<p><strong>Thrill at the Core</strong></p>



<p>At the heart of the Octavia RS is a 2.0 TSI turbocharged petrol engine, producing 195 kW (265 PS) of power and 370 Nm of torque. Paired with a 7-speed DSG automatic transmission, the car accelerates from 0-100 km/h in just 6.4 seconds, with a top speed electronically limited to 250 km/h. Its advanced chassis setup, progressive steering, and sports suspension deliver precise handling and driving dynamics.</p>



<p><strong>Statement on Wheels</strong></p>



<p>The all-new Octavia RS continues Škoda’s bold design language, accentuated by full LED Matrix headlights, LED tail lamps with dynamic indicators, and glossy black styling elements. Sitting on striking 19-inch Elias anthracite alloy wheels with low-profile 225/40 R19 sports tyres, the car projects an unmistakably sporty and aggressive stance. Measuring 4,709 mm in length, 1,829 mm in width, and 1,457 mm in height, along with a wheelbase of 2,677 mm, and a segment-leading boot capacity of 600 litres (expandable to 1,555 litres with the rear seats folded), the Octavia RS balances sleek proportions with everyday usability. Its dynamic silhouette is further complemented by a choice of five vibrant colour options: Mamba Green, Candy White, Race Blue, Magic Black, and Velvet Red.</p>



<p><strong>Athletic Elegance</strong></p>



<p>Inside, the Octavia RS strikes a balance between sportiness and premium comfort. The cabin features Suedia/Leather upholstery with red contrast stitching, Sports front seats with electric adjust, memory, heating, and massage functions, along with ambient lighting, and a virtual cockpit. Customers also benefit from three-zone climate control, wireless charging, and a 32.77cm infotainment system with wireless connectivity for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.</p>



<p><strong>Smarter. Safer. Sharper.</strong><strong></strong></p>



<p>The Octavia RS is equipped with Škoda’s latest ADAS suite, including Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Lane Assist, and Intelligent Park Assist. Safety is further enhanced with 10 airbags, a 360-degree Area View camera, ISOFIX child seat mounts, a Head-Up Display, and driving stability systems. The car also features the premium Canton 675W 11-speaker sound system with subwoofer, along with an electrically operated boot with virtual pedal, and a bunch of Simply Clever features, among others.</p>



<p><strong>Owning the Extraordinary</strong><strong></strong></p>



<p>As with every Škoda, the Octavia RS is backed by Škoda Auto India’s industry-best ownership package, including a 4-year/100,000 km warranty and 4-year complimentary Road-Side Assistance.</p>



<p><strong>The Legacy</strong></p>



<p>Launched in 2001, the Octavia was Škoda’s very first car in India and set the tone for the brand’s identity as a maker of aspirational, driver-focused, and solid-built cars. The RS first came to India in 2004 as the first-ever turbocharged petrol engine passenger car in the country. Now, in its latest RS form, the Octavia has returned as a symbol of Škoda’s enduring commitment to India, bringing together legacy, innovation, and pure performance.</p>

<p class="has-text-align-center" style="font-size:24px"><em> Announces ₹30,000 customer benefits for first 5,000 bookings</em></p>



<p><strong>MUMBAI:</strong> Škoda Auto India has launched the all-new Slavia Monte Carlo edition in India. Taking the sports theme further, the company also introduced an all-new Sportline range within the Kushaq and Slavia lineup and announced a path-breaking offer for these cars upping the value and choice quotient for Indian customers.</p>



<p>Commenting on the new introductions, Mr. Petr Janeba, Brand Director, Škoda Auto India said, “The Monte Carlo badge has a strong connection with customers, reflecting the spirit of sport and victory. I am happy to share that we launched the Slavia Monte Carlo today. This is part of our strategy to grow the Škoda brand in India, which is one of the largest markets for us outside Europe. This special car will have a strong appeal with customers looking for unique, subtle, and sporty aesthetics, projecting a discrete sense of style. It is an homage to our 112 years in Rallye Monte Carlo, 129 years of rich heritage, and 24 years in India. We have also introduced two new trims – Slavia Sportline and Kushaq Sportline &#8212; reflecting our intent to keep the range evolving and contemporary, offering greater choice and value to customers. The Sportline is perfect for customers who seek the sporty aesthetics of the Monte Carlo at a more accessible price point. Together with the new Monte Carlo and Sportline offerings, we look forward to substantially growing the Škoda family in India.”</p>



