Originally designed to bring affordable and high-quality motoring to as many people as possible at an unbeatable price, the design and engineering philosophies behind the Octavia remain the same today. Over the years, the multi-million selling Octavia has proved itself to be one of the most adaptable and practical cars on the market. It has set Land Speed Records, been transformed into a title-winning rally car and become one of the most trusted cars used by our emergency services. While the Octavia has been a huge sales success around the world, the British have developed one of the strongest bonds with ŠKODA’s brilliant all-rounder. More than 500,000 examples have found loving homes on our shores since the very first 1959 model rolled onto UK roads. And, six decades later, it remains ŠKODA’s top-seller with a range that includes nine equipment levels, 14 engine and transmission options and two body styles.
