MG Hs Super Hybrid vs Skoda Kodiaq

What's the difference?

Being a mid-size SUV means the MG HS Super Hybrid is placed in one of Australia’s most competitive segments. 

The flagship Essence plug-in hybrid pairs family-friendly size with an efficient powertrain, promising efficiency without asking you to fully commit to electric life.

But when you’re up against some solid all-rounders in the market… does it do enough to earn a spot on your shortlist?

In the eight years it’s been in our market, the Skoda Kodiaq large SUV has only seen modest updates, but the second-generation seven-seater marks a firm step forward.

You still get all of the clever practicality that Skoda is known for, but it now features a (slightly) sharper design, a raft of new features, improved technology and more room inside.

This week, my family of three has been living with the base 140TSI Select variant to find out whether this understated contender deserves more attention and if its rivals should start to worry.
