A new four-wheel drive version of Skoda’s vaunted Octavia vRS has hit UK showrooms.
Available as both hatchback and estate, the new Octavia vRS 4x4 continues the recent expansion of the range which saw the vRS 230 model added last year. The current third-generation Skoda Octavia was first introduced in the UK in 2013.
Priced from £27,315, the Octavia vRS 4x4 adds all-wheel-drive capability to the Octavia vRS range for the very first time in the decade-and-a-half since the vRS was first launched. The four-wheel-drive system constantly monitors traction at each wheel to ensure the power generated by the 2.0-litre TDI engine, which is mated to a six-speed DSG gearbox as standard. As a result the Octavia vRS can go from 0-62mph in 7/6 seconds but still returns 57.7mpg in hatchback form. CO2 output figures are 129g/km for the hatch and 131g/km for the estate.
Features include multi-link sports suspension, electronic differential lock XDS+, and numerous assistance systems for enhanced safety and comfort, as well as a design package that includes unique vRS bumpers, spoiler and interior. Other equipment includes touchscreen satellite navigation system, 18-inch Gemini anthracite alloy wheels, bi-xenon headlights, and dual-zone climate control with humidity sensor.
