Compare the Skoda Kodiaq vs Chery Tiggo 8
AI generated from our expert reviews
Choosing between these two family SUVs comes down to cabin refinement and daily usability. In both cars, the light steering makes tight manoeuvres easy, and each has a third row of seats that is better suited to children on long journeys. However, they diverge out on the open road. The Skoda Kodiaq keeps wind and road noise well-contained when cruising on the motorway, whereas you will notice quite a lot of wind and road noise inside the cabin of the Chery Tiggo 8. Their dashboard layouts also differ noticeably. Skoda keeps physical switchgear on the Kodiaq by fitting its multifunctional Smart Dials, while pretty much everything in the Tiggo 8 is routed directly through its touchscreen.
