Actually the on road price of Skoda Octavia RS245 comes up to 45.28 lakhs(on-road price bengaluru) while the BMW 330i sport is 53.3 lakhs (on-road price bengaluru) which is the entry level model. Not to mention it has a less enthusiastic engine and misses out on most of the features and is less spacious than theRS 245. So its probably more worth buying than a BMW 3 series entry level vehicle well Unless brand value is what your looking for🙄. As far as the 330i m-sport is concerned, its around 62 lakhs (on-road price bengaluru)......just saying😗🤑 Well, Skoda has its own issues like its poor service in terms of availability of parts...... ok now I'm just rambling 😹😹
Would whoop a 330i at track, that car has soft suspension no LSDs its not as hardcore as this, and no one leaves their RS245 stock all of them push over 300hp
EU just got the new Octavia vRS and now Skoda is selling their outdated model at a fortune to Indian customers, I've always wondered why Automakers consider us as second class. Despite our bad driving manners, economy, rules etc 😛, India is still a huge market though.
11L more for acceleration difference of under half a second and larger wheels, it's expensive..hike of 4-5 L was acceptable for the little more it offers than the out going one
The earlier one was miles ahead the better buy. The updated version of rs is accessible abroad at a much cheaper price. This update in India however, does not get the same level of updates.
Car isn't for price sensitive buyers,most of the Rs245 sold will be tuned to reach insane numbers,330I doesn't have such tune friendly engine,and given the fact that stage 2 mods will themselves cost sub 5 lacs,11 lacs won't be that big a stretch for such,its not a surprise that this one will sell out as it is for money no object buyers,and its still somewhat value😂it can easily get around 440bhp,car cost 45 mods approx 15,its still much cheaper then any amg or m car and faster then sub 1 cores cars,nonetheless,sensible choice is bmw,for daily useage,tuners will pick rs245,rest of us will wait till the end of next year to wait for mk4 rs245 hopefully via Ckd route.(Although very uncertain that will come or not given emissions and taxes).
330i,q3, gla 250, camry hybrid, at first level M340 i sport, mercedes 63 amg And the most awaited glb 250 or 35 are the only cars to go for 1st level between 50 to 60 o r price and 2nd level at 80- 1.10 cr or price
ITS A VW GOLF GTI ENGINE AND THE TRANSMISSION NOTHING SPECIAL! WHICH IS GOOD! BUT THE FEW LAKHS AWAY BMW 330I MAYBE A LOW SPEC ONE... BUT ITS REAR WHEEL DRIVE! EVEN IF THE POWER IS LESS... RWD OVER FWD ANYDAY OF THE WEEK!
Because vw group doesn't like to bring fresher generations of cars to India and that sucks, have you looked the European trim of VW polo? That looks sick and we get the same 10 year old model😓😓
Compression ratio of d engine is different, so won't b able to make much power output compared to VRS. Few of d engine internals is also different along with turbo.
The car is definitely over priced and doesn't have the kind of difference necessary over the older car. Unfortunately this is the only Skoda available.
Utterly waste of money. In India car enthusiast r normal people who can't afford a 35 odd lakh car. Other other hand wealthy people just bother about the Badge. The Polo TSi is the true affordable enthusiast choice.Period.
I just don’t understand why you would recommend this over the 330i Msport. Any driving enthusiast will concur the 3 series is much more of a driver’s car barring performance which the octy matches. The rwd and steering/ high speed stability - everything in bmw is better. Also this rs is incredibly overpriced.
Only Front wheels to hold all those horses and 11 L more than the old version.... the car is overpriced
The Europe VRS version has changed. Skoda is selling outdated old stock in India.
This was launched before the new model, so they also gave the same model in international markets before the new one.
Yup new version looks so goood
true
So it's just 5 lakh short of RWD 330i Sport, nice.

Better reliability with the BMW too.
Would whoop a 330i at track, that car has soft suspension no LSDs its not as hardcore as this, and no one leaves their RS245 stock all of them push over 300hp
A Golf GTI and BMW 330i cost the same in UK as well, they cater to a slightly different market RS245 is a niche
actually it's 13 lakhs short of 330i
When you drive a Skoda and still have the guts to take on entry level luxury cars on the highway, you know you are in the VRS. It simply rocks!

Overpriced by at least 10 lakhs. Person buying this over BMW 3 series must be either mad or drunk. Rear wheel drive BMW any day.
11 lacs more expensive than the previous Rs! You can get one Skoda rapid for that much
11 lakhs more than the RS 230 they atleast should have given an all wheel drive
230 was CKD this is CBU that's why it cost more
Or just rear wheel drive
I think thats because its an import. Taxes and all.
Wasn't this claimed to be sold out even before launch?
11L more for acceleration difference of under half a second and larger wheels, it's expensive..hike of 4-5 L was acceptable for the little more it offers than the out going one
Why would someone not spend the additional 5-6 lakhs and buy the 330i sport?. Skoda needs to go back to school for an education on pricing..
If you really are a petrol head you shouldn't even consider this car I would blindly go for the 330i it's on another level 🤷🏻♂️
Whyyy?? I mean why?????!!!! go the CBU route when you could have gone CKD way

