Why can't they follow Audi style and they will win

Because in the order of the volkswagen group, skoda is at the bottom of the food chain.

Assuming skoda followed audi style, and at the same audi price point of that, would you still buy a skoda?

138k for ambition and 150k for style. 230k for 2L Audi A4. But it’s 1.5L vs 2L.

Too much to digest Audi a3 1.5 L cheaper i presume

189k on sgCarMart.

@Daniu82 Audi A4 can get usually around 150-170k. that time when COE is 40kish , 140k+ . you can do the math from there

The Karoq makes a return with a 1.5TSI engine. It is marketed as the "New" Karoq but discerning consumers will know that this is not the upcoming facelift model. Anyway, it is back to VES Band B again (hurray!). Website did not say whether it features ACT technology, so not sure if the unit is identical to the one in the Scala.

@Daniu82 if Skoda style going at 150k vs A3 189k ,,,, whoop cool 39k just for the branding then is not worth it . And again provided both are on the same specifications and I not sure 🤔🤔🤔🤔

The price very difficult to swallow. 176k.

Noticed that the Style variant makes do with 18" alloy compared to 19" in the Sportline variant. And the multi-function sport steering wheel is replaced with a normal multi-function steering wheel. Not sure if a buyer considers these as upgrades.

Price difference only 2k. Wish this 2 variants are for my choosing when I bought last time. Last time ambition and style price difference is 10k.

Mine is 1.5 DSG.

@Shouyi Gonna say this like everyone else said this to me when the audi A4 was going at 140K base spec with 16" rims.

You are going to ditch the rims anyway.

Stock skoda rims, regardless 18" or 19" come with very very lovely offsets, lovely enough to throw in the trash when they get traded in.

Hi everyone, couldnt really find any reviews or much posts about the skoda rapid spaceback, I'm considering this car and just wanted to know if anyone who's driven it (or not... doesnt matter) have any reviews to share? what's the good or bad about it ?

I believe the lack of information pretty much sums up what you need to know about it.

It was a budget-oriented model when Skoda first relaunched in sg a couple years back.

For reviews, can read up the Seat Toledo one as the Rapid is essentially a reskinned Toledo in hatchback form (though Rapid has slightly more features).

Earlier units came in 1.0T form, the later ones in 1.4t (same engine as toledo and older golf/jetta)
