Got this car in Aug-20, so I've been driving in a few months now...... And I absolutely love it!
Practical - I can load a baby stroller and a wheelchair in the boot and still have space for groceries. The liftback boot is very convenient during loading/unloading.
Exterior looks - Love the sports rim design, 19-inch tyres, body shape, dual exhaust + spoiler, and even the split headlights looks unique. (I know others might differ)
Interior - Infotainment system is good, everything is where it should be in terms of ease of use and functionality
Performance - What can you say. Step on the gas and Go go go!
Locally, it has won at least 5 awards. 590l boot, VW GTI engine, shares VW and Audi spare and modification parts, Depreciation of $11k(for me) , 0-100 in 6.4 secs. So, at least on paper and paper awards, how does it feel to actually own a rs 245? To make a car really worth the cost, to me at least, it should fulfil as many roles it can serve. An effortless cruiser with 245hp and a 7 wet DSG, tick. Weekend getaway to KL needing lots of boot space, check. Need 375 nm for the quick overtake, check mate. Sublime handling since it shares the same suspension as the award winning VW golf GTI. Interior quality and feel is up there and even higher at the same price range. If you like the performance and humble sleeper look, this will compliment your principles.
I do not own this car but was under one of my shortlist after testing a friend's car out. Am in love with the torque and power for this model. For its price range, will definitely recommend this to anyone who loves the kick from what's under the hood.
Masculine premium sedan with affordable price tag and practicality
The Octavia is a fun and practical car. With an engaging drive as well as a luxurious but well thought out interior, this car is a no-brainer as compared to other cars in its category. Other small details such as puddle lights at the side mirrors, compartments to hold umbrella etc were a pleasant surprise. Highly recommended!
