Most Helpful Review

Most Beautiful and powerful car in compact suv segment

It's a very good car, with very good style, looks, interior and exterior design, pure safety, and a very powerful engine. Now, Tata Nexon has a real competitor. Tata Nexon's sales figures should be down due to its awful design, engine, service maintenance, and reliability. Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and Hyundai Vanue sales were also affected although both cars have good quality engines and reliability. Buyers have more options in the Compact SUV segment. Best car in this segment.

The handy one

Very good to drive it's not mine once I drove from my friend's end it felt good and very handy to control the driver felt good and the back seats and good comfortable and well spacious

2025 Skoda Kylaq Track Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali15 Oct 2024

This is the all-new Skoda Kylaq and when I say all-new, it is, in fact, all-new because this car has been developed from the ground up to be Skoda India's first-ever compact SUV.