<p><strong>The anniversary offer</strong></p>



<p>As the launch of this all-new range marks the 112th anniversary of the company’s debut at Rallye Monte Carlo, Škoda Auto India has lined up benefits for customers buying the sport-inspired Monte Carlo and Sportline range of the Kushaq and Slavia. The first 5,000 customers booking any of these four cars will receive benefits of ₹30,000. The offer is operational immediately and will be valid until September 6, 2024.</p>



<p><strong>Monte Carlo in the metal</strong></p>



<p>At the heart of this car beats the proven and tested 1.0 and 1.5 TSI engines. The 1.0 TSI is available with a six-speed manual and automatic. The 1.5 TSI sends power to the front wheels through a seven-speed DSG. The cars come exclusively in the Tornado Red and Candy White colors. Both these options come with a contrasting Deep Black roof as standard. The Window Garnish houses an all-black theme as do the ORVMs. The black treatment continues to the Radiator Grille Surround, the Garnish around the Fog Lamp, and over the Black R16 Alloy wheels.</p>



<p>Continuing the subtle embellishments are the Monte Carlo badging on the front fenders and the Darkened Taillights. Sporty, black spoilers adorn the car’s front and side skirts and are also on the lip of the boot at the rear. The rear also gets a Black Sporty Rear Diffuser and a Black Bumper Garnish. Rounding off the Monte Carlo highlights outside are the subtle and classy door handles finished in Dark Chrome and all the lettering in the exteriors of the Slavia Monte Carlo are in Black.</p>



<p><strong>Monte Carlo within</strong></p>



<p>Inside, the car wears the Monte Carlo Red Theme interior in the all-black sporty cabin. The Décor Frame and air vents all adorn black. As do the Lower dashboard, the Centre Console Décor, and the Handbrake push button. The steering wheel and gear knob replace their chrome inserts with all-black ones. The dark, sporty theme allaying Škoda Auto’s rally roots, continues in the rest of the interior with the handles all taking on a dark demeanour.</p>



<p>To lend the black interiors with dashes of sporty dynamism are subtle slashes of red across the interiors. The center of the dash has a single red element continuing through the vents. The Monte Carlo Leatherette seats in Black are bordered by red elements. The two-spoke steering wheel also has red stitching on it, and the black and red Monte Carlo Theme extends to the infotainment system and the driver’s virtual cockpit. However, the first visual homage before entering this sporty cabin is the Monte Carlo inscribed scuff plates by the front doors. The driver will immediately notice the Sporty Alu Pedals in the footwell area as they stand out in this red and black Monte Carlo-themed décor.</p>

</figure>



<p><strong>The Sportline</strong></p>



<p>Škoda Auto India also expanded the Kushaq and Slavia range with the debut of the Sportline across the two best-selling Škoda cars. In a move that is the result of customer feedback, Škoda Auto India has now introduced the Sportline, which adds to the existing Classic, Signature, Monte Carlo, and Prestige variants of the Kushaq and Slavia furthering choice and value for customers.</p>



<p>The enhancements</p>



<p>The Sportline trim of both the Kushaq and the Slavia gets the blacked-out design elements from the Monte Carlo like the taillights, aero kit, and other details. The Slavia Sportline gets R16 Black alloy wheels and the Kushaq is shod with R17 Black alloys. The Sportline also gets LED Headlamps and DRLs in both the Kushaq and Slavia</p>



<p><strong>Features within</strong></p>



<p>The Sportline, like the rest of the Kushaq and Slavia line-up, comes standard with six airbags. In addition, this sporty trim gets an electric sunroof, alloy foot pedals, a connectivity dongle, rain-sensing wipers, and an auto-dimming internal rear-view mirror among various other features.  </p>



<p><strong>Enhanced choice and safety</strong></p>



<p>With the addition of the Sportline, the Kushaq and Slavia range further expands with both cars now available in the Classic, Signature, Sportline, Monte Carlo, and Prestige variants. Every Škoda comes standard with a minimum of six airbags. Further, the Kushaq and the Slavia have a full 5-star rating for adult and child safety under Global NCAP. The Superb and the Kodiaq are rated the same under Euro NCAP. With the addition of the Slavia Monte Carlo and the Sportline trim across the Kushaq and Slavia, Škoda Auto India has further expanded its fleet of 5-star safe cars.</p>

