Volkswagen's Skoda Auto is based in the Czech Republic, and develops and manufactures premium automobiles for the world market. The year 2001 witnessed the advent of Skoda Auto's Indian operations, beginning with a plant at Shendra on the Ahmedabad border (the company's single manufacturing unit outside of Europe).

Inspired by the enthusiastic response of the Indian car buyers, the manufacturer now offers a wide range of automobiles to choose from. The Skoda Octavia comes in four main trims -- Skoda Ambiente Turbo, Skoda Ambiente Skoda L&K, and Skoda Elegance. The series is offered in petrol and diesel versions with a choice of two transmissions, a 5-speed manual and a 4-speed automatic.

It is equipped with ample safety features. Driver and passenger airbags, pre-tensioned seat belts as well as an anti-lock braking system (ABS) are standard gear.

The Skoda L&K is equipped with 1.9L in-line 4, diesel engine that produces 90 bhp of power with a torque of 210 Nm. The Ambiente Turbo 1.8 sports a high performance, turbocharged petrol 1.8L Double Overhead Camshaft (DOHC) engine that delivers 150 bhp of power and 210 Nm of torque. While the Aminete 1.9L a 5-speed manual transmission is standard.

The Octavia Elegance 1.9 TDI (diesel) and the Octavia Ambiente are mounted with an in-line 4 diesel engine that produces 90 bhp worth of power and achieves a maximum torque of 210 Nm. A 5-speed manual transmission comes standard with both the models

The Elegance, with 4-speed automatic transmission, has fuzzy logic that facilitates a smooth driving experience. The instrument cluster has a mini dot display that updates the driver at all times about which gear he is driving in. All these engines are frugal, sprinters and display surplus passing power.

All of Skoda's offerings feature its trademark stamp of class, luxury and cutting edge technology. The L&K limousine is Skoda's high-end variant that brings with it a blend of upper crust sophistication and elegance. Its interior resonates with plush luxury and technological wizardry.

The dynamic 4-door Skoda RS is one of the fastest cars in the country; it epitomises sporty luxury at its best. The Skoda Octavia Elegance has an understated grace, and is tuned to serve up a comfortable and silent ride. It is armed with plenty of safety features as well as comforts such as an electronically regulated climatronic air conditioner, a 12V DC outlet and ashtrays for the front as well as the rear seats.

Some available accessories across trims include door sill covers with a stainless-steel decorative strip, leather steering wheel, a three-piece wood trim set (for the mid-console), alloy wheels, child safety equipment, electric front windows, independent heating, cruise control, sunroof, central locking and more.

Besides high-quality interior acoustics, the range also offers a broad choice of audio systems -- car radios, CD players and CD changers. Accessories such as front and rear bumper spoilers, a rear boot spoiler and a stainless steel exhaust pipe give the Octavia an aerodynamic silhouette.

Unlike the Indian scenario, Skoda has always been perceived as the common man’s car. It does its job and quietly sits in the corner of the VW home without drawing too much attention. The reason being if it attracted too much attention, it would invade big daddy VW’s target market.

Most Skodas are essentially nothing but skimped up VWs. And the place where the cost cutting is more evident is the design of the car. Skodas exterior design boys have to be the most under paid designers in the world. Leaving beside the Superb and perhaps the Yeti, all other Skodas present in the Indian market are a bit damp in their respective segments.

2013 Octavia should be okay to tackle new Civic

But all of that can sure change if they hire this guy who made this exclusive rendering of the 2013 Skoda Octavia. WOW!! It the sort of a thing even Tony Stark wouldn’t mind as a company car.

The new car is expected to be a bit longer (+60mm) and a bit wider (+40mm) than the outgoing model. The car will receive a 1.4L TSI and 1.6L TDI engine along with a Start-Stop technology. Tradition will continue with a RS model and a Wagon with 4WD. The car will come equipped with new parking assistant and adaptive cruise control.

Back home, it will be a bit different. Obviously, this car will not come to India as an Octavia but will rather make it as as the next generation Laura (because some marketing nunty in the past thought that selling the same car with 2 different name would be more appropriate for the Indian scenario)

In fact sources also confirm of another sedan which will be priced below this Octavia for the emerging markets using the VW Vento platform. This means there may be a possibility of a revival of the Octavia – Laura product mix for India.
