NCAP 5★

The Kushaq delivers where it matters most: safety, refinement and build quality. Its 148bhp TSI engine is willing, and feature-rich top variants justify their price with ventilated seats, Virtual Cockpit and wireless smartphone integration. However, real-world efficiency disappoints, no ADAS exists at any price, and the base manual trim skips cruise control entirely.

Stands out

  • 5-star Global NCAP crash rating with 6 airbags standard across range
  • Strong 148bhp TSI turbo with 250Nm torque and three transmission options
  • Top trims richly equipped: ventilated seats, rear massage, panoramic sunroof, Virtual Cockpit
  • Wireless Android Auto/CarPlay with Google Cloud AI Assistant on higher variants
  • Composed, planted European driving dynamics and solid build quality
  • 4-year/100,000 km warranty reflects manufacturer confidence

!Gives us pause

  • Efficiency of 19.66 kmpl trails segment norms for a petrol compact-SUV
  • Zero ADAS or Level-2 driver aids at any trim or price point
  • Base Classic+ manual lacks cruise control and hill-hold control
  • Panoramic sunroof limited to top two trims only
  • Rear seat space and 385L boot smaller than some compact-SUV rivals
