- Skoda kushaq problems is what we are going to discuss today and since it's launch Skoda has suffered a lot of complaints and this has not changed much today but is it true that it comes with a lot of problems and these problems are major ones and it could hinder the ownership experience if you are planning to purchase this car?
I drive the Skoda kushaq 1.0 l TSI manual transmission also the all new 1.5 litre TSI dsg gearbox to tell you all about the car this includes the drive performance overall handling balance and the ride quality in rough terrains.
Volkswagen taigun is the other option that you have and this car also is built on the same platform so in terms of safety this car performs really well like other Skoda and Volkswagen cars and in terms of minor accidents Kushaq will keep you safe.
Skoda kushaq is finally here and this is one of the most anticipated cars from the Volkswagen group with the new platform specification for India a lot of things can change for Volkswagen and Skoda in India.
Skoda and Volkswagen have work really hard to reduce the cost of this spare parts that was a major concern for all the previous customers from Skoda and Volkswagen.
Since Skoda Kushaq is specifically made for India a lot of things are robust and designed to handle the rough trains in our country this includes it design which is not very wide to cut through traffic is also make set much easier to handle the car and traffic also the Skoda kusha stands for king in Sanskrit that says a lot about how important the Indian market is for Skoda Kushaq.

hard to find such brutal honesty in car reviews these days. great job dude
Thank you sir, your kind words and support means a lot 😊👍
I am Skoda owner for the past 17 years from Fabia MT (drove 15 years) to Octavia DSG (in its 9th year) and now Kushaq DSG never face any issue with engine gearbox transmission reliability safety and build quality.
I was actually very interested in this video, but you lost me when you brought Seltos again, and again and again………….
Yes. Looks like promoting seltos
Kushaq has cons like any other car but when you drive this beauty you will forget everything. The best driving dynamics in the segment. 5 months completed. Problems faced 0/0.
That would be taigun
Same here.. no issues.. people senselessly talking about AC issues. But I personally found it's AC far better than my previously owned Hyundai and Suzuki cars
@@Examdialogues bro i had ac issue..the cooling was very bad because of tripping. I informed them and they did a free updation which rectified the problem..now it is working good
@@Examdialogues Correct. I find the AC cooling too good enough. Better than many others.
I am a Skoda Kushaq owner for the past 3 months and can honestly say I got a great car . I’m not a light footed driver so I get very low fuel economy but I’m ok with it . I think this car has a timeless design and will age very well with time .
Which engine do you own? 1.0l or 1.5l ?
@@AmarSingh-re6gq 1.0 Style AT
@@mustanggt5713 Are you facing any of the reported AC cooling issues?
@@manishdhamankar8198 Compared to the Hyundai Grand i10 I had earlier, the AC in my Kushaq is not as powerful but is not bad at all . I wouldn’t call it a problem at all . It takes longer to cool the cabin and I’m ok with it .
Can you suggest me 1.5 automatic is good to buy ?
Your opinion is respected bro as it is yours.. does not matter. Negative points were repeated and were personal not generic. Ex: I see kushaq as mini suv in some angles but again that does not change the fact . I have fiesta ZXI petrol, and still feel the build quality is way more than cars nowadays. But as I am planning to buy a new car I can’t help but buy. It’s same with food, craft and every other things, quality declines.
I am owning the car last yr and this is most honest review
As you mentioned about resale value.
I am using VW polo since 11years,
As we expect 10% depreciation per year now it costs Nothing now and even I didn't expect now even if gone to scrap i won't mind, but over these 11 yrs this car given immense driving pleasure which is worthless.
It's my view but i don't buy car for resale value i buy it for my good driving experience.
Am an Ambition MT owner last one month and this review really matching my feelings. Thank you for a sincere review👍
Very honest, real-world opinions.
Will help a viewer decide about a car knowing all issues it has.
The only irritant in this video is the head-mounted camera which moves around too quickly for comfortable viewing.
