UPDATE AT END: Just upgraded for a Passat Alltrack to the 2021 scout. I've had it for nearly 3 weeks now. The car is very roomy, suspension is firm and a little noisy (although I have the 19inch wheels which has a lot to do with it) but overall I'm pretty happy with it. At the last minute Skoda decided not to release the car with DAB or key personalization for some reason. The MY20 Scout doesn't have a factory towbar in Australia but the MY21 does (I'm waiting on ADR compliance to have the dealer fit it) . My only real concern is the fuel consumption. I'm averaging 12.3l/100km which is nowhere near it's stated figures. I drive to work (8 minutes) and pick up my daughter on the way home so I don't travel much. In comparison, my Volvo XC70 weighed 2 tonnes, had a bigger petrol engine and returned about the same figures. The Passat was diesel and averaged 8.8l. I know driving style is a major factor, but my style is consistent so I'll be keeping a close eye on the usage. UPDATE 24/03/2021 I'm still happy with the car but the fuel economy is a joke. On a full tank I get just over 500km to a tank from a car with a 2L 4-cylinder engine. Pretty disappointed and the dealership seemed to just dismiss my concern. I can't help but wonder how they get their official figures.
@Fredescu3 жыл бұрын
Constant short trips is never good for fuel economy. If your Passat was the 140TDI, it tested urban cycle economy is 6.3L/100km. Your 8.8l result is 39% higher than stated. The Superb has an urban figure of 9L/100km. Your 12.3 result is 36% higher than stated. So your Superb isn't that much different to your Passat. During Covid lockdown, my wife was driving our Grand Cherokee just for very local trips in our suburb, while I was working from home. It was getting 14L/100km in that time. I wondered if something was wrong, but as soon as I went back to the office driving 20minutes each way, that dropped to 11L/100km, despite still being a city commute. That's still high compared to what it gets on the highway. Length of trip and the amount of coasting you can do makes a huge difference.

I had my heart set on one of these, did all my research and was about to sign a contract for one. However as it turns out, the towing capacity is great, but irrelevant, as you can't get a factory fitted towbar. Something to do with Skoda Australia not ticking the box to include the necessary wiring loom or some such. Otherwise I would have one in my driveway right now. I was most disappointed to find this out and Skoda missed out on a sale because of it. I hope they rectify that in their next shipment of cars.

Also space - 10cm in Octavia and 20cm more in SuperB is really appreciated, when you need to place a child seat behind without touching the front seats. Did I mention fuel consumption? I could NOT exceed 5,5L/100km on spanish hills 160km/h on a highway. In flat Netherlands at 120km/h cost me max 4L on each 100km. 1.6 greenline diesel. Also yearly tax for Octavia is much less than Mondeo, Passat, Leon, Avensis due to less weight and cleaner engine. Done 15k km in 5 months and have to say already that my next car will be also Octavia, if not SuperB. After 2026, when they can't get into the city centers, I'll be looking for a Tesla ;)

I was just about to purchase the 2020 Superb Scout but it turns out you can't get a genuine towbar as apparently the chassis is different to the normal Superb (but it's available on European Scouts). Interesting to note that the 2021 does have the option for a genuine towbar. You can get after-market towbars for the 2020 but they don't fully integrate with the factory electronics.

150mm ground clearance is rubbish. My 2015 Octavia Scout has 171mm according to specs and I've just been outside and checked it by shoving a 150mm box underneath and seeing approx. 20mm gap. Even my 2008 Vauxhall Astra SRI normal hatchback has about 170mm apart from exhaust box (probably cat under middle of car) which protrudes down to 150mm clearance. Octavia Scout has excellent attack and departure angles at front and rear meaning you can go up steep verges, down steep banks. Even with 170mm I struggled to not ground it out when on deep rutted track with big mound in middle. If you want to go mildly off-road, green lanes, rocky tracks and not just engineered chippings etc you need 200mm to be safe, ideally >180mm. This Superb is not even a soft-roader.

150mm might be wrong. I think it has 175mm

It appears Skoda has dropped this model from the Aussie line up.

It's amazing. It literally is a pick up with a canape 😅

Great review, but your channel is full of them so wouldn’t expect anything less. If you drove this car in England where I live, other road users would move out of your way as the police often use these as unmarked traffic cars

That guy slams everyone. It's his USP. Should probably focus more on the cars. Used like his stuff, but needs to spend more time on car play and less time on word play.

Lol if John Cardigan said don't buy something I'd go ahead and buy it. Haven't watched a single clip of his since seeing just one. He's a try hard Jeremy Clarkson as already mentioned (same initials too...!), but has even less morals.

Heard of a chunky buy I’ve Never heard of a “chubby” tyre ...🙂

Chunky would be used to refer to the tread, chubby profile is what he said (as opposed to a low profile which seems so common these days). I’ve not heard chubby used either mind you.
