When people stretch for almost 30L , spending 7L more for the a3 won't be a stretch but yeah this offers much more space and value but the desirability that comes with owning an Audi is just something that most people cannot resist !
This point about poor service is a bit overstated. As an owner of the current model, I can tell you that service has been top notch and I have only had to spend Rs.7000 so far for servicing the car which is now 2.5 yrs old. That means that in 3 years of its lifetime, this is the amount i would have spent on service. Now compare that with even a Hyundai i10 for service costs. You will be surprised that you would have spent around 20k by the time the car is 3 yrs old - 3 times the amount for a car 3 segments lower! Skoda is making a lot of effort lately to improve service so let's acknowledge that and bring some balance here. I can't vouch for part costs or delays when parts are not available and so on though as I haven't yet faced them. I am however confident that its not going to be as bad as most reviewers here state. They have messed up a lot in the past but seem to be trying hard. let's give them a chance. They make great cars.
Yes agree to your point that they are putting effort to improve. But quoting just 7000 rs..are you stating the labour and not including essential material
u guys don't know how to review back seat comfort....no mention about "under thigh support"...80% of buyers will be back seaters... the language is as if you have mugged up the dialogues...😂😂
The first 10 sec bgm cripples the entire style of the overall video.. just a suggestion if u feel can be incorporated..rest of the review is good. pls dont critisize me coz i felt to tell this just as humble fan.. ✌
i am thinking of buying ford EcoSport but because of its looks my father dont like this car he says it's a elephant 🐘 looks car. not like vitara breeza. in EcoSport which engine i prefer 1.0 ecoboost (petrol)😊 or 1.5 litre titanium (petrol). i like to drive fast.
Motorbeam do you know that the skoda sucks in reliability sector. Because I have read somewhere on the internet that owners are facing issue even from a 6 month old car. Any real life experiences from your side would be appreciated if u have any !!!
Ever driven one? Will you pay top dollar if a bmw badge is put on a celerio? Did you know that you can totally leave a 320d in the dust with the 1.8 tsi engine, let alone cars in its own segment? Cars are meant to be driven and a badge means nothing when you put your foot down and watch the competition become smaller and smaller in the rear view mirror.
Indian Superman The main company is a premium brand. VW has many subsidiary companies so they try compete within each other. Their spare parts arent cheap
Sorry to break it to you but the 1.8 TSI is not leaving a 320D in the dust. The VRS if and when it comes to India will do those honours but until then please stop spreading bullshit. The Octavia is a brilliant car and is super VFM but you don't have to gas it up too much .
And yet the 1.4L engine with turbo develops more power than the altis' 1.8L NA. There is no comparison in handling between the two cars either. The 1.8 TSI on the Octi which comes with the multi-link suspension is an entirely different beast.
Hello #MotorBeamers, what do you think about the 2017 Skoda Octavia? Will you buy this over the Mercedes CLA or Audi A3?
Better than Audi A3, definitely like this facelift & pricing.
Parth Gohil I don't think that's a panoramic sunroof. it's just a normal sunroof.
CLA and A3 are Rapid and Vento sized cars priced at Superb levels.
When people stretch for almost 30L , spending 7L more for the a3 won't be a stretch but yeah this offers much more space and value but the desirability that comes with owning an Audi is just something that most people cannot resist !
Would prefer superb over A3 n CLA

Does all petrol variants get multilink suspension
No. Only the 1.8 TSI
this car looks way better with facelift
Flash Boy yes it does
What kind of cruise control Skoda is offering for Octavia in India , normal or adaptive ?
an honest review.good one
It's just a sunroof not a panoramic one.
which one's suspension is better 1.4 or 2.0? and do it's base variant get leather seat,sunroof,6 airbags, ambient lighting,8" touch screen info?
APTOCALYTE GUY 1.4 and 2.0 have the same suspension. 1.8 has the better one
Parth Gohil and what about the features I have mentioned below
What about reliability of this car any idea
Which place is this in chandigarh at the start of the video
why didn't you highlight the "simply clever" features?
No mention about hands free parking...:(
u guys don't know how to review back seat comfort....no mention about "under thigh support"...80% of buyers will be back seaters...
the language is as if you have mugged up the dialogues...😂😂
We always speak about under-thigh support.
why do i get late notifications of your video's
The first 10 sec bgm cripples the entire style of the overall video.. just a suggestion if u feel can be incorporated..rest of the review is good.

how's it sales and service and resale value
APTOCALYTE GUY still terible

Now Skoda have average sales and good service

WHEN WOULD U REVIEW THE SKODA OCTAVIA 1.8TSI L&K EDITION..#MotorBeam
Octavia 1.8 dsg or elantra petrol
Nice video.elantra nd civic makes the octavia look slightly dated
Not 30 lakh it have 27 lakh on road top model diesel
+basic knowledge still worth it.
Let the information shown below be there for few seconds. This is changed in a flash👎🏼
Not the best if priced this way , why not buy Superb then ? who dont care about efficiency
It's not a panoramic sunroof...
The octavia is not D segment but C

does this video shoot in AURANGABAD. MH20. ????
No, Skoda's factory is there.
MotorBeam yah I know I am from Aurangabad.
thanks for replay.
Bhaio solid kar hai jab service mai bhejo to 15 din se 1 mahina bhool jana 1 extra car le lena aur jeb halki karte rehna
does it have ABS???
Of course it does.
MotorBeam tys bro
Good looking great performance sadly premature failures and break downs. Costly maintenance and poor reliability. Good car to drive. Poor to own
is this new octavia better than jetta
ROHAN AGARWAL yes, Jetta is now discontinued
Parth Gohil few days back i saw a new jetta on road thats why i asked this question
ROHAN AGARWAL maybe some dealer must be having unsold inventory
ROHAN AGARWAL yes jetta is discontinued
No long term realiability and after sales
9 airbags hi not 8
Where the hell is mother of D segment 10th gen HONDA CIVIC in Indian market?
+UCeejay 2.0 coming next year.
No doubt, will be overpriced. Classic Honda, sigh
Its here
Civic is on next level
Does the diesel model have paddle shifters ?
Yes it does.

i am thinking of buying ford EcoSport but because of its looks my father dont like this car he says it's a elephant 🐘 looks car. not like vitara breeza. in EcoSport which engine i prefer 1.0 ecoboost (petrol)😊 or 1.5 litre titanium (petrol). i like to drive fast.
EcoBoost is better.
last always
Any chance for jeep renegade this year?
No, next year.
Very Nice car but overpriced

The Octavia sure is the best car in the D-segment but why the hell does it cost so much? Is Skoda a premium brand? Hell, no, stop fooling Indians.
Ever driven one? Will you pay top dollar if a bmw badge is put on a celerio? Did you know that you can totally leave a 320d in the dust with the 1.8 tsi engine, let alone cars in its own segment? Cars are meant to be driven and a badge means nothing when you put your foot down and watch the competition become smaller and smaller in the rear view mirror.
Indian Superman The main company is a premium brand. VW has many subsidiary companies so they try compete within each other. Their spare parts arent cheap
Sorry to break it to you but the 1.8 TSI is not leaving a 320D in the dust. The VRS if and when it comes to India will do those honours but until then please stop spreading bullshit. The Octavia is a brilliant car and is super VFM but you don't have to gas it up too much .
The price corolla Altis 1.8L GL petrol is same as this 1.4L turbo engine.
And yet the 1.4L engine with turbo develops more power than the altis' 1.8L NA. There is no comparison in handling between the two cars either. The 1.8 TSI on the Octi which comes with the multi-link suspension is an entirely different beast.
This isn't Panoramic roof, plz correct urself.
