More Expert Reviews on Virtus and Octavia [2013-2015]

Skoda Octavia

By Charles Pennefather26 Sep 2013

A dozen years ago, the Indian car market didn’t have the choices it does today. The Honda City was the car we all aspired to, and those of us that couldn’t, got an Esteem. In an environment like this, an unknown Czech brand launched its German-engineered car, and everyone was stunned not just by the quality it offered at its price, but its fuel efficiency on the highway as well. The Octavia deservedly earned its reputation over the years; the follow-up, the Laura never really did grab the imagination of the car-buying public as much. Now Skoda has decided to get back to its roots and put the Octavia name back where it belongs. They claim that “The Legend Is Back”. Well, is it?
