Fantastic. It would be great to have a bit more battery capacity and a higher DC charging speed.

Very comfortable touring car. The fit and finish are high-quality, practical and well thought-out. Very good driver-assistance systems. In the Sportline trim, the seats are super comfortable with plenty of room for all passengers. Large boot and easily foldable rear seatbacks to expand it. The suspension is tuned for comfort and overall very well balanced. The 150 hp engine runs well and on the highway at 130 km/h is fairly economical (6.3–6.5 liters). In city driving it needs more, however. The automatic shifts flawlessly. We are very satisfied with our Karoq.
