Škoda Auto India has announced to introduce the next generation Octavia RS in the Indian market later this year. The price is yet to be announced.
Pre-bookings for the all-new Octavia RS will open online on October 6, 2025 on the company’s website. The car will be available in India as a Fully-Built Unit (FBU), in limited volumes about 100 units.
Ashish Gupta, Brand Director, Škoda Auto India, said, “Earlier this year, we promised that a global icon would return to India. Today, I’m proud to announce that we’ve delivered on that promise with the Octavia RS.”
“This badge carries an unmatched legacy, one that has sparked passion among enthusiasts across the globe for over two decades. With the all-new Octavia RS launch in India, we’re not just bringing back a car. We’re bringing back an emotion. A legend that continues to define performance, aspiration, and the true spirit of driving.”
The RS badge, short for Rally Sport, has stood for performance, precision, and driving thrill across generations.
In India, the Octavia RS first arrived in 2004 as the country’s first turbocharged petrol engine passenger car.
