in this direction. Let's say ruined Civic. But that is general SUV problem. Kids to school? I wish to see Honda Odyssey HEV in Europe.

Good review.

Just ordered the Advanced tier. Even if it looks like it has a lot of competition, it really doesn't. Sportage/Tucson are smaller, strange looking and lower quality overall. Tiguan/Kodiaq don't have the same level features, offer diesel engines in 2024 and have the same prices. X-trail is also strange looking and doesn't have same level features. XC60 is more expensive, first run build and offers 3.3 diesel (ridiculous). CX60 is more expensive and not updated in ages (Volvo cares only about electric cars now). So, really if you want a nice big SUV, with a modern engine and all the features, there is nothing better under 60k. You can go for a SH BMW X3 but you still pay 45k for a 4-5 years old car with no these many features.

Plug in - NOPE ❗️👎🏻

Expensive but you’re paying for the technology under the hood which is undoubtedly bulletproof

Honda now make overpriced & the ugliest cars in the world ! They have lost the plot !

I would buy it, but direct injection....nah

Phuk the EU and their stupid speed beeps!

They gonna sell like 8 of these in Europe. Great car, bad price...😢 and that's coming from a happy Honda Crv gen 3 owner!

Looks like a Mazda CX60 clone, but a lot uglier. Almost 60 Grand for this flying turd ? This is insulting ! Good review though.

Interesting video. I like the Honda CR-V a lot. It is a good car. But the price, here in the UK, is over £54K. This is ridiculous. Rivals from Kia, Hyundai and Toyota offer better value for money. As you say, the Tesla Model Y can be purchased for less.

The last bit was spot on. We just bought a new Tesla Model Y dual motor for less than 30k Euro with incentives in Colorado. We considered other cars, but in 2024, Tesla is the value brand. 😂 I would only buy a CR-V for 10k less. We also only spend about 60 euro on electricity a month even though we drive 3000 km per month! A PHEV is the worst of both worlds and costs more too!

It looks almost like my 3rd gen Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV GT from 2020. Too bad the ground clearance is 16 cm and there's no AWD. The new gen Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is just a few months away. I hope you will be able to review it. It's a 7-seater ;)

Where is the test of Ford Puma? No one has tested it out off road...

CRV is a good size and well screwed together. Latest pricing is a joke though. There has to be massive discounts for this car to sell at volume.

Too bad that this suv made in Alliston ON near Toronto is not made and sold as phev here

Marek - don't stop doing what you doing, you're awesome.
Secondly - from the back it looks like a mix between the Volvo's w the high taillights and the new BMW's w the angular things, no?

I have been using 2 different CRVs since 1012. Very satisfied. Now interested phev since EVs are not making over 500km easily. They say it does but actual test still says 350+. Therefore I am interrested with crv phev . Your video is the best i have ever seen for months. Very precise and to the point. Although i have been watching many videos for months, still clarify many points in your video. Thank you very much for your time and effort.

Love the fact Honda provides the fuel consumption when the battery is depleted. I'm sick of all the 0.8-1.2l / 100 km ranges that other brands brag with.
I also wonder what the 100+ km range PHEVs quote for consumtion. 0l/100km??

Love the review, plugin EV CRV starts at €68k in dear old Ireland 😮. The new Land Cruiser will likely be €100k, I kid you not…..

I would love to own this crv but it is very expensive, over 60k euro. I cant afford 2,5 years salary for a car.

Great video. In your opinion which would be the correct price for this CRV?

Toyota is chosen by those people who are not interested in the interior and exterior of the car, that is, the car will move them from point A to B. Honda is a much more progressive choice in every way! You won't like a Toyota after a Honda, and a Honda after a Toyota is a much more enjoyable driving experience.. Toyota lovers aren't looking for fun to drive, It's just a means of transportation.

When compared to the Toyota RAV4, this CRV is far behind in every aspect.

For me a deal-breaker is the non sufficient adjustment range of the seat and steering wheel...as a rather large driver I find not an optimale driving position...the current Skoda Kodiaq e.g. has a much wider range of adjustment... obviously the Kodiaq was designed with larger drivers in mind...not so the CRV.

BRING THIS CAR TO THE UNITED STATES. COME ON HONDA FOR GODS SAKE.

Review is a bit biased against it, Ihave I one , its better in every way than the last one. Everything is refined and better, some a little, some a lot

On my 2022 Prius you can turn off the speed recognition while the car is moving. 4 clicks though so still super annoying

I'm test driving one of these. It's a nice car, but it is 10K euros overpriced. Or 15K maybe. If you buy it you're crazy.

Here the Honda is still around 10K euro cheaper than a Tesla model Y long range.

Great video, just buying the new CRV will have it in 3 weeks time can't wait, I tried Kia Sorento but the sales exec tried to tell me that it could tow my 1.4 kg caravan and I signed their contract to find out two days later the 2024 version can't tow more than 1010 kg and the concessionaire has given me sheer hell trying to cancel in ST Lo France unbelieveable hassle this is the type of sales people from the 1980's disgusting! Mazda a beautiful car but smaller in the boot and feels tighter inside and everything is extra, the Honda is an amazing deal. Just sold my 2016 Honda CRV Exclusive Navi at an amazing price.

That's an extremely slow 0-100 km/hr (62mph) time vs. the rav4 prime

Any owner of CRV PHEV here

CRV PHEV vs Toyota Rav 4 Prime PHEV

jprdl ale przetlumaczyli treyb jadzy SAVE jako ZAPISZ LOOOOL chyba chdzilo im raczej o tryb oszczedny.....

I think you can’t look only to the costs of buying. Also the operatingcosts are important. And then the picture is much more positiv.

$59,900 for the top spec of a non-luxury brand. What a joke!
