The new Skoda Octavia challenges the all-loved and respected Volkswagen Golf. The new Skoda model welcomes customers with a subtle updated design and German quality. The Octavia focuses on practical space, practicality and reliability. Compared to the previous generation, the new car is 90mm longer, 45mm wider, and the wheelbase has been increased by 108mm (to 2686mm). The Octavia model has the most spacious interior in its class - the cabin length reaches as much as 1782 mm. In addition, the 590-liter boot also outperforms many competitors. All this will be highly appreciated by fans of this brand. True, the car is no longer as cheap as it used to be - Skoda knows its value, which the buyer pays for. The design of the car will not breathe new winds - on the one hand, the subtle style that meets many tastes and cherishes the company's traditions is somewhat reminiscent of the Audi A4 models of the last decade. On the other hand, the sculptural Skoda lines attract with their subtlety and elegance. You will not add anything and you will not take anything away. The interior has become much more modern and attractive, and the soft plastic makes it really pleasant. Only the plastic between the front seats is cool, but it also doesn’t smell cheap. The Skoda Octavia is equipped with a wide range of engines. These include a 1.4-liter TSI engine with 120 hp, a 1.8-liter TSI engine with 177 hp and 1.6-liter TDI engines that generate 109 hp in GreenLine versions and consume just 3.4 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. . The most powerful version of the RS will have a 2.0-liter turbo engine borrowed from the Volkswagen Golf GTI. On the road, the Skoda Octavia behaves safely and predictably, although it does not feature the fire that the new Volkswagen Golf already boasts. The steering could provide more information to the driver, but it certainly won’t bother the static Skoda driver.
