A larger alternative to the recently updated Volkswagen Golf, the Octavia gets new matrix LED headlights that look like they're melting a bit. The new headlights feature glare-free adaptive high beam and will be an optional feature on lower trim levels, but will be standard on the RS. The latter has lost the separate daytime running lights that Skoda has mounted inside the bumper since the second-generation Octavia RS facelift launched in 2009.
The rear end has been heavily modified, although the optional design for the taillights now sends off some Audi flair. The 2024 Octavia comes with renewed alloy wheels ranging in size from 16 to 19 inches, as well as bold colors such as Phoenix Orange and Mamba Green. The font used for the brand and model has been carefully revised and the RS logo on the front and rear is now larger.
Predictably, the cabin has been largely revamped, except for the new infotainment system with a screen with an expanded 13-inch diagonal. Even in basic mode there is now a 10-inch digital instrument cluster and dual-zone automatic climate control. Skoda has updated the upholstery and upholstery options while retaining the ventilated and massaging front seats for an additional fee.
The regular Octavia has lost its three-cylinder 1.0 TSI engine, meaning the range will now start with the larger 1.5 TSI. The four-pot unit is available in standard and mild-hybrid configurations, and you can choose between 114 hp and 220 Nm (162 lb-ft) or 148 hp and 250 Nm (184 lb-ft). Non-electric versions come with a six-speed manual transmission, while those with 48V technology have a seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission. 1.5 TSI models are front-wheel drive only.
The flagship, front-wheel-drive-only Octavia RS uses an upgraded 2.0 TSI engine that now produces 261 hp, an extra 20 hp compared to the pre-facelift model. It matches the grunt of the new Golf GTI and offers 370 Nm (272 lb-ft) of torque, which remains unchanged. The clutch pedal is nowhere to be found, echoing Wolfsburg's DSG-only hot hatch.
By 2025, Skoda will introduce an all-wheel-drive petrol version with a 2.0 TSI engine tuned to 201 hp, directed to both axles via DSG. There is an increase of 13 hp compared to the previous model offered with this engine. Torque remains the same at 320 Nm (236 lb-ft).
Meanwhile, the 2.0 TDI diesel engine is still available, producing 114 hp and 300 Nm (221 lb-ft) or 148 hp and 360 Nm (266 lb-ft). The former is coupled to a manual transmission while the latter is an automatic-only affair and both feature FWD setting.
