Автор: В Чехии наконец официально представили Skoda Octavia 2020. Лифтбэк и универсал четвертого поколения поступят в продажу в Европе с января по цене от 20 тыс. евро. 
The new Skoda Octavia has retained the platform of its predecessor but has become slightly larger — 4689 mm in length with an unchanged wheelbase of 2686 mm. The liftback and station wagon look familiar and in front resemble Skoda Scala.
Among the innovations, the LED headlights in the basic version should be noted. 
The interior features an unusual two-spoke steering wheel, an improved virtual instrument cluster, and a touchscreen with a diagonal of up to 10 inches. In DSG robot versions, there is also a small gear shift joystick like in VW Golf 8. 
A head-up display and interior lighting with changeable colors appeared, and a three-zone climate control is offered for the first time. In the rear row, the legroom was increased, and the trunk volume increased to 600 liters in the liftback and 640 liters in the station wagon.
For the Skoda Octavia 2020, gasoline turbo engines of 1.0 liter (110 hp), 1.5 liters (130 and 150 hp), and 2.0 liter (190 hp) will be offered, as well as two-liter turbodiesels with 115, 150, and 200 hp. For the first time, a 201 hp Skoda Octavia hybrid capable of driving 50 km in electric mode is available.
