Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine vs Skoda Kodiaq Comparison overview

Comparison overview: The Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine starts at ₹44.45 L and the Skoda Kodiaq at ₹36.99 L, a difference of ₹7.46 L ex-showroom. On-road in New Delhi that gap becomes roughly ₹8.28 L. Here is what the extra money actually buys.

Mileage and running cost: These two figures are not like for like. The Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine number is for the Diesel/Petrol Automatic and the Skoda Kodiaq number is for the Petrol Automatic, so compare the variants you are actually shortlisting.

What one gives that the other does not: The Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine adds Day & Night Rear View Mirror, Door Ajar Warning, Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Engine Immobilizer and ISOFIX Child Seat Mounts. The Skoda Kodiaq adds Side Airbag-Rear, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Rear Camera and Hill Descent Control. The rest of both spec sheets is shared.

Which one should you buy?

Buy the Skoda Kodiaq if you drive mostly in the city, you want the lower running cost, and you would rather keep the ₹7.46 L for your down payment than spend it on features.

Buy the Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine if you do regular highway runs, you carry luggage or a pram often, and you want Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) without waiting for the next facelift.

The one thing that settles it: Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine offers Day & Night Rear View Mirror.

Before you sign anything:

Ex-showroom price is not what you pay. Add registration, road tax, insurance and handling, and expect the final figure to land ten to twelve percent higher. Road tax changes state to state, so a car that costs the same in two cities does not cost the same to own.

Ask the dealer four things before you book. What is the current waiting period for the variant you want. What is the on-road figure.

Then drive both cars back to back on the same day, on a road you actually use. Take your family. Put your usual luggage in the boot. Most people decide in the first ten minutes, and it is rarely for the reason they expected.
