    Skoda cars may be a bit pricey but IMHO, they are highly underrated. Given the features and value for money, they can give any other car in respective category a run for their money.

      Bro what about built quality when compared to others

    • @EqualsDeath
      @EqualsDeath 5 років тому +5

      @@Mouli_Koripella it's better. plus, octavia is the most sold family car in Europe. 2018 octavia feels like my 2010 Passat. and that tells you something

    @razenraj2001 7 років тому +1

    design - the lines are awesomely sharp yet understated.
    price is slightly sour true but to bring back the game pricing has to be sweet to re live the first generation octavia launched in India. which nither latter models failed to generate.
    Also the after sales and service of skoda and vw doing the rounds...
    atlest the 1.5 litre oetrol should be little kick down some fancy gig to play fair with the competition and pricing

    Hands free parking seems lucrative but any skoda review is incomplete without talking about after sales and service.
    Price might be half of others who offers hands free parking but service is much worse than others as well.

    Skoda still way behind to capture indian market...the company is not concentrating on lower market like hyundai did.. Also volkswagen n honda did.... They are jst maintaining their class at a cost of loss making... They must start production from as low as 5 lacs... 7 lacs 10 lacs... N so on.... Look at Renault they enter late after skoda n now for sure selling more vehicles than skoda
