The exterior of the 2021 Skoda Octavia features a new grille with black vertical slats, all LED lighting, 17-inch alloy wheels, and the Skoda lettering on the bootlid. Inside, the model comes equipped with a 10.25-inch fully digital instrument console, a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system, shift-by-wire gearstick, thee-zone climate control and a two-spoke steering wheel.

Under the hood, the upcoming Skoda Octavia will be powered by a 2.0-litre TSI petrol engine that produces 187bhp and 320Nm of torque. This motor will be paired only to a seven-speed DSG automatic transmission. Upon launch, the new Skoda Octavia will rival the likes of the Hyundai Elantra.
