As previously announced, a refreshed edition of Škoda Octavia will arrive on the market next month. The arrival was announced with a short video showing the covered car.
The video doesn’t reveal much, but some changes can be seen compared to the current model, such as the new design of the front daytime running lights, a slightly redesigned grille and a new bumper design. The rear part should also experience changes, but less compared to the front part. This is confirmed by previously published spy photos.
There will also be a change in the interior of the vehicle. The Volkswagen Group strives to have its screens in use in all their cars, which can be expected in the case of the Octavia, which will receive a new infotainment screen.
Although there is no confirmation of the powertrain that will be used by the new version of the Octavia, some predictions say that it could be a 1.0L three-cylinder turbo petrol engine with 114 hp (85 kW), but also a 1.5L four-cylinder engine with 148 hp (110 kW). and the 2.0L engine from the RS model.
Some information suggests that the Czech car manufacturer could introduce a fully electric version of the Octavia in the next few years.
