The Skoda Kodiaq is crowned “Tow Car of the Year 2025” by the Camping and Caravanning Club.
It already transports families and luggage with ease, but the new Skoda Kodiaq shows it also has towing capabilities. The Czech SUV has just been awarded Tow Car of the Year 2025 by experts from the Camping and Caravanning Club in the UK.
Tested in its 2.0 TDI 193 hp SportLine DSG 4×4 version, the Kodiaq won in the category of 1,700 to 1,999 kg and then secured the overall title among 35 competitors. This is the eighth time Skoda has won this prestigious award, a record that confirms its expertise in this very specific field.
The tests, conducted at the Horiba-MIRA test track in Warwickshire, subjected each vehicle to a series of rigorous tests: evasive maneuvers, acceleration, emergency braking, and hill starts… The jury also evaluated stability with a trailer, loading capacity, and ease of use of towing systems.
Verdict, the Kodiaq ticks all the boxes: “the Kodiaq offers an excellent balance between driving comfort and towing efficiency. It is stable, responsive, and can carry seven people in remarkable comfort.”
But the Kodiaq was not the only model from the brand to stand out. The new Skoda Elroq, a 100% electric SUV launched earlier this year, was also recognized, winning the category for electric vehicles up to 1,200 kg. A great first for this model.
Skoda, true to its commitment to caravan enthusiasts, offers tow bars as an option across its entire range, including an electrically retractable hitch on certain versions. Perfect for heading off on holiday with peace of mind, whether towing a trailer or caravan.
