Timeless design, advanced technology, plenty of room for passengers and luggage, outstanding drive properties and excellent value for money. These are just some of the qualities that have so far attracted over two million drivers worldwide and helped make the Octavia one of the most successful models in the Škoda range.

The design of the new Octavia draws on Škoda’s rich history while looking forward with enhanced dynamism and confidence. A higher degree of sophistication, clean elegant lines and a redesigned front and rear of the vehicle announce the arrival of the new Octavia.

The new features and layout of the interior provide a feeling of comfort and safety. The Octavia now offers a completely new generation of three and four-spoke steering wheels, audio and navigation systems available throughout the model range.

The instrument panel is an example of progressive, elegant design, combined with soft, touch-friendly surfaces. White LED illumination provides an elegant contrast against the black instrument panel while the traditional green under-lighting of the rest of the electronic components creates a driver-friendly contrast.

The new materials and colours of the seats and the lining of the door panels are inspired by contemporary trends, and complement the new decors of the instrument panel for each of the trim levels.

Advanced technology

The technology featured in the new Octavia is amongst the most advanced of any car on the road today. The new Octavia is available with two petrol or one diesel engine, and a range of manual and automatic gearboxes.

This includes a revolutionary 7-speed DSG dual clutch transmission system, specifically developed for the 1.8 TSI/118kW engine.

The new Octavia’s engine displacements and outputs cover a wide range, meeting the needs of every customer. Petrol engines include the 1.6/75kW engine and the turbocharged 1.8 TSI with an output of 118kW. The Octavia’s diesel offering is a powerful 2.0 litre turbocharged engine with an output of 103kW.
