The Octavia, also known as the Laura in India, has released its latest model. Now in its third generation the all new Octavia offers a new design, high functionality, innovative safety and comfort systems, low fuel consumption, a wide range of clever solutions and a Skoda-typical price-value ratio. The interior dimensions of the car have increased significantly making the new Octavia the best in class for interior length (1,782 mm), knee room (73 mm) and headroom at the back (980 mm). The new model is 90 mm longer and 45 mm wider than the second-generation Octavia. At the same time, the wheelbase has grown by 108 mm, mainly benefiting the interior and space on the rear seats. Despite its increased size and larger amount of technology on board, Skoda engineers have still succeeded in making the car up to 102kg lighter than the previous generation. As of now we are not sure which engine variants will come to India, but we do suspect the 1.8 litre diesel unit to make its way and we also expect to see lots more safety features and more in car entertainment.