<p>Speaking on the enhancement, <strong>Petr Janeba, Brand Director, Škoda Auto India</strong>, said: “<em>We have been in India for nearly a quarter of a century, and our commitment to this market is absolute. We have always been looking at offering more in product and affiliated actions. Since the announcement of our all-new compact SUV planned for 2025, we have maintained that with this new car, we are targeting new markets, younger customers, and more accessibility to the brand. While the new compact SUV will open new markets for us, we have achieved some efficiencies in the Kushaq and the Slavia, which has enabled us to enhance the value in our offerings and pass on the benefits to our customers and fans.</em>”</p>



<p><strong>The variants</strong></p>



<p>The Kushaq and Slavia – earlier available as Active, Ambition, and Style – are now rechristened as Classic, Signature, and Prestige. The Kushaq, in addition to these three variants also gets the Onyx on the value end and the Monte Carlo at the premium end of the line-up. The all-new pricing is applicable on all engine and transmission options of the Kushaq and select variants on the Slavia. Both cars are powered by a 1.0 TSI petrol with a six-speed manual and automatic, and a 1.5 TSI petrol with a six-speed manual and seven-speed DSG. Both the Kushaq and Slavia come with six airbags as standard across the range and have achieved a full 5 stars for adults and children under the Global NCAP tests, reflecting the brand’s uncompromising stand on safety.</p>



<p><strong>The benefits</strong></p>



<p>Customers stand to benefit by upto 10% based on choice of model, variants, engines, and transmission. The maximum benefit will be on the Kushaq Monte Carlo, which will now be offered at an outstanding price point, while the Slavia entry point will be extremely accessible. These new prices also enable customers and fans to avail additional reductions in registration and insurance further stretching the value proposition for the entire line-up.</p>



<p>Škoda Auto India recently introduced six airbags as standard across all its variants. The new pricing continues making safety a top priority and offers premium features like ventilated seats, electric seat adjust, wireless Android Auto and Apple Carplay, a 25.4 cm in-car entertainment interface, and a sub-woofer embedded in the boot among other comforts.</p>



<p><strong>Customized and Tailor-made offers</strong></p>



<p>The new value proposition on Kushaq and Slavia will be offered with complete freedom for customers to select what best suits their preferences. This can be clubbed across three large pillars. The first is the unmatched price leverage that customers can enjoy. The second will be in the form of after-sales offers, maintenance packages, and the overall cost of ownership. And thirdly, are the sales levers and value-added services.</p>



<p>Customers can select from a choice of exchange &amp; corporate bonus options, special finance &amp; insurance schemes run through the banking partners, extended warranty, and a host of service and maintenance packages. In the overall cost of ownership and customer experience, the superior mileage offered on both Kushaq (*upto 19.76 Km/L) and Slavia (**upto 20.32 Km/L), along with transparency, quicker servicing timelines, and the expanding dealer footprint have taken forward Škoda Auto India’s strong focus on customer delight.</p>



<p>“<em>Škoda Auto India is ramping up the network and personnel to get ready for a high volume increase with the upcoming launch of the Compact SUV. Our dealers need to be motivated and profitable, with highly trained and experienced sales consultants. And that’s why we have launched the best-ever value proposition on the Kushaq, all across the country, supported with tailor-made, unique customer offers in line with customers’ needs and preferences,</em>” added <strong>Janeba</strong>.</p>



<p><strong>More sustainable</strong></p>



<p>The company’s 1.0 TSI engine recently got certified as E20 compliant by ARAI (Automotive Research Authority of India) and has already debuted in the new Kushaq Onyx AT with other 1.0 TSI cars to roll out soon. The 1.5 TSI is currently undergoing testing, the results of which will be made available by Q4 2024.</p>



<p>This certification makes the 1.0 TSI the first ever powerplant in India to receive certification from a governing authority. It is in line with government policy requiring every car in India to be E20 compliant from April 1, 2025. Engines that are E20 compliant run on 20% ethanol and 80% petrol, reducing the amount of fossil fuel consumed, reducing emissions, and increasing sustainability.</p>



