› New range-topping trim level for ŠKODA’s latest model references the brand’s rally history
› Sporty lifestyle variant with black MONTE CARLO details and an even more comprehensive range of equipment
Mladá Boleslav / Frankfurt, 9 September 2019 – ŠKODA is also continuing the tradition of sporty, lifestyle-oriented MONTE CARLO variants with the new KAMIQ city SUV. Featuring dynamic, black MONTE CARLO design elements, ŠKODA’s latest SUV also makes reference to the brand’s successful rally history and boasts an even wider range of equipment.
Oliver Stefani, Head of ŠKODA Design, said, “The new ŠKODA KAMIQ is a typical ŠKODA SUV yet, thanks to design details such as the split front headlights, offers distinctive visual highlights too. The black MONTE CARLO elements in the KAMIQ MONTE CARLO emphasise this unique character and make the SUV even more appealing for a younger target group. A sportier appearance that references our successful rally cars and the practicality of a clever city CUV are the perfect combination here.”
In addition to the KAMIQ’s characteristic, split full LED headlights, the gloss-black frame of the ŠKODA grille lends the ŠKODA KAMIQ MONTE CARLO a dynamic and distinctive appearance. Sections of the front bumper come in gloss black too, as do the wing mirrors, roof rails, side sills and the ‘ŠKODA’ lettering positioned in the middle of the tailgate. The ŠKODA KAMIQ MONTE CARLO is available with any of the engines in the model range and features 17-inch black alloys with design offered exclusively for a MONTE CARLO variant as standard – 18-inch versions are optional. The list of equipment also includes tinted rear window and rear side windows (SunSet) as well as a panoramic roof. A gloss-black rear diffuser, gloss-black model lettering and full LED tail lights round off the sporty appearance of the new top-of-the-range KAMIQ variant, which can also be identified by a special badge.
Dynamic touches in the interior
The interior of the ŠKODA KAMIQ MONTE CARLO welcomes the driver and front passenger with height-adjustable sports seats that come in a special MONTE CARLO design and feature integrated headrests. The multifunction sports steering wheel is clad in perforated leather and, just like the leather on the gearstick knob and handbrake lever, is adorned with red decorative stitching. Matching LED ambient lighting bathes the centre console in red light (or optional in white light). Storage compartments in the doors, door handles and footwell are illuminated as well, however in the standard white light. In addition, the KAMIQ MONTE CARLO features LED reading lights. The instrument cluster sports a unique design, the air vents on the dashboard and decorative trims offer a selection of two different designs and the pedals come in an aluminium look. KAMIQ lettering on the door sills and a black roof lining complete the interior.
