I have been using octavia rider since 4 years.


Robust machine, excellent mileage.


It is dream car for highway users because of very good safety features & mileage.


Bit heavy for city use.


But always check the reputation of dealer in your city.As aftersales  service is utmost important for your peace of mind.

    Sorry for delayed reply.
    Maintainence charges are very high.Only go for it if you are ready to pay atleast 5000 for every service.Regarding fuel efficiency it is around 20 Km/l at highway.
    Car is excellent, but post sales service ruins whole reputation.
    I have suggested & forcefully persued my three surgeon friends for this car, but now i do not recommand to anybody because of bad service provided by dealer.
