The SKODA KAROQ (2017-22) 5DR SUV 2.0 TDI 150 DPFR SS EU6 SE L is a practical, mid-sized family SUV, sitting between smaller crossovers and larger seven-seat models in the UK market. Its raised driving position, five-door layout and useful boot make it an easy everyday alternative to a hatchback. Mycarcheck.com records 247 look-ups covering 80 different VINs, offering a useful snapshot of used-car interest. Checked examples averaged £19,900, 36,000 miles and around 11,000 miles driven yearly; the average keeper count was just under one. These figures suggest many examples are relatively lightly used, though each car’s history should be checked individually. The 2.0-litre diesel suits motorway trips, commuting and family holidays, with performance and fuel-saving potential. SE L equipment adds comfort, while the Karoq’s flexible cabin and manageable size make it easier to live with than SUVs. It is a rival to the Nissan Qashqai and Seat Ateca.
