Skoda Octavia RS 245 | The Last Hurrah! | PowerDrift

  • It’s always a good day when you can have a go in the Octy RS, and with the new one, the Octavia RS 245, things just go up a notch or two. What makes this RS 245 all the more important is the fact that this will be the last Octavia RS that will come with only an internal combustion engine powering it. That’s right; the next Octy RS will be a hybrid. Will that be good? Bad? Now’s not the time to dwell on it. Now’s the time to focus on a simple question: should we all drop our plans and head out to buy the Octy RS 245 because it will have the last of the accessible performance internal combustion engines? That’s a question Rohan and Raunak are trying to answer. Watch to find out more and, as always, do let us know what you think in the comments!

    Also in the age of hybrid/electric cars what we will get going forward a few years down the line do you think we petrol head would get such cars ..?? Now that's a big question...

    I bought this car around 6 months back in Sydney. Over here, car came with 19 inch wheels. Overall, I love this car. It's quick , very practical and appealing. However, vrs 245 costs around $20,000 less than a BMW 3 series. If I was in India, I would rather buy a BMW than Octavia 245. Also, it sucks to drive a fwd on wet roads.

    It's DQ381
    And 381 doesn't stand for the amount of torque it can handle. It's just a code number.
    If that was the case RS 230 came with DQ 250, but still RS 230's torque was 350nm
