- The Skoda Rapid add's a nice little novelty when it comes to the C Segment cars. A fun Diesel motor, a brilliant gearbox, and some Czech styling instead of its plain jane German cousins. Here's what you need to know about the Rapid!
You can also check out the interiors of the Rapid here -

Happiness is after watching this video, purchasing the Skoda rapid and thinking what an beautiful decision you've made while watching it in 2018 :)
I'd say the same, after owning one for 3 months now. Pros: Long drives very effortless, Cruise control is absolutely brilliant - I use even in city, excellent mileage - I've got upto 27.5 on long drives, good high speed stability, premium feel inside, lot of safety features, good breaks, very smooth gear shifts. Cons: High engine noise at low speeds, dull interior colors, high transmission tunnel in the back, no dead pedal, sometimes gears dont shift to my linking so I have to use the triptonic. Also read that Skoda after sales service is bad, haven't gone there yet..
HI Jaibar, im buying the new rapid. do we have any rapid blog to have some discussions?
TO ALL MY FRIENDS POWERDRIFT VIEWERS
☺ "SKODA RAPID"🚘
I own newly skoda rapid
The car is simply awesome n good performance n best in it's class segment....
Only the negative is maintainace cost is high
Rest all upper hand 👍
I rate ☆☆☆☆.5 for 5
dileep reddy Looks like we have a happy man :D
+PowerDrift
Pls review fortuner 2015....
Guy's, try to review new skoda rapid....
Awesome PD.. really.. choosing b/w vento and rapid is like coke vs thumsup :P, the Rapid being Thums Up ;)
abhinav munnangi Tasting the thunder, are we? :P
PowerDrift Yeahhh ofcourse... ;)
you are wonderful and knowledgeable person… so it was expected out of you to comment about the reliability and durability of the notorious dsg . The biggest Catch of this car is that the USP is the biggest question mark also. THE INFAMOUS DSG…. specially in hot and humid India.
Hey iam actually looking to buy my first car so I needed some advice is the rapid worth it's money no doubt I love the looks the engine and the features but what about the after sales and the cost of ownership?
+Angad Singh Looking at our First Drive video, does it make a statement bold enough for you to buy this one?
Gonna buy an hatchback. Please suggest whether i could go for VW POLO GT TSI or the new Maruthi Swift. I need an engine to be punchy, peppy and with a great performance. It doesn't matter about other stuffs
Rakesh Kumar Punchy peppy and great performance go synonymous with the Polo GT. :)
Go for Polo GT TDI.. They didn't have a Polo GT TDI so threw a Vento with the same engine.. and boy! what an engine.. It goes to 4th gear without bothering the accelerator pedal and 10 kmph in 3rd gear is no problem.. and if you are in some terrible need for speed, it covers ground quite rapidly as well.. blown by the fantastic engine more than anything else and the engine is so so so much better than what the Hyundai, Maruti or even Honda has on offer!
WHAT ?? Same Power as 1.6 Tdi ? NOOOOO ! Soo much of turbolag from 1000 to 2000 RPM i always had to shift down the gear ! 1.6 had the best performance but this 1.5 TDI polo GT engine is just like a Polo GT TDI !
awesome vdo produced everytime with perfect blend of sounds and words.
Searched a lot in power drift but still can't find ur review on safari storm ... Hope u post it
Mohamed asif Hanifa Oh yeah! We haven't covered that yet. Planning to buy one?
PowerDrift yes

