Car A
Skoda Kodiaq 2.0 TSI DSG
A seven-seat petrol model that majors on space, practicality, and peace of mind for large families and road trips. It offers strong pace and good value in its segment, but it isn’t a premium or enthusiast pick.

Kia Telluride LX
The Kia Telluride LX is a 7-seat family-focused choice that leans into reliability, safety, and space for large families and road trips. Strong 277 hp performance and a 603-liter trunk help on long hauls, while its 10.6 combined consumption and size are less ideal for dense city use.
