Most helpful review

Skoda Kushaq Active model review

Driving experience of the vehicle is excellent. The engine is designed with ultimate power which makes especially road trips to Hill stations more enjoyable. The mileage of the vehicle on a highway is between 18 to 18.5 km/l based on my driving experience at speeds of 80 to 100 km/h. Boot space and leg space of the vehicle are sufficient to make the journey more comfortable for the family.
