What are the differences between the Lamando and the Octavia Pro?
2 Answers
Lamando and Octavia Pro differences are introduced as follows: Different powertrains: The Lamando is equipped with the new EA888 TSI engine, while the Octavia Pro features a 1.4 TSI high-power turbocharged engine. Different transmissions: The Lamando's engine is paired with the new DSG seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, whereas the Octavia Pro's engine is matched with a DSG dual-clutch transmission. Different suspensions: The Lamando comes standard with MacPherson independent front suspension and a four-link independent rear suspension, while the Octavia Pro comes standard with independent suspension across all variants.
I recently test drove these two cars and found the differences quite noticeable. The Lamando is a sporty sedan from the Volkswagen brand, with a cool design and dynamic lines. It has quick throttle response and strong cornering support, giving it a hot hatch feel, making it ideal for young people who seek driving pleasure. The Octavia Pro comes from Skoda, with a more practical design, spacious interior, and especially a huge trunk that can easily fit a stroller or luggage. It offers high ride comfort, making it particularly suitable for family trips. Both cars use Volkswagen Group engines and technology, but the Lamando is priced higher with stronger brand premium. The Octavia Pro stands out for its value for money, with basic features like parking sensors mostly included. My suggestion is, if you prioritize practicality and space, the Octavia Pro is a more hassle-free choice; if you want to look cool and enjoy spirited driving, the Lamando is more exciting.
