Ukrainian dealers of the Czech brand have announced hryvnia prices for Skoda Octavia liftbacks and station wagons in the most "heated" RS modification.
And although the manufacturer promised the opportunity to choose between a diesel and a gasoline engine, at present, Ukrainian buyers are available RS exclusively with a two-liter 220-horsepower gasoline turbo engine developing 350 Nm of torque. With this power unit, the "maximum speed" is 248 km / h, and the Skoda Octavia RS reaches the credited 100 km / h in 6.8 seconds.
Distinctive features of the exterior of the "charged" Octavias are modified front and rear bumpers, chrome-trimmed trapezoidal exhaust pipes, the presence of a rear diffuser, oversized air ducts and, of course, distinctive RS-badges on the fifth door and false radiator grille. Also, the car got a sporty stiffer suspension with reduced ground clearance. So the indicator of ground clearance decreased by 12 millimeters for the liftback and by 13 millimeters for the station wagon. Ukrainian prices for the Skoda Octavia RS liftback start at UAH 296,522 for a car with a six-speed manual. The version with automatic transmission will be available for UAH 314,614. For universal RS Combi cars, you will need to pay UAH 308,067 (manual gearbox) and UAH 326,150 for a modification with an automatic transmission. A lot. Especially considering the lack of a recycling fee in the price, which was avoided due to assembly within the country. The Octavia RS will be delivered to the conveyor belt of the Uzhgorod car assembly plant "Eurocar" in the first spring month of this year - 2014.
