Skoda Kodiaq Lounge Launched at ₹39.99 Lakh: Premium 5-Seater Entry-Level SUV

The Skoda Kodiaq Lounge 5-seater model is offered in three color schemes: Moon White, Magic Black, and Graphite Grey

Skoda Auto India has increased its Kodiaq selection by adding a new Lounge model at the entry level. The new grade, priced at Rs. 39.99 lakh (ex-showroom), lowers the entry point into the brand’s flagship SUV, making the Kodiaq more accessible to a wider audience while still offering a long list of premium features, as stated here.

Key Details

5-Seater Configuration with Premium Interior Features

The 2025 Skoda Kodiaq Lounge variation is only available in a five-seat configuration, as opposed to the standard model’s seven seats. Customers can select from three exterior color finishes: Moon White, Magic Black, and Graphite Grey, while the interior includes a variety of high-end features like as a 10.4-inch touchscreen system.

Comfort and Convenience Enhancements

A set of 18-inch alloy wheels, rear blinds, a two-spoke multifunctional steering wheel, smart dials, matte dark chrome exterior finishes, roof rails, a three-zone automatic climate control system, cruise control, drive modes, USB-C charging ports, and a 10.25-inch instrument cluster are a few more features that buyers will receive.

Target Audience and Engine Details

Skoda is obviously targeting customers who want the Kodiaq badge and its premium credentials without going over budget, as the Lounge has a starting price that is slightly less than Rs. 3.75 lakh less than the Sportline and more appealing in terms of pricing than the L&K. It also uses the same 2.0L turbo petrol engine with a DSG.

Missing Features Compared to Higher Trims

Although it is about Rs. 3.75 lakh less expensive than Sportline and almost Rs. 6 lakh less expensive than top-spec L&K, there are undoubtedly some omissions when compared to the more expensive trims. The 360-degree camera, intelligent park assist, illuminated grille, virtual tailgate pedal, driver drowsiness monitoring, and Canton sound system are all absent from the Lounge.

Price Comparison Across Kodiaq Range

These missing amenities will only be available on the Sportline and Laurin & Klement models for individuals who choose the ultimate luxury experience. Lounge is now priced at Rs. 39.99 lakh, Sportline is at Rs. 43.76 lakh, and Laurin & Klement is at the top of the list at Rs. 45.96 lakh (all ex-showroom). These are the latest prices for the Kodiaq range.

Safety and Technology Features

Wireless mirroring is supported by the infotainment screen, and other features and technologies are available, including hydraulic brake assistance, 9 airbags, anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control, electronic brakeforce distribution, motor slip regulation, anti-slip regulation (traction control), electronic differential lock, rear brake support, motor coupled brake, etc.

PPX Saying

The launch of the Skoda Kodiaq Lounge at ₹39.99 lakh makes the premium SUV more accessible to buyers looking for a balance of luxury and practicality. While it misses out on some high-end features from the upper trims, its competitive pricing, refined 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, and comfortable 5-seater layout make it a strong entry point into the Kodiaq lineup. With its sleek design and essential features intact, the Lounge variant could appeal to urban families who prioritize value along with Skoda’s solid build and driving dynamics.
