4th-gen Skoda Octavia India launch postponed

The revised launch date of the fourth generation Octavia has not been revealed.

Skoda has postponed the India launch of the fourth generation Octavia due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The revised launch timeline is yet to be announced.

The new Octavia is based on the MQB EVO platform and has a slightly longer wheelbase compared to the outgoing model.

The car features a revised front fascia with redesigned LED headlamps and new LED tail lights. It also gets a new set of dual-tone alloy wheels.

The Octavia is likely to come with a choice of two turbocharged petrol engines. These include a 1.5-litre TSI unit paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and a 2.0-litre TSI unit which could be offered with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