4.3
Offenly I drive long distance, recently traveled by Kushaq 1.0 MT from ooty to Bellampally approx 1100km, The performance is excellent, road handling between speed 100 to 120 Km is excellent , Traction control working fine also provide audio and visual indicators on bad road. In my opinion is excellent compact SUV for highway and city as well..
regarding bootspace , practically it will accommodate more stuff then creta
The feeling of 1.5 gets too low that you feel that it would cutoff is because the technology shuts down 2 cylinders automatically to improve efficiency
Instead of the owner driving for 3 to 4 years and then finding his/her car is no good like suspension, ratting sounds, squeaky sounds etc, better to disclose it upfront at a holistic level and save valuable hard earned money for Indians.
You are doing a great job.
Go ahead and RIP them
Open.

Great bro.. i was planning for skoda khushaq but ya would switch my thoughts .. thanks great job
What are your other options?
Would suggest you to still keep this car as an option.
It is good
Impressive review, very honestly covered almost every aspect of this car. I own Skoda Kushaq and I can resonate with everything you mentioned. Very keen observation and genuine feedback.!! Respect for your opinion as well. :) Thumbs up to you bro, keep it up!
Thank you so much sir
I am driving Kushaq for the last two months. I don't think any other car can compete. Has great fuel economy, got 21 km without ac on a 4 and 2 lane tolled highway in Bihar. Can't complain!
which variant is it?
Sir, you got a 21 at what average speed?
Average speedo told me was 48
Active peace. Only 600 produced, at 9.99 ex showroom
@@mukulsinha5384 😊
Really an honest and detailed video. 👍👍
i was almost ready to buy kushaq but your video made me a bit confused now. 😇😇
Agree with almost every post good and bad. Except design. Design is what it scores over its competitors.
Wanted to know you drove the manual or the automatic version
Great feed back I m planning to buy one and your video has been very helpful to what to expect. Keep up the good job buddy’s
As a first time buyer, I watched multiple reviews from ex VW buyers and all of them have complained about the drop in quality in Kushaq and Taigun.
Been said that, as a new buyer who doesn't have any base reference, 7-9 months waiting in Kia and Hyundai is a big No No for most of us. Also some Hyundai showrooms are running a scam of pushing customers to buy 1-1.5 lakhs of accessories to reduce the waiting period. In my case they even refused to give the test drive. Why will a customer buy a car in the Rs 15-20 lakh segment without a test drive. I found Maruti's positioning much better with 2-3 months of wait but with much better showroom experience.
Good point raise. Though I am a Škoda lover. Owned Laura on 2013. But your perception is clear
AC review, is it for 1L or 1.5L?
I have heard that AC of 1L is not up to the mark, especially for peak summers in Delhi?
So the global NCAP gave it 5 out of 5..
You were saying something about the built quality??????
Why so-called-reviewers starts comparing VW Brand cars with their old models.
I guess in current scenario, the best analytics would be to compare these models with other brand's models offered in this same price range.. No one can go back in the past to get the previously available quality products (atleast new ones)
People are confused as to which is better product in current time - Like Creta/Seltos/Astor/Kushaq/Taigun/ (or upcoming ones) Hyryder/Vitara (Compare only Petrol if Kushaq and Taigun is in the list as they are offered in Petrol only).
A typical family user doesn't quantify stuffs so minutely, all they want is
Hassle free life
Smooth ride
Good Family Comfort
Safety
Mileage (This is something that vary from person to person)
Interior Quality is something you can't quantify .. all that a typical under can differentiate is the FIT and FINISH .. so focus on that
Looks (Matters to family esp kids)
Minor initial lags are rather good as no one want that initial power in a bumper to bumper traffic leading to mishappenings. A typical family user won't think of him/her self as michael schumacher. PERIOD !
