Most Helpful Review

Excellent and value for money

This car I have driven for around 25000 km I have excellent riding and comfort in long driving in the city also it goes very smooth nice and smooth gear transmission milage is also good in long it gets around 17.5 to 18 if you maintain in 3000 rpm which clearly crosses 100kmph. Safety and steadiness are very good. The tilt steering much comfortable for long drives without tiredness you can drive For 4 big persons nice for 5 little tight for small family excellent care.

HOTROD RAPID RIDER

I am Raveen a Skoda Technician you can buy a skoda Rapid rider edition and you can upgrade it to a top model and have great fun Riding it. It is a Sedan Beast. It will have great feel in driving comfort for a long drive also but the service cost is little high because it is imported car.

2017 Skoda Rapid First Drive Review

By Abhishek Nigam21 Nov 2016

Adding some sharpness are the new quartz-cut projector headlights. Adding some more drama is the chrome eyelash blending in with the jewel-shadow LED daytime running lights. It might sound complex but it does look good. The bumper has been revised as well with redesigned fog lights and now incorporating a lip spoiler s well.
