Skoda had launched the 2026 Kushaq facelift a few weeks back, and the new model features a new refreshed design compared to the old model. While the styling is now more modern and elegant with the sporty cues, the Kushaq retains its funky SUV-ish body proportions.

So, in the next story, we compare its dimensions with those of other SUVs in the segment.