#25MillionOnPD #PDArmy
rock hard suspension with butter soft comfort at high speeds
+savio t This is one of the best out there :)
You guys are just amazing.. HATS OFF TO YOU..
Outstanding review as always expected from #PowerDrift. I really like the vehicle , I am confused between 1.5 tdi manual & 1.5 tdi automatic. Given I would have a annual car running between 30-35,000 km. Is the 1.5 dsg reliable on the long run?! or should I opt for the manual which be more comfortable & fun to drive?
Keenly waiting for your reply !
Thanks:)
Lots of Love to #POWERDRIFT
will there be a comparison b/w.. vw vento n skoda rapid ???!!!!
Guys ! Love your reviews! Keep them coming! :)
+PowerDrift Please help me out in this. Planing to buy a car but i'm literally confused which to buy. my opinion is between Skoda Rapid and Hyundai Verna. Petrol variant only. Please do Reply......
If petrol....go for honda city..manual
Red hot!! Vw vento sister almost its vento looking but all black theme made so diff...its best in class (skodarapid)...but hyundai verna .honda city.ford fiesta among all this makeup car(black themed sedan)
awsome awsome awsome review I must say !!!...The best host
KKunal Ghogrre Appreciate the love :)
Hai I need to know weather the ride comfort is good in city or rapid
Hope you guys can do a vento 2015 dsg vs honda city vs ciaz... Does the convenience of a dsg help when compared against honda city vx(o) idtech or its better to opt for ciaz zdi+ and save some hard earned cash... If the video is not possible, hope you guys can give some suggestion
+sandstorm725 We would love to make it happen :)
+PowerDrift thanks... Looking forward... Btw awesome videos 👍
#25MillionOnPD the Cezhian beauty looks just sporty n amazing n wid #PDarmy review need not say anything more....😉
+GIRISH RAVICHANDRAN You just keep annihilating the Replay button :D
you guys should do a "What Car to buy" video. one for each segment where you compare all(atleast the most popular ones) cars in that segment :) plij.
Mihir Tailor Our dear friends at Carwale have an app for the very same. Here you go - www.carwale.com/recommend-cars/
Awesome review! great job!
Can you guys do one for the new Volkswagen Vento 2015 too please...and compare with the Skoda Rapid
Rohan Albal You are the best reviewer :) I've ever seen , your points are very clear and really helps people . Awesome job Power drift U be the BEST ;)
+Shahan Salik Thank you Shahan. Much appreciation :)
Guys,loved ur vids......just a small req....please do a review of the new Volvo V40 and the Mini Countryman. Thanks n Cheerz
keeping in consideration vw dieselgate can i still look forward to buy this car? plzz advise..
+Nirav Vyas Our review speaks for itself!
+PowerDrift Bought the skoda rapid diesel AT style plus ➕ black package and after driving for month, I'am just enjoying the package and I think hardly there is any car in this segment which could reach the level of VW siblings. Thanks for the reply :-)
No words to say, brilliant camera work. Could you guys please make an video for upcoming Ford Figo 2015.
Pradeep Hangal We shall once we lay our hands on the Figo!
This car is superb! And the intro & review and anchor is superb
+ratheesh regunath Errr! It is not the Superb :P
+PowerDrift :D love it!
I am looking for a petrol car. Is Skoda rapid petrol good choice... I mean should go for it or is there any other good option for petrol cars
BHAVISHYA BHAT We would recommend you go for the Vento 1.2 liter AT petrol as it produces the same power but higher torque. The Skoda on the other hand also is a thirsty car and might strain your pockets.
PowerDrift thank u for the reply.. 😊 can u pls also suggest good petrol car under 7-8 lakhs rupees !
PowerDrift can tell me petrol rapid MT mileage In city and highway
I'm confused between skoda rapid with black package and Vento 2015. Which car has a more premium image in the market?
Nikhil Yadav Hands down the Vento 2015! Although both the cars are beautiful in their own sphere, the Vento has the edge when it comes to 'premium'
Your reviews are simply awesome, Powerdrift.. Waiting for your New Skoda Rapid 2017 review..
Thanks buddy. Make sure you enable Channel Notifications to get instant updates on our latest videos.
great vid as always... the vento and rapid are very close hope you guys do that vid soon...TAKE THAT XD love the music
Well, you have some real good video editors.
Do pass the message :)
Mr. White *Blush* - Editors! ;)
Zabardast Review dude!
Please do a comparison test against the Vento Highline Plus 😁
Waiting! 😊
I have this Rapid black page petrol engine which I have been using from past 1 year and all I can say is Fantabulous. One thing I have noticed is the engine temperature reaches to 90 degrees within minutes of ignition and then stays at 90 all throughout the journey however there was this one time in ghat section where it went 125 degrees with engine light on but after the cool down didn't face this again. Is this normal?
Akshay Upadhyaya How is the fuel efficiency? Acceptable? Im planning to get a petrol rapid too.
Akshay Upadhyaya can u tell me the mileage in the city and highway of petrol rapid MT I have booked the car so me asking delivery still 1 month is there so
I hope Solaris gets a gearbox upgrade, it desperately needs it to get in the "AUTOMATIC CLUB"
Nice Advertisement!
Hello power drift
I have one question.
.Which car should i buy i have a budget of 14 lac. And i want to buy automatic
Yes it is a cup ABLE car...

+Arshad Ali Thank you Arshad :D
The Vento is to Rapid what Coke is to Thumbs-up.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Haha! Good analogy there.
I was looking for a Well made Quality engineered car, hence I bought myself one, the best drivers car in this segment.
DSG is just amazing
Can you compare vento dsg vs rapid dsg
Love the Review!!!
The rims look cheap though
aka Travis They aren't! A touch of excellence we must say!

