The OCTAVIA RS heralded the success of ŠKODA’s RS models in 2000. Since then, the Czech car manufacturer has also offered an RS version of its bestseller in every model generation, either as a saloon or COMBI. The drive portfolio is now more diverse than ever, with petrol and diesel engines as well as plug-in hybrid drive and five powertrain combinations.

For the fourth model generation, three engine options and five drive combinations are available for the ŠKODA OCTAVIA RS for the first time. The OCTAVIA RS with a 2.0 TSI petrol engine delivers 180 kW (245 hp) and is available with a 6-speed manual gearbox or a 7-speed DSG. With the direct-shift gearbox, the OCTAVIA RS accelerates from a standstill to 100 km/h in 6.7 seconds, with a top speed of 250 km/h. The output of the 2.0 TDI in the current model generation is 147 kW (200 hp) combined with a 7-speed DSG as standard. The OCTAVIA RS 2.0 TDI is available with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive as an option. For the first time, ŠKODA is also offering the model with plug-in hybrid drive. A 1.4 TSI petrol engine and an electric motor generate a system output of 180 kW (245 hp) for the OCTAVIA RS iV, with a 6-speed DSG transmitting the power to the front wheels.
