Power, agility and emotion blended with maximum efficiency and generous roominess – the Skoda Octavia sets the bar in the sporty subcompact segment. And now, Skoda is also presenting the widely-loved RS model in an all-wheel version. The Skoda Octavia RS 4x4 is making its motor show debut in Geneva. The four-wheel drive system, which relies on an electronically regulated multi-plate clutch, is accessible with the Octavia diesel 2.0 TDI/135 kW (184 PS) and six-speed DSG transmission. The adjustable Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC) and, for the first time on a Skoda model, the integrated wireless phone charger, offer extra comfort. This makes the Skoda Octavia RS 4x4 an appealing combo that packs maximum practicality in everyday use.
"The Skoda Octavia RS has been a big hit; sales of our sporty hatchback and estate models surpass our outlooks," remarked Christian Strube, Skoda Board Member for Technical Development. "And with the all-wheel-drive Octavia RS now part of the team, we're taking our RS range to a new, desirable level – once more proving our mastery in four-wheel-drive technology," he added.
Ever since launching the third generation Skoda Octavia RS in the middle of 2013, interest has been high – at the end of January 2016, Skoda had already shipped over 71,800 units. More than half a million 4x4 Skoda cars have been sold since the very first four-wheel-drive Skoda Octavia Combi was made available in the market in 1999. Whether a hatchback or an estate, the Skoda Octavia RS brings together sportiness and functionality, reflecting the brand's 115 years of successful motorsport history.
