The all-new Skoda Octavia to hit the Irish market this March

The Octavia has received a facelift and will go on sale here in Ireland this March.

And Skoda Ireland has just announced pricing for the new Octavia, starting from €19,750 for Active 1.2 TSI (Petrol ) hatchback version. The entry-level diesel Octavia Active 1.6 TDI 90HP comes in at a cool €22,895 (with annual road tax of €190 ).

Since the arrival of the first generation Octavia in 1996, the Czech car manufacturer has produced more than five million units, with almost 55,000 new Octavia models sold in Ireland since its induction here in 1998. The Octavia is Skoda’s top performing model in the Irish market and has been in the top four Irish selling car models for the past two years running.

The new Octavia sees a number of exterior styling changes that encompass the new Skoda design language. These include the new front-end radiator grille, which has been expanded with the introduction of additional headlights with a crystalline look, and wider air inlets with a honeycomb structure in the redesigned bumper for a more dynamic look.

Cathal Kealey, PR manager at Skoda Ireland, said: “The Octavia has always been the heart and soul of Skoda in Ireland. It embodies all the brand’s strengths such as interior space, practicality, design quality, simply clever features and, above all, value for money. The new Octavia is no different. Feedback to date has been extremely positive and customers are excited about the fresh styling and enhanced features of the new Octavia.”

The Octavia Combi model will be available for an additional €1,000 over the hatchback version. Prices quoted exclude a €600 delivery charge.
