Inside's Out On New Octavia

1pix.gif

_S.gif koda opened its doors at Geneva to give us a first look at the interior of the new Octavia. And it showed the company is sticking with its functional, no-nonsense style.

 

The cabin is neat and well made, even if the dark dashboard is lacking in exciting design features and the fabrics which have been used for the seating have more than a hint of the Eighties about them.

In all other respects, though, the Octavia looks like a fine package. It promises class-leading boot space of 560 litres, and will also benefit from the VW Group's excellent 1.6 and 2.0-litre FSI petrol powerplants and the 2.0-litre TDI diesel engines.

 

Cheaper versions will get the current model's 1.4 and 1.6-litre petrol units, while the 1.9 TDI oil-burner will also be carried over from the existing line-up. The new car arrives in British showrooms in September. It will be sold alongside the current model, which is set to continue in estate and vRS forms until the two versions are replaced in 2005. Prices are not expected to increase significantly over those of the current Octavia line-up.
