Octavia gets new character


The Octavia has undergone a modernisation that has given the most successful ŠKODA model even more self-confidence and a new character.

A number of components in the car exterior and interior now offer increased comfort and improvements in handling.
The greater ease of control is quite certainly helped by new headlights, wing mirrors with a larger area and 5th generation parking sensors.

In the interior there is a new instrument panel with clearly legible white scales and (depending on the level of equipment), for example, new Climatic and Climatronic air conditioning control dials with an electronic link and integrated switches for heating the front seats. The rear seats can also be heated; in this case the easy-to-use controls are located on the rear wall of the Jumbo Box on the central console.

Passengers in the front and back seats will now even more enjoy the ride thanks to the spacious interior, as well as the new audio systems, including top-quality Amundsen and Columbus multimedia systems with a colour touch-screen display. Thanks to the MDI interface (Media Device Interface), equipment like the iPod and USB discs can be controlled directly using the control elements for the car radio or a multifunctional steering wheel.

The comfort of travel is also increased by new upholstery and a new design for the central part of the seats, harmonised with the other interior elements, including the decorative strips.

Jumbo Box

The Jumbo-Box between the front seats with an adjustable armrest can be cooled (if the car has air conditioning). The installed audio socket will enable you to make a journey more pleasant by listening to your favourite music. The back wall of the Jumbo Box may contain controls for heating the rear seats (optional accessory).

Amundsen multimedia system

Operated through a 5” colour touch display, AM/FM radio with an RDS and TP system, a dual antenna for FM reception, a CD, CD-MP3, CD-WMA player for music and DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting), display for information from the GSM II, Climatronic air conditioning, parking systems and time on the display, satellite navigation on a Maxi DOT display. These and many other functions are offered by the Amundsen navigation system.

New headlights

The new headlights are significantly larger and more dominant. They now reach to the sides of the body and give the elegant front of the Octavia model an even more impressive and dynamic appearance. Xenon lights with turning modules can be fitted on request.

Light alloy wheels

The fresh and elegant line of the body’s design on the new Octavia is supplemented by attractive 15” Deimos light alloy wheels. You can also choose 15” cast Pyxis wheels and there are 16” and 17” wheels in the range of extra equipment.
