Skoda Kodiaq SUV available with ₹2.5 lakh discount. There's a catch

Skoda Auto India has announced a discount for the Kodiaq SUV. The three-row premium SUV is available with a discount of ₹2.50 lakh. However, the discount is available for a limited time between July 18 and July 24. Also, the discount is available only to the L&K variant of the SUV. Interestingly, this discount was announced right ahead of the new Kodiaq's introduction to the Indian market.

Skoda Auto India has stated on its official website that the offer on the Kodiaq includes a cash discount of ₹2.50 lakh and a few other additional benefits as well. The offers are available exclusively for the L&K variant. Also, the benefits are available across MY23 and MY24 versions of the SUV and VIN with similar timelines.

Interested customers can book the Skoda Kodiaq SUV with the abovementioned discounts across three different exterior colours, namely the Moon White, Lava Blue and Magic Black. This move comes in an attempt to clear the inventory of the Skoda Kodiaq's first-generation model before the second-generation model is launched in India.
