- New Skoda Kamiq on sale February 6
- Costs from £24,030
- Facelifted version of small SUV
- Tweaked exterior styling
- Choice of revised petrol engines
The Skoda Kamiq has been given a facelift for 2023. This alternative to small SUVs such as the Vauxhall Mokka and Toyota C-HR gets tweaked styling and some updated engines.
The new Kamiq should go on sale in early 2024, with a small price increase over the current car.
New Skoda Kamiq price and specs
The new Skoda Kamiq is slightly dearer than the car it replaces, but only by around £1,200. The brand’s smallest SUV now starts from £24,030, which still places it comfortably below the mechanically-similar Volkswagen T-Roc at £28,365.
There are three trim levels to choose from: SE, SE L and Monte Carlo.
New Skoda Kamiq SE
£24,030 buys you the entry-level Skoda Kamiq SE. This gets you 17-inch alloy wheels, an 8.25-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, LED headlights, rear parking sensors and dual-zone climate control.
New Skoda Kamiq SE L
Stepping up to the SE L will cost you £27,175, and it’s the sweet spot in the range thanks to the added equipment you get. This spec comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, a larger 9.2-inch touchscreen, a 10.25-inch digital driver’s display, interior ambient lighting and rear privacy glass.
New Skoda Kamiq Monte Carlo
Sitting at the top of the range of the Monte Carlo, and it gets a handful of sporty styling upgrades such as a body kit and 18-inch alloy wheels. It also adds a panoramic glass roof, a reversing camera and keyless entry. These added bring the total cost to £29,275.
New Skoda Kamiq design
This is just a facelift for the Skoda Kamiq, so the overall design is pretty similar to the outgoing car. There are plenty of tweaks though to keep this car looking fresh.
The main change up front is the new, slimmer headlights. They still have a split-level design, with the upper part being wider and the main beams in the lower bumper being slightly smaller. The grille is also re-shaped with a wider and more imposing design.
Not much has changed down the side of the car. You’ll still be able to get a sporty-looking Monte Carlo version of the Kamiq with some side skirts and 18-inch alloy wheels. The standard car gets 17-inch alloys.
There are some new tail lights at the rear, with a different LED signature and some curved reflectors underneath. The lower bumper has also been tweaked to give the car a slightly more rugged appearance.
New Skoda Kamiq engines
Electric cars are getting more and more popular, however Skoda hasn’t turned its back on old-school internal combustion power. The new Kamiq is available with a selection of petrol engines.
The entry-level car gets a 1.0-litre three-cylinder unit with 95hp and a five-speed manual gearbox. You can also have a 1.0-litre petrol engine with 115hp and either a six-speed manual or a seven-speed automatic gearbox.

New Skoda Kamiq: how much will it cost?
The new Skoda Kamiq is expected to go on sale in early 2024, however you can expect it to go up in price slightly over the current car. A figure of just over £23,000 is likely.