42+ lakhs for front wheel driven car?? No thanks i'll rather prefer bmw 330i.
Adorable car, but incredibly overpriced 😒
11 lakhs more expensive??????
330i,q3, gla 250, camry hybrid, at first level
M340 i sport, mercedes 63 amg
And the most awaited glb 250 or 35 are the only cars to go for
1st level between 50 to 60 o r price and 2nd level at 80- 1.10 cr or price
To be very frank, it is the sticker price which had still stock lying in Skoda. Big mistake of hefty price rise
currently skoda is selling this at 26 lakhs ex show room.
WHY INDIA STILL HAS THE OLD MODEL OCTAVIA 🤔
Dose it worth 11 lac more than rs 230?
Skoda should sell these full time
What is the update for new Skoda Octavia launched in India
ITS A VW GOLF GTI ENGINE AND THE TRANSMISSION NOTHING SPECIAL! WHICH IS GOOD! BUT THE FEW LAKHS AWAY BMW 330I MAYBE A LOW SPEC ONE... BUT ITS REAR WHEEL DRIVE! EVEN IF THE POWER IS LESS... RWD OVER FWD ANYDAY OF THE WEEK!
Wasn’t the car sold out upon arrival!?
why is the regular octavia discontinued?
Any day i would go for 330i sport compared to this
This car is outdated! British market and all international market have received new facelift! Good going skoda!
I'd rather buy a Laura VRS,or the first gen Octavia VRS
Y this much hype for skoda with this dated looks... by giving 40 lakhs to skoda we can seriously think about premium cars....
Can anyone please tell me car 7-7.5 lakh the only condition is it should be black in colour
Doesn't the International spec has different overall looks?
May i know why?
They already have the new generation Octavia there. Hopefully we'll get that in 2021
Because vw group doesn't like to bring fresher generations of cars to India and that sucks, have you looked the European trim of VW polo? That looks sick and we get the same 10 year old model😓😓
That's next gen octavia.its coming to India next year.
A new generation has just launched in international markets
international spec is latest one .. here its old
BMW 3 series is to go for
Superb seems better at this price range.
I rather get the rs30 and get 18inch rims imported 💀 those wheels are love
Octavia 2020 model in uk is superb !
Better get the superb 😂
Skoda - Autocar , Best thing
Why the Skoda Octavia reduced the length of the car from the back
Now its better to get the 330i
Need a comparison between rs245 and bmw 330i
RS 245 ONLY 😂😂😂🔥🎉
The only reason the 230 sold out was the price. If they would have added a RWD or AWD it would have made more sense. Right now toooooo expensive
44.22L on road but a superb car
How to work for "Autocar India" ? Please reply
11 lacs+ for just that???
Autocar..the best car review in India...jai hind!!!
Skoda is making it to compete against its own Superb model and also with Camry hybrid.
Very nice car but 11 lacs more than outgoing 230 is definitely not worth it.
Doesn't the new gen superb have the same engine and transmission?
Yes..but with low power figures 188 bhp & 320 Nm
Same transmission but different engine bro. RS 245 has EA888 Gen3A engine while the new Superb and Tiguan Allspace have EA888 Gen3B engine
Yes, facelifted superb has that.
Compression ratio of d engine is different, so won't b able to make much power output compared to VRS. Few of d engine internals is also different along with turbo.
New Superb produces 190BhP and 320 NM of torque. Both has same 2.0 litre TSI petrol engine
Elegant and powerful
Very low ground clearance of 141.
Bhaiyoo kis kis ne 330i khareed li
I would rather buy a Mercedes CLA instead of this skoda
CLA has been discontinued
I like SKODA all model cars
Why not a SKODA RAPID RS?
If I Noted the Vorsprung Dutch Quality of Body Designing is Fantastic👌👌
Wow what a car
Older Octavia good because it is longer and shorter the length of the new Octavia car
The car looks very dated. They won't be selling cars if they look old from day 1.
The same engine should bring in kodiaq
Superb car love to drive anytime ❤
No CIVIC =👎
OCTAVIA =🤘
Not a RWD???
old octavia is better than new
Octavia is a cult classic
Extremely Over priced!
Ground clearance is rather disappointing
Great review..
Awesome review 👍
Good way to burn money
The car is definitely over priced and doesn't have the kind of difference necessary over the older car. Unfortunately this is the only Skoda available.
Utterly waste of money. In India car enthusiast r normal people who can't afford a 35 odd lakh car. Other other hand wealthy people just bother about the Badge. The Polo TSi is the true affordable enthusiast choice.Period.
I am sure the price of this will just increase over time..
Will take superb over it!! More practical!!!
Skoda Octavia VRS - 0-100 -'6.7 secs
My Tuned 2001 honda city VTEC -5.9 secs
Lol
The price will make sense after it catches a couple of years worth of depreciation
35 lakhs🙄
Auto car Lamborghini Vadodara city plz make video plz tell
No match for Beemer 3
I just don’t understand why you would recommend this over the 330i Msport. Any driving enthusiast will concur the 3 series is much more of a driver’s car barring performance which the octy matches.
