Skoda on Friday launched its fastest car in India, the Octavia RS. RS is the performance version of the regular Octavia but clocks triple digit speeds in just 6.8 seconds which keeps its performance aligned with some of the previous cars like the Jaguar XF and Mercedes C-Class.
Skoda has replaced the 1.8 litre mill in the Octavia RS with a 2.0-liter TSI turbocharged petrol engine which produces 227 hp at 6200 rpm and 350 Nm of peak torque at 4,600 rpm. This power-unit comes mated to a six-Speed DSG transmission. The car can reach a restricted top-speed of 250