Thank you for sharing your views 😊👍
Let me tell you brother I am using Skoda for the last 5 yrs and have never faced any issues either with reliability or service. The folks are good if you treat them with respect. Normally a customer walks in with lots of anger and in such cases they would behave otherwise. As far as safety is concerned this car has been rated for child and adult safety at 5 no other car in that segment has got that rating. As far as timeless design is concerned it is still a very good design when compared to other brands that just give u cosmetic looks and then you find that the tail lights don’t work after a certain time. I would urge anyone interested in European cars to go for it. As far as safety is concerned companies now have shed some weight yet maintained the integrity of the car. One can’t say it is not of the same build quality as the ones earlier. These are my views and I have owned mutilple cars and by far Skoda is the best car I have owned and value for money in my opinion.
I respect your opinion and an outstanding video mate 👌.
Straight forward review which I totally liked.
Would love to hear your 2 cents on Grand Vitara as well as compared to its competitors like creta, seltos etc.
Thank you sir 😊 Il post it soon
I too
What was brutally honest review kudos 👏
Very Good review However, all brakes are not disc brakes. Rear brakes are drum brakes.
One more mistake, around 4.49 minute, he said it's 3 cylinder but the car he talking about 1.5 litre engine comes with 4 cylinder, only 1 litre comes with 3 cylinder
That was a mistake from my end and messed up while I was speaking about both the engines...Apologies
With utmost respect I would like to disagree with you.
1. Looks are subjective.
2. I think recent 5 star safety ratings clears your doubts about safety.
3. Boot space is practically adequate. The number doesn't tell you everything. Take a look at MG Astor. It has boot space of 420 litres, but practically you cannot keep anything and I mean it. 1 trolley and you are done.
4. Reg. Mileage I cannot comment, I think you would be a better judge but I assume 13-15 in city and 18-19 in Highways.
Thanks for sharing your opinion with us 🙌😊
I am using since 28 aug 2021. My car is automati mid variant I didn't face stopping problem so far. So far so good.
.
Awesome Car .. looks are subjective and what is the your definition of timeless design.. keep aside the negatives , flawless car and half baked info like parts are linked while replacing them and it will take blah blah.. ..just go for it ..I'm loving every bit of my beast ...
Glad you are loving it ..wishing you great memories with your car ..drive safe 👍
@@autocritic thank you dost
Please let me know the priority points to be considered before purchasing a car for a middle class person/purchaser in personal usage ( 80% City and 20% off roading on an average ) with approximate average of 7000 kms per year
Detailed explanation in very easy language..!! good luck with your channel.
I wish to know what important things to be considered first in a car with personal & family usages
Obviously a mid sized compact SUV
No major problem with my beautiful kushaq . I love to drive this car .
Good job 👍🏾 nice car I am using no any problems no ac issue average 22 on highway Appreciate your feedback
Thank you sir for your kind words and sharing your experience
i have a kushaq style 1.0
in city 12-13 kmpl
on highway 17-18 (rough driving)
21-23 kmpl light feet driving
1.5 engines may not give this much
Thank you for sharing sir
Perfect, am having it too
Planning to buy the 1.0 top end variant. What do you think of it? I’m comparing it to Astor.
@@tejasthegame Go for kushaq you will not be disappointed
Good
few let downs in kushaq were 1) Window noise while moving it up down, makes it feel like 90s car, 2) no skoda horn 3) cabin noise, from doors and dashboard
As a skoda owner, looking forward whether Zac Hollis will leave India 🇮🇳🇮🇳???
if a karnatka person says that ac is ok, wont say it chills but its ok, means its not good enough for delhi kind of weather, delhi peaked 49 degrees last summer, so clearly this car is not suitable for delhi like hot places during summer
The one you are driving / mentioned here is 1L or 1.5L ???
I got Kushaq ambition 1.0 mt variant today. I am facing vibration issue on the arm rest and steering as well. Did any one face this issue ?
Great and honest review.. also well placed commentary
Hi,
It doesn't have all 4 disc breaks.
