The Octavia is a classic family sedan under the Skoda brand. Since its first generation was domestically produced in 2007, it has sold over 600,000 units. This car shares the same platform as the Volkswagen Sagitar, with an exceptionally well-tuned chassis that makes it feel glued to the road at high speeds. The trunk is a hatchback design—last time I helped a friend move, we managed to fit a folding bicycle inside. The new model features more aggressive crystal headlights and a vertical grille design. Powered by a 1.4T engine paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, it boasts a fuel consumption of around 6L/100km, making it very economical. It’s one of the few cars in its price range to come with an electric tailgate and rear independent air conditioning. Those who know cars well understand that it offers more generous features than its Volkswagen counterparts on the same platform.