<p><strong>The Škoda Peace of Mind</strong></p>



<p>Škoda Auto India has a fleet that is fully 5-star safe for both adults and children as tested by Global NCAP and Euro NCAP. The company also offers a 4-year/100,000kms standard warranty on Kushaq and Slavia, with an option to extend it to 6 years/150,000kms making it one of the most comprehensive warranty packages in the company’s endeavor to offer a hassle-free ownership and maintenance experience. The all-new pricing continues access to these customer-friendly packages.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="has-text-align-center" style="font-size:24px"><em>Upgrade makes it the most affordable automatic in its segment</em></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The Kushaq Onyx is a high-value option for customers seeking the most favored features from higher variants</li>



<li>Available exclusively with the 1.0 TSI engine</li>



<li>Is available with a six-speed manual transmission and sees the introduction of a six-speed automatic</li>



<li>Brings in Hill Hold Control, and Paddle Shifter among other new features from your favorite higher variant</li>



<li>All versions are now equipped with six airbags as standard</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>MUMBAI:</strong> Škoda Auto India, in its strategy of continuous product actions, has implemented one more enhancement in its 5-star safe fleet &#8212; the introduction of the Kushaq Onyx AT. The Onyx was originally released in Q1 2023 based on customer feedback to provide satisfaction and high value to Škoda fans and customers. Škoda Auto India, based on the latest customer feedback, has now further enhanced the Kushaq Onyx with an automatic transmission and a host of new features, making it the most affordable automatic in its segment.</p>



<p>Speaking on the product action, <strong>Petr Janeba, Brand Director, Škoda Auto India</strong>, said, <em>“The Onyx variant has been a key addition in our line-up combining the value of the Active trim with features from the higher variants. This new Kushaq Onyx offering is in response to feedback from our customers, which points to a healthy demand for an automatic variant at a more accessible price point. Our value proposition makes this Kushaq the most affordable automatic in its entire segment. Offering a hassle-free ownership experience, getting closer to our customers and constantly listening to our customers is our endeavor and a key part of our growth strategy.”</em></p>



<p>The Onyx AT, like the Onyx before it, slots between the current Active and Ambition variants of Škoda’s best-selling SUV. The exteriors see features from the higher Ambition variant making it to this Kushaq. One of them is the Škoda Crystalline LED headlamps with DRLs. Further enhancing visibility and safety are the front fog lamps with the static cornering function. The rear sees the wiper and defogger. With this iteration, Škoda Auto India continues with the Tecton Wheel covers and ‘Onyx’ badging in the B-pillars.</p>



<p>Inside, the Onyx AT gets even more substantial updates. Topping the list of additions are Hill Hold Control and Paddle Shifters. The driver now gets a 2-spoke, multifunction, leather steering wheel with a chrome scroller. The cabin also gets Škoda’s Climatronic with the touch panel, and the scruff plates in the front get an ‘Onyx’ inscription on them. Customers of the car will also get Onyx-themed cushions and textile mats as standard. All new in this latest product update is the availability of six airbags as standard in the Onyx AT.</p>



<p>The Onyx AT is powered exclusively by Škoda Auto India’s proven 1.0 TSI turbo-charged three-cylinder petrol engine. It develops 85 kW (115 ps) of power and 178 Nm of torque and is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The Global New Car Assessment Programme crash-tested the Kushaq under its newer and stricter protocols in October 2022. The SUV scored 29.64 points out of 34 for adult occupant safety and 42 out of a possible 49 points for child safety. The Kushaq was the first made-in-India car to score a full five stars for both adult and child protection.</p>



<p>The Kushaq sits on the MQB-A0-IN platform that was specifically developed for India by teams in India and the Czech Republic. It was designed with a focus on high localization – 95% &#8212; and low cost of ownership – starting at Rs 0.46 per kilometer. The Kushaq was introduced in July 2021 and Škoda’s second product on this platform – the Slavia sedan – debuted in March 2022. The company began 2024 with the announcement of an all-new compact SUV based on this platform. The vehicle will make its debut in 2025.</p>

<p><strong>PUNE:</strong> Škoda Auto Volkswagen India Private Limited (SAVWIPL) is celebrating a series of significant achievements at its state-of-the-art vehicle and engine manufacturing facility in Chakan, India.</p>



<p>Since its inception, SAVWIPL has played a pivotal role in India&#8217;s automotive landscape. The company has surpassed a remarkable milestone, having produced over 1.5 million vehicles at its Chakan Plant since it rolled out the first car – the Skoda Fabia in 2009 from the facility. This achievement includes iconic models from the Volkswagen Group such as the VW Vento and Polo, Škoda Fabia and Rapid along with new-age models based on the famed MQB-A0-IN platform – VW Taigun and Virtus, Škoda Kushaq and Slavia.</p>



