The ŠKODA KAROQ has state-of-the-art technology under its bonnet. Five engines – two petrol and three diesel – are on offer. Their capacities are 1.0, 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0 l, while their power output ranges from 85 kW (115 PS) to 140 kW (190 PS). All powertrains use turbocharged, direct injection engines and offer Stop-Start technology as well as brake energy recovery. They are extremely efficient and fulfil Euro 6 emission standards. With the exception of the most powerful diesel, all powertrains are available with a choice of a 6 speed manual transmission or a 7-speed DSG transmission. The 2.0 TDI with 140 kW (190 PS) comes with all-wheel drive and a 7-speed DSG transmission as standard. The 1.5 TSI offers cylinder shutdown as a special feature.

› 1.5 TSI – 110 kW (150 PS), 250 Nm of torque, top speed of 204 km/h, 0-100 km/h in 8.4 seconds, consumption: urban 6.6 l per 100 km, extra-urban 4.7 l per 100 km, combined 5.4 l per 100 km, combined CO2 emissions of 122 g/km
Diesel engines:
› 1.6 TDI – 85 kW (115 PS), 250 Nm of torque, top speed of 188 km/h, 0-100 km/h in 10.7 seconds, consumption: urban 5.0 l per 100 km, extra-urban 4.3 l per 100 km, combined 4.5 l per 100 km, combined CO2 emissions of 118 g/km
› 2.0 TDI – 110 kW (150 PS), 340 Nm of torque, top speed of 207 km/h, 0-100 km/h in 8.9 seconds, combined consumption of 4.4 l per 100 km, combined CO2 emissions of 115 g/km (provisional values)
All figures apply to models with front-wheel drive and 6-speed manual transmission.
› 2.0 TDI – 140 kW (190 PS), 400 Nm of torque, top speed of 211 km/h, 0-100 km/h in 7.8 seconds, combined consumption of 5.3 l per 100 km, combined CO2 emissions of 138 g/km (provisional values)
The official urban and extra-urban fuel consumption data for engines 2.0 TDI with 110 kW and 2.0 TDI with 140 kW are currently not available as the vehicle has not yet gone on sale and therefore Directive 1999/94 EC does not apply.
There are five engines in the compact SUV’s range. The smallest petrol unit offers less cylinder capacity but more power. The 1.0 TSI has three cylinders, produces 85 kW (115 PS) and generates a maximum torque of 200 Nm. The engine impresses with its dynamic power development and a powerful sound. The downsizing increases the efficiency of the engine. This version of the ŠKODA KAROQ accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.6 seconds, attains a top speed of 187 km/h and consumes an average of 5.2 l per 100 km. For power transmission, it uses either a 6-speed manual gearbox or a 7-speed DSG.
The distinctive feature of the 1.5 TSI engine with 110 kW (150 PS) is its Active Cylinder Technology (ACT). This works by switching off the second and third cylinders for a short time when their power output is not needed. The engine therefore runs more efficiently and, depending on the driving style, saves up to 0.5 l per 100 km. ACT is used between 1,400 and 4,000 rpm and up to a speed of 130 km/h. With the 1.5 TSI, the ŠKODA KAROQ sprints to 100 km/h in 8.4 seconds from a standing start, reaches a top speed of 204 km/h and consumes an average of 5.4 l per 100 km. Here, too, there is a choice of a manual 6-speed gearbox or a 7-speed DSG transmission.
All of the diesel engines are turbocharged, direct injection TDIs with four cylinders and four-valve technology. The entry-level variant is the 1.6 TDI with a power output of 85 kW (115 PS) and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. This version of the compact SUV accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.7 seconds, attains a top speed of 188 km/h and consumes an average of 4.5 l per 100 km. The power is transmitted by either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed DSG transmission.
The diesel engine with a cylinder capacity of 2.0 l is available in two power variants. Both versions impress with distinctive smooth running and superior torque. The 2.0 TDI with 110 kW (150 PS) comes with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed DSG transmission. Maximum torque of 340 Nm is achieved between 1,750 and 3,000 rpm. The ŠKODA KAROQ with a 2.0 TDI engine and 110 kW (150 PS) with all-wheel drive and manual transmission accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.7 seconds, achieves a top speed of 196 km/h and consumes 5.0 l per 100 km on average.
The second 2.0 TDI offers a power output of 140 kW (190 PS). The top engine variant is combined with all-wheel drive and a 7-speed DSG transmission as standard. Maximum torque of 400 Nm is available between 1,750 and 3,250 rpm and offers impressive tractability and sporty acceleration. With a 2.0 TDI engine and 140 kW (190 PS) of power, the compact SUV sprints to 100 km/h from a standing start in 7.8 seconds, reaches a top speed of 211 km/h and consumes an average of 5.3 l per 100 km.
