The Skoda Octavia Estate has long been known for its practicality and comfort, but the vRS variant takes things to the next level with a focus on performance, styling, and technology. The 2024 Skoda Octavia vRS 2.0 TSI DSG combines the spaciousness of an estate with the thrill of a sporty car, making it a versatile choice for drivers.

Additional features like a sport suspension lowered by 15mm, progressive steering, and an electronic differential lock ensure sharp handling and a more engaging driving experience. The Drive Mode Select with a dedicated Sport mode adds to its dynamic appeal.
