Skoda Octavia: technical characteristics of the popular liftback

Skoda Octavia, the technical characteristics of which inspired many to make a profitable purchase, was announced in the spring of 2013 in a new version.
It happened during the auto show in Geneva. The car got a new A7 body. In Russia, the car appeared in the spring of the same year. Before that, the Czechs had never used the MQB platform as a basis.

Appearance – restrained charisma
If we compare the new model with its progenitor, we can see that its dimensions have become more impressive. So, the length has become more than 4.6 meters, which is 9 centimeters more than it was. The width of the third-generation Octavia is just over 1.8 meters, which is 4.5 centimeters more than it was before. The wheelbase increased by almost 11 centimeters and amounted to more than 2.6 meters.

Such a change in parameters allowed to increase the interior space of the car. It became very spacious there. But the trunk remained almost the same as it was. Its volume increased from 585 to 590 liters. The station wagon has a slightly larger trunk with a volume of 610 liters.

The car has become much more solid. The developers used the corporate identity of their concern, it is simply impossible to confuse a car with any other brand. So, the usual Skoda radiator grille is located in front, connecting the hatchback headlights. The company's logo is located on top of it. It is located right on the center of the hood rib.

From behind, you can notice the appearance of LED lights. From behind, it seems that the car has acquired a fin. This effect was due to the rear window line located above the usual one.

Car interior – keeping up with the times
If the exterior has undergone many purely external changes, then this cannot be said about the interior. The innovations touched more on the technical side. The architecture of the salon remained unchanged. The geometry of the handles has changed somewhat. Octavia received ventilation system deflectors with completely new shapes.

The car has got a new steering wheel, which looks expensive and restrained. The dashboard has not changed much. But the multimedia screen of the system has become larger than before. The car received a completely new control unit for the climate control system.