I liked the video, the review is honest. We have seltos in my family and I wanted to buy a car which is more compact suv than seltos. I was impressed with the design Kushaq has, for me it’s a very balanced car, I knew before going for a test drive that this car is smaller than seltos so I thought of taking a test drive of this car. When I entered into the car, I felt the quality of the material used for interior is not at all good. As I have mentioned we own seltos already and the variant is htx+ so it was my natural response to compare kushaq’s interior with the seltos and there I was very much disappointed with kushaq. The sales person asked me to close the door and listen to the sound and feel the weight of the door, to be very frank, I could feel the the door is heavy but again when the door touches the body of the car the sound it produces a clattering sound which I feel is not good for a car which costs 15 lakhs. I drove 1.0 litre style variant manual and I felt the sound of the engine was too much in the cabin and with this sound I can’t go on a long trip with this car. That was more disappointing than the interior material quality of the car.
I saw multiple reviews and what I observed is people are just talking about only it’s build quality and it’s handling and driving experience. Owners are complaining a lot about small small things but still they just want to praise the car may be just because they have spent 15-20 lakhs on it and they just want to accept that it’s the best because it’s build quality is better than other cars. I feel But after spending this much amount no one wants tiny problems to irritate us every now and then.
Seltos and creta, except in terms of build quality, are much better option than kushaq and also it’s not like they (seltos and creta) are very poor in driving and handling. I would say kushaq is ahead of seltos And creta only in terms of build quanlity but overall (mileage, service, interior quality, driving experience and handling) Kia seltos and Hyundai creta are better than kushaq.
Vento, Polo, Vento, Polo..Would do better if references were made to current cars in the market
Thoda negtively biased opinion lagta hai.build quality is solid ,engine is powered adequately.Gadi ko achha bolna hai Lenin Bol nahi pa rahe hai😁😁😁I was forced by friend to take test drive of kushaq,and I was amazed.Talking about boot space it carries more luggage than creta.
Agreed!
& yes, it definitely carries more luggage than the Creta
Bang on review!
Feel exactly the same on all aspects.
Nicely you explained,but is there any problem arising in half way driving or suddenly engine breakdown while driving,becoz i booked Skoda classic variant.please suggest.
Mene skoda kushaq 1.5 MT purchase kari hai April 2023 mai and mai bahot khush hu acha hua creta ya koi aur car buy nahi kari bas dekhne mai thodi chhoti lagti hai but undar space theek thaak hai jo bhi kushaq lene ke liye confuse ho raha hai lelo bhai regret nahi hoga ek solid build powerful car hai
On road price when you purchased?
@@alfafincorp 17.3 MT 1.5 Ambition
If kushaq is not a practical can then which is a car (practical car) you prefer in india under 15lakh?
CRETA
Always respect your views
Thanks bro. Very well explained. 🙏
Which one is better Jeep compass 2.0 limited or kushaq
It has 2 disk in front only & rear brakes are drum & 1 ltr doesn't have cylinder deactivate only 1.5 is providing this amezing engineering. Please don't share wrong informations.
This is a super open heart review Thankyou 👍
Thank you so much for your kind words ...stay blessed 🙏
Bhai dono seltos aur ye chalaai hai bahut difference hai. Kushaq ki feel alag hai.
I didn't find AC as good as other cars
One more thing u will get many more subscribers and likes as long as u r honest in your work.
I was thinking of same 1.0MT
But I think I need to reconsider my decision
What will be options for it.
Bhai! I stumbled upon this video and I’m lucky I’m here. I have a booked Kushaq lately - what are your thoughts on EPC issue and cabin rattling thing?
Kushaq is a wonderful car and you will have an amazing time with it. Congratulations 🥳
Sir please suggest slavia or breeza no problem in sedan or suv
what a brutally biased review.. u r promoting a unsafe cars like Kia Hyundai against a great built cars like Skoda, VW. BTW any car may get problem anytime.
I am sure you did not watch the video..you must love vw skoda cars..I mentioned in terms of safety kia hyundai are terrible and in terms of reliability they r better..pls watch the video again
@@autocritic i didn't feel like watching further once u said buy Kia cars.. btw the reliability means? in ur terms.. unsafe cars are more reliable?
Brother I never said buy kia cars..you should not watch a video half heartedly and comment ....assuming somethng and commenting is a waste of time for both of us..hope you understand..take care
Why are there AC tripping issues ? Has it been resolved now ?