<p>Over the past years, the Engine Shop at the Chakan facility has produced more than 300,000 units of world-class and highly efficient engines for the Volkswagen Group. This achievement is further strengthened by SAVWIPL&#8217;s dedication to domestic sourcing, with the 1.0L TSI engines highly relying on components manufactured within India. This commitment aligns perfectly with the nation&#8217;s ‘Make in India’ initiative. SAVWIPL has also established a well-balanced approach to automation. While leveraging technology for efficiency, the company recognizes the value of human expertise and continues to hone local talent further leveraging the ‘Skill India’ movement.</p>



<p>Adding to the list of accomplishments, Škoda Auto Volkswagen India also celebrated the 300,000 unit production milestone for the popular INDIA 2.0 car range, which includes VW Taigun and Virtus, Škoda Kushaq, and Slavia. Engineered in India, For India, and the World these are some of the safest made-in-India cars having achieved a full five-star safety rating for both adult and child occupants by the Global NCAP.</p>

The milestones achieved by Škoda Auto Volkswagen India resonate far beyond national borders, reflecting our commitment to excellence and innovation on a global scale. Our decade-long investment in the Engine Shop and the remarkable output of 1.5 million vehicles at the Chakan Plant, showcases India&#8217;s pivotal role in our global strategy. These achievements not only signify our capabilities but also highlight the immense potential of the Indian market in driving our growth trajectory forward</em>.”</p>



<p><br><strong>Dr Johannes Neft, Škoda Auto a.s. Board Member for Technical Development</strong> added, “<em>Achieving the 1.5 million production milestone is a testament to the exceptional engineering capabilities of our Indian manufacturing facility.

The global team greatly values the insights and expertise, and these contributions are integral to developing new, cutting-edge products for India and the world. This highlights the strength and ingenuity of our Indian operations, positioning us at the forefront of automotive innovation worldwide.</em>”</p>



<p><strong>Piyush Arora, Managing Director &amp; CEO, Škoda Auto Volkswagen India Private Limited</strong>, said, “<em>I am immensely proud of these achievements within our local landscape. The significant output of 1.5 million vehicles at our Chakan Plant, coupled with the production milestone of four successful MQB models and the 10-year journey of our Engine Shop stand testament to our dedication to India&#8217;s automotive industry and SAVWIPL’s significant contribution to the nation’s talent and workforce.

<p><strong>MUMBAI:</strong> In what is its first product action after achieving one lakh sales in two years, Škoda Auto India has introduced the Slavia Style Edition of its best-selling, five-star safe, crash-tested sedan.</p>

It comes in very limited numbers, for a very focussed set of our customers, but will be accessible across our 200-plus sales touchpoints across India.</em>”</p>



<p><strong>The equipment</strong></p>



<p>The Style Edition is slotted above the top-of-the-line Style variant of the Slavia. It comes standard with features like a Dual Dash Camera.

This Edition x all of its exclusivity and additional features is priced at a reasonable premium of ₹30,000 over the equivalent Style variant of the Slavia sedan.</p>



<p><strong>Safety</strong></p>



<p>The Slavia Style Edition carries forward the safety legacy of the Slavia coming standard with six airbags and a full 5-star rating for adult and child safety under Global NCAP’s newer, stricter test protocols. It further lengthens the company’s fleet of fully crash-tested 5-star-rated cars for adult and child occupants.</p>



<p><strong>Made-for-India. Ready for the world</strong></p>



<p>The Slavia sedan, like the Kushaq SUV, is based on the MQB-A0-IN platform that was developed specifically for the Indian market. The platform was jointly developed by teams in India and Czech with a focus on low maintenance costs, high localisation and quick turnaround times for service and spares, while retaining the traditional qualities of Škoda DNA like driving dynamics and safety, among others. The car is localised by upto 95% and comes with a standard warranty of 4 years or 100,000 kms and an optional warranty of upto 8 years or 150,000 kms with a plethora of maintenance and service packages to enhance the ownership experience and lower maintenance costs for the customer.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>MUMBAI: Skoda Auto India has achieved a significant milestone by selling over 1,00,000 cars in the last two years.
