ICE CHALLENGE: THE ŠKODA KODIAQ RS AND THE ARCTIC CIRCLE

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

SKODA Italia decided to put the abilities of the sporty #kodiaqrs #SUV to an extreme test. Boasting a 240 PS engine and all-wheel drive, how will the #kodiaqrs stand up to polar conditions – icy surfaces, temperatures of around -20 °C, and a strong headwind?

The #kodiaqrs, like all other versions of the model, is a vehicle guaranteeing a safe ride on unpaved surfaces. That’s how the idea came about to test the #kodiaqrs in extreme conditions by packing it off on an adventurous drive across the Arctic Circle from Rovaniemi in Finland to North Cape (Nordkapp) in Norway and back again.

The challenge required the entire distance to be covered in fewer than 24 hours, with just one concession for the vehicle: studded tyres, which are mandatory in extreme conditions.
