In pricing context, the Kodiaq Select PHEV sits above the Outlander PHEV’s starting price of A$57,290 and below the Cupra Terramar VZe at A$77,990, with other Skoda models like the Enyaq and RS in consideration for the broader lineup.

This is a five-seat, front‑wheel‑drive PHEV due to battery packaging, with standard kit including 19‑inch wheels, heated mirrors, keyless entry, heated front seats, tri-zone climate control, twin wireless charging pads, and a 13.0‑inch infotainment display with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.

Skoda offers a seven‑year/unlimited‑kilometre vehicle warranty and an eight‑year/160,000‑km high‑voltage battery warranty for the Kodiaq PHEV.

Charging supports 11 kW AC home charging and up to 50 kW DC fast charging.

New features at the Kodiaq lineup’s next update include mild-hybrid technology with a front-wheel-drive 1.5‑litre turbo petrol under a separate entry price.

The battery capacity is 25.7 kWh, supporting up to 11 kW AC and 50 kW DC charging, with a WLTP electric range of about 112 km and a combined consumption of around 1.85 L/100 km.

Skoda’s 2026 Kodiaq Select PHEV will start at A$63,490 before on-road costs in Australia, positioning it cheaper than the Kia Sorento PHEV.

The Kodiaq PHEV undercuts the Sorento PHEV on price but does not offer seven-seat practicality; it will be joined in Australia by the Superb PHEV and other Skoda EVs in 2025–26.

Under the hood, it pairs a 1.5‑litre petrol engine with an 85 kW electric motor, delivering a combined 150 kW and 350 Nm and an estimated 0–100 km/h time of 8.4 seconds.

The drivetrain combines a 1.5‑litre turbo petrol (110 kW, 250 Nm) with an 85 kW electric motor (330 Nm), feeding a 25.7 kWh battery for a combined 150 kW and 350 Nm.

An optional Signature Pack adds premium features such as a 360° camera, massage seats, head‑up display, eight‑way power‑massage seats, intelligent park assist and a surround‑view camera for about A$6,500.

The Kodiaq PHEV’s battery packaging limits it to five seats, unlike the petrol seven‑seat variant and the Sorento PHEV.