Anything specific that you are looking for in the car?
PowerDrift build quality price can be 12 lakh also
Amit Dhal vw vento..less dan 12 L ull get trendline vento+ 26k xtra for Celeste kit can make it almost to high end option.. vw ,,, oly if ur looking fr premium, strong, powerful and classy product..

Fantastic video.good job
Thank you Yuda!
PowerDrift please do new scoda Rapid review.2018.diesel full option.
which is more driveability car skoda rapid, fiat linea ,city
sravan p Linea > Rapid >City
By looking at the exterior.. it somehow resembles the one that we have here in Malaysia. It looks much like a VW Polo sedan..
I need a comparison review of rapid and vento
Someone has to cover the Fiesta vs Linea Vs Rapid/vento comparo for best overall car from the trio for obvious reasons
Pranav Aurora We shall try and cover that soon. :D
PowerDrift exactly the same request.. please
Can you provide me with a detailed review for maruti auzuki Ciaz .. Specifically the Petrol variant !
Yesh Agarwal We are yet to lay our hands on the Ciaz! :(

PLEASE REVIEW THE RAPID 1.6 TSI ENGINE
Please review the VW Vento All-star 2017 petrol or VW Vento petrol (any variant) Thanks !
Superb review...
Thank you! Tell us what you liked the most about the car.
Please review CIAZ ! Finally another monster INNOVATION from Suzuki after swift...............
Dude that is SKODA
Suzuki ??
Dude i know that
I wrote my review in their comments section requesting them to also make a review video for ciaz
See i have written please review ciaz
+Kushagra Mallick really you are calling ciaz a monster ?? dont you think its lil string word for ciaz
Why you guys didn't do a Rapid review for the last 2 years !!
Because we haven't got the media car ever since.
PowerDrift Do you guys have a blog as an extension to your Vlog reviews ? Maybe you can throw some more of what you think there...
so wait, does this balck paackage have the black roof? is that a panoramic sun roof?
pls do a vento review..
Skoda Rapid Petrol or Ciaz Petrol ???? please suggest
Anurag sharma Depends upon what are you looking for and how much money is there in your wallet. you need quality and safety go for SKODA, low maintenance and value for money ? SUZUKI
Also issues with this car includes
1)Abs not working due to damaged rear tyre rpm sensor.(cost around rs 4500 to repair)
2)Damage of diesel injector one after another for no specific reason from customer's side...(rs 23000 to replace one injector)
I strongly suggest to avoid skoda brand in kerala as the service in central kerala is pathetic and you are at the mercy of local work shops and multi brand workshops like bosch where the time to get repaired is unpredictable and also got less experienced manpower..
First comment Yea love you guys never miss your reviews great work good job
Nabi Raza Yaayyiee! Thank you. :D
New Vento PLS !
Ronit Sawant Ahhh! We have that listed Ronit!
PowerDrift again ... new vento pls
Hey what's wrong with you guys. It been nearly a 4 months since the launch of new Skoda Rapid why you guys aren't reviewing it?
when are they bringing the next generation rapide here? they seem to have launched the new one with new family look in Europe....why this partial treatment?
+Allen Fernando We'll have to wait for Skoda to release more details about the same. No news as of now.

pls tell me the name of backgroud music...please ROHAN i just love it...
+kishore kamal It comes from a private library and due to legal issues is unshareable :)
It's ok ROHAN i all ready found it.. Thabkx for ur reply
very good car but poor service backup.
Its hardly audible what you speaking, would you mind keeping music a bit low in your reviews ?
syed hassaan ali May we recommend another view with some good headphones. Or have you tried that and that isn't helping either?
Great review but I'm sorry. But this is killing me.. what's the song in the background?!
ojasp1 Thank you Ojas. The song comes from a private collection :D
Either you talk or play background music....
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Man you are amol palekar of the auto world.
alright! why don't you cut down the music volume. It's kinda irritating.
+sooraj p nair Well we did - th-cam.com/video/bGp8wLB84hA/w-d-xo.html
+PowerDrift a big hail to that. I loves #pdarmy videos in all way. One last request Don't kill the reviews with powerfull beats and music. just keep it natural.
Do I hear attack on titan ost? :P
Skoda rapid is a good performing car.But the service in Kerala especially for Ernakulam and near by districts is pathetic and zero customer satisfaction.
bro if u had used white colour car it might look more apealing
why do ull completely ignore the petrol versions ? cmon guys, there are still many petrol heads like me who want to see how they perform
Shriom Manerker Sigh! Unfortunately, that is what we get from the manufacturers but we assure you that there will be a lot of reviews of the other side of the coin too!
Sound and grapices not good
Re-upload :l
Adithya Chikkola Ummm, yeah! A few errors that have been sorted now.
