    Octavia is an emotion for Indians since it was launched here. This vRS just steps up their game. What a beast 😍

    Wow hats off! Easily the best review of the Octavia RS I have seen. And after the comparison with the 330i, it almost feels like I wrote the script. Exactly what I felt about the 2 cars. But finally purchased the RS

    Brilliant! A well thought and to the point comprehensive review. Octavia vRS is a really special car for someone who wants the thrill of driving without burning a huge hole in the pocket and also without compromising space and luxury. Skoda and VW group have nailed it!

  • @vstube3764

    I love these cars. The bmw is clearly superior in every way. But for the cost of a 330i m sport i can buy 2 octavia vrs. The octavia is best value for money under 40 lakhs. Barring the 330i it will beat everything under 50 lakhs while also being cheaper to maintain and service compared to the 3 germans. Not to mention that a stage 1 or stage 2 tune which doesnt require a turbo upgrade will take the octavia to 300+bhp. So after spending around 35 lakhs including the performqnce upgrade you'll have a sedan that beats cars 2 segments above while also being cheap to maintain. Service, insurance and spare parts costs of germans are 2-3 times higher then the skoda. Plus the skoda comes with a humongous boot and good legroom for 4 six footers. I just hope skoda doesnt increase the price of the cars in the next lot.

    that 1 second gap in 0-100 timings is because front wheel drive cars suck at launching. i guess rs can easily keep up with bmw in roll on sprints and will beat it in corners.

  • @GbMuthu
    @GbMuthu Před 5 lety

    The way things are shaping up, if there is going to be an axillary boost mechanism for a patrol engine it will be in the form of an electrical motor not a turbo charger. Turbo chargers are more at home in diesel engines where they forcefeed just air to aid with the combustion. Turbos in a patrol engine forcefeeds fuel-air mix resulting in shortcircuit release of it as speeds built up. Excuse vRS fans, but this car is now a museum piece.

    Well.. I guess I'm totally not in the loop here as to how these cars are performance versions. I was under the impression that spending 35L on a 'performance' car would get me at least a 6 cyl. engine and on-demand 4WD. I drive a 1.8 TSI Superb, while it is a big family saloon and not a performance car I distinctly remember its V6+4WD version selling for around 26L back in 2010.
