2021 Skoda Octavia visually different
Skoda introduced the beginning of the fourth generation in Prague at the end of 2019. The 2021 Skoda Octavia changes are not small and attract a lot of new customers. Perhaps the best way to handle change is to have a comparative view of the old and upcoming Octavia. Designers use the same language but with significantly improved design on the exterior and interior.
New Octavia have 4.689 mm length, 1.829 mm wide, 2.686 mm wheelbase with 640 l in the caravan version and 600 l luggage space in sedan version. This means 5 mm space for knees more for rear seat passengers. Forward changes show a sharper front grille. The headlamp design are upgraded and inspired to the Scali and Superbu models. Matrix LED technology exist as option. The lateral lines are more pronounced and make a big visual difference.
The back view brings new taillights, more lines that give it muscularity and a simpler lower part. The place where the company emblem was now spelled her name. The Octavia model name has been switched from right to left side.
Upcoming Octavia interior changes
A look at the previous generation immediately makes a difference. New Octavia have a new Golf-inspired dashboard. The central place belongs to 10.2 inches touch screen with multimedia system used in Golf. The new design includes a steering wheel that gets more style. The picture speaks beyond words, simply unremarkable!
