First images show styling details of Skoda’s new Octavia vRS
These are the first images of the forthcoming Skoda Octavia vRS, which have appeared online prior to the car’s official debut.
The pictures of the range-topping Octavia appear to be screenshots from an online car configurator and show the styling details that will differentiate the vRS from the rest of the range.
As with the current Octavia vRS, the visual upgrades are subtle. More prominent bumpers front and rear give the car a more sporting stance and there are new twin trapezoidal tail pipes.
Propeller-style alloy wheels, as seen on the new VW Golf GTI are also fitted, covering brake calipers that are finished in red. A small spoiler on the boot lid completes the makeover.
The Ocatavia vRS is expected to use the same 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine as found in the new Golf GTI. Developing 217bhp, power is up 20bhp over the outgoing model. It is likely to be offered with a choice of six-speed manual or seven-speed DSG twin-clutch gearboxes.
The vRS is due to arrive in the some global markets by July after the regular Octavia, which will be available from March.
