    Folks,
    Does anyone know what year that adaptive cruise would have been available as an option for the Q7?
    Second car is a 2015 mark 3 skoda superb and it has had it as standard since its release in 2015.
    Looking to get one of them Q7 wagons and want to know what year to start looking at.

    Its been an option since generation 1 was launched back in 06/07. Always a pricey option though between 2k and 2.5k so i wouldnt expect a lot of cars to be around with that option.

    It's mad that it's standard equipment on the Polo and a 2 grand extra on a Q7

    Are we talking about cruise control or adaptive cruise control folks?
    I’d had two Mk3 Skoda Superbs and neither of which had adaptive cruise control – it’s an optional extra on the Superb!

    Maybe it's only standard on the elegance spec then. I couldn't be without it to be honest. Combined with the automatic gear box all I need to do is steer basically. Cuts out hard braking and accelerating. So it should be more common in 2014 onwards Q7s ye think?

    Adaptive cruise is standard on L&K spec Superb but optional otherwise.

    If you want anything beyond bog spec on a Q7 , find one in the UK, visual clues that it might have it are the propper full nav screen and the interior lighting pack or panoramic roof.

    I doubt youd find it on an irish car

    It’s also standard on the Superb ‘Style’ spec.

    Must be newly added to the Style spec list - I've had a 2016 & 2017 Superb Style 20TDI Manual and neither had adaptive cruise control!

    I cant imagine it would work very well with a manual transmission.

    We have it in a manual Passat. Obviously it has some limitations in the manual but still very useful.
    You just drive through the gears up and down normally and adaptive cruise keeps distance to car in front. Being manual it clearly cannot bring you to a stop as clutch input is needed so it simply beeps to take over at about 20 kmh.
