The build quality of Skoda Kushaq is visible in this video. Skoda is known for making tough vehicles. The build quality and materials used on the inside are generally very high quality. This has been the case for a long time with all its products. Kushaq, being the newest product in its line up has high levels of localization. However, it seems that the build quality has not been compromised at all. This is a great advantage it might carry against the likes of Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos.

Skoda Kushaq Build Quality
This is an unfortunate accident involving 4 cars. Although the details of the incident are not clear, certain things can still be concluded from the video. It appears that the driver of the Kushaq had to engage the emergency brakes due to some reason. There must be something on the road. However, not all the cars could react on time and the video shows an Alto, Dzire and Ertiga crash one after the other to the back of each other. The Kushaq sustains minor scratches on the rear bumper and cladding but there isn’t anything significant. On the other hand, if you take a look at Alto, Dzire and Ertiga, their bodies are deformed much more than the Kushaq. This clearly shows the build quality of Maruti products. It has always been criticized for making sub-standard cars and this is yet another example of it.