No
I think so I recently bought kushaq no tripping issue it's been 1600+ kms clocked. I don't face any issues so far
Seltos lover giving review about German, practically this is way better than Seltos...and about safety, it has 5 star rating!!
How do u call seltos lover and vw hater, which point makes u feel that way?
People here in general are happy with the bells and whistles. Even if the rest of the essentials are non existent! Skoda anytime over the Korean cousins.
You are talking about 2022 lots. Come about 2023 lots boy. I have driven Skoda Kushaq and would say super car.
Have you seen the build quality of Seltos?? Its the worst Build car after Marutis !
How can you keep on referring to Seltos from time to time?
its clear you are NOT Adept enough to comment on cars if you don't have a Basic Idea, I mean you are comparing things which do not compare in any way !
Boot Space Chota hai? WOW ! Bhai Be educated, you do Not go by Boot space in Litres, you practically put suff in and check, that is how an auto critic does RnD.
Kia Seltos ! LOL this is our Auto Critic fellas !
PS : Im not a skoda fanboi in any way, And All due respect, Kudos to your opinion, Many valid points have been mentioned.
Apke hisab se long term car rakhne k liye kushaq sahi rehega ya slavia
Outstanding review ever I have seen..Bhayya aap xuv 300 kaa long review banaiye na please.
Ok sure
Bang on the points . One correction any of the variants doesn't come with all wheel disc brakes. Only front wheel disc brakes.
Thank you sir for your support 🙏 Apologies for the mistake I already mentioned this in the previous comment ...stay safe 😊
Safety me Kia stand nai karti iske saamne. Mere pass dono cars hain. And about service Mai bata dun ghar se leke jaate hai aur wo laake dete hain
I have 1.0 ltr engine, Giving me 16-18 mileage on the higway within one month of purchase. It might increase over the time as well as after the first service. So fingers crossed and expecting more.
I am happy with it in terms of mileage so far
Hows the air conditioning brother?
@@rohitg81 its good. No issues in 2023 kushaq
6:35 Brother, not all four are disc brakes. Front disc and Rear drum brakes
It dosent have all full disk brakes.
Nice and honest review 👍
Sahi m Kushaq m all disc breaks hai... Pr manual m only front m hi disc and rear drum break hai
FYI..MQB A0 IN products are 40% more stiffer than older products like rapid polo etc said by zac hollis itself.
U r doing really good.
Is it promotion video for Seltos?
Great boss for speaking your mind. I too did not find the door "thud" very impressive. 3 year old Polo has a better thud.
Good review but felt like...cons were repetitive...if your remove all these repetitive points then the length of the video would also comes down to 15 mins easily.
@auto critic sir, aap is video me kia kia kar rahe hai, kya me kia seltos diesel base le lu 6 airbags ate hai.
Sir me kia ke baare is liye bol rha tha kyun ki Kushaq me main competitor Kia seltos hai..but safety ko leke mein kisi ko bhi kia seltos recommend nahin krunga
Good and impartial review.
AC/BC/music/hard plastic and all ki problem solution ke lie koi bhi zero rating car utha lo.
Kushaq Engine/Handling/Overall comfort me best hai.
Engine off point is true … 👍🏻
Suv300 lena chahiye ki skoda kushaq lena chahiye
Sir Mg astor car leni hai kesi hai
You forgot about its 5* safety ratings .. Its a pity that public in India is still buying seltos and creta which scored 3* and body integrity of those are unstable in the crash test...
Very True
Good Review. Please review VW Virtus as well.
Global ncap 5 h bro saftey m purana purana ky kar rhe ho
Sir 1.5 Ltr is 4 cylinder engine and not 3 cylinder. its 1.0 Ltr engine is 3 cylinder
I like to hear the bitter truth, thanks 🙏
Pratically Boot space is best in this segment
How much mileage you have got?
Boot Space, dont go on numbers. It actually fits more items than a Creta
Nice analysis
GNCAP 5 star rating safest suv india
Seems like this is a review of seltos
