The Czech carmaker, Škoda recently unveiled some pictures of the exterior of the new Kaniq, a city SUV. Based on the MQB platform of the Volkswagen Group, this SUV will be as large as the Kicks or the Creta, both available in the Indian market. Škoda has now showcased some more pictures of this vehicle, but that of the interior this time around.

It could, given the good demand for SUVs in the Indian market.
A freestanding screen gets a nice line which stands in the field of vision of the driver. This line reflects the lines of the bonnet and also provides an ergonomic shelf for the hand operating the touchscreen. Another optional extra available with the new SUV is a virtual cockpit, which uses a rather large 10.25-inch screen presenting critical information to the driver. The air vents continue until the edge of the doors, adding a sense of space inside the cabin. There are some neat storage spaces carved out near the cup holder and the door pockets appear large enough to carry some additional stuff.
