You"ve heard of the hot hatch. You"ve heard of the hot hatch estate. Now comes the hot hatch SUV, in the shape of the Skoda Kodiaq vRS. The Czech GTI is now a big seven-seater, and the more reproductive among you are no doubt delighted. The more petrolhead-y among you are no doubt perplexed, though. Not only is this a seven-seat performance car that weighs 1.7 tons, but it"s powered by diesel. Think of it has a budget Audi SQ7 and you might just cope, though. Power comes from a 2-litre twin-turbo four-cylinder TDI, its 236bhp being pushed through all four wheels for a circa-6.5sec 0-62mph time and if fairly irrelevant trivia is your thing a 9m29.8s N rburgring Nordschleife lap time. A record for seven-seaters, if such a thing ever needed to exist.
