This time, the performance sedan will arrive as a Completely Built Unit (CBU), which means it\u2019s coming straight from Europe without local assembly. That also means exclusivity \u2014 and yes, a higher price tag.<\/span><\/p> <p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The RS will be based on the facelifted fourth\u2011generation Octavia, but with all the sporty touches that make the RS badge so desirable. Think gloss\u2011black honeycomb grille, aggressive bumpers, aero\u2011styled alloy wheels, and a subtle boot\u2011lip spoiler. Even the exhaust tips get a black finish, hinting at the power within.<\/span><\/p> <h2 aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Skoda Octavia RS Price in India: Premium for Performance<\/span><\/h2> <p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Being a full import, the Skoda Octavia RS price in India is expected to hover around \u20b950 lakh (ex\u2011showroom). <\/span><\/p> <p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">That\u2019s a big jump from the last locally assembled Octavia, which topped out near \u20b931 lakh, but the RS is playing in a different league now.<\/span><\/p> <p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">For that premium, you\u2019re getting a sedan that blends everyday usability with genuine performance credentials \u2014 something that\u2019s becoming increasingly rare in the Indian market.<\/span><\/p> <h2 aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Skoda Octavia RS Features: Sport Meets Tech<\/span><\/h2> <p><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-58137\" src=\"https:\/\/caronphone.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Skoda-Octavia-RS-Features_-Sport-Meets-Tech_.webp\" alt=\"2025 Skoda Octavia RS\" width=\"1440\" height=\"720\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caronphone.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Skoda-Octavia-RS-Features_-Sport-Meets-Tech_.webp 1440w, https:\/\/caronphone.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Skoda-Octavia-RS-Features_-Sport-Meets-Tech_-300x150.webp 300w, https:\/\/caronphone.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Skoda-Octavia-RS-Features_-Sport-Meets-Tech_-1024x512.webp 1024w, https:\/\/caronphone.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Skoda-Octavia-RS-Features_-Sport-Meets-Tech_-768x384.webp 768w, https:\/\/caronphone.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Skoda-Octavia-RS-Features_-Sport-Meets-Tech_-150x75.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><br \/> In the cabin, the RS \u2018spa\u2019 treatment continues. <\/span><\/p> <ul style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <li data-aria-posinset=\"1\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Sport seats with contrast stitching<\/span><\/li> <li data-aria-posinset=\"2\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Flat\u2011bottom steering wheel<\/span><\/li> <li data-aria-posinset=\"3\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Aluminum pedals<\/span><\/li> <li data-aria-posinset=\"4\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">RS badging throughout<\/span><\/li> <\/ul> <p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">There\u2019s also a massive 13\u2011inch touchscreen infotainment system.
