FactKaroq borrows its name from the Aleutian language of Kodiak Island's native Alaskans.
The Škoda Karoq is a compact SUV (C-segment) designed and built by Škoda Auto, introduced in 2017 on the Volkswagen Group MQB A1 platform, replacing the Škoda Yeti. It was officially introduced on 18 May 2017 in Stockholm, production began at Kvasiny at the turn of June and July 2017, and sales started in the autumn of 2017. It is a sister model to the SEAT Ateca, sharing its chassis, roof stamping and side doors, and is significantly larger than the Yeti: 160 mm longer, 35 mm wider and 40 mm lower, with a wheelbase 60 mm longer. The name is derived from the Aleutian language of the native inhabitants of the Alaskan island of Kodiak, and the Karoq was Škoda's best-selling model in 2019. It is available in two- and four-wheel-drive configurations, with a MacPherson front axle and a four-link rear axle, and the Chinese-market Karoq is produced by SAIC-Volkswagen. A facelifted Karoq was unveiled in December 2021.
