Skoda Rapid 1.5 TDI DSG | First Drive | Autocar India

After two years of using it normally I upgrade stock tires to 225-50-15 And stage one code 6 ,now its like a beast, mileage also increased

Rapid is the best car in the segment. Using it for 4 years now. Used other cars from the segment but nothing like this. Skoda service has improved a lot & now i feel its good nothing to complain.Just go for it.

Fallen in love after everyone against my love for skoda nothing is as good tjis beuty 1lac done

Dsg maintenance cost? Compare to its manual gear box?

Resale is really very pathetic

I own 2018 dsg ! And i am damb proud of this thing hyundais hondas and marutis dont come near her! If you think i am lieing then you must drive her first! And then decide

Skoda India is one of the worst brands for after sales services...also the suspensions of rapid 2019 are faulty...I have lost 3 tyres because of this fault... anyone considering to buy skoda..plz be ready to face after sales ordeal u will go through...

To much price . After sale service is worst of skoda

the ugliest Sedan I have ever seen ha ha

Rapid and vento both r twins.
After buying a vento I was in doubt for about a year as I made a mistake instead of buying a Japanese car. But after a year I got a chance to ride honda city for about 40 kilometres and thereafter I realised my decision was right. And also i decided never to buy the Japanese Korean toys. Japanese and Korean cars cannot give u so much of safety, which u can feel in Volkswagen, its a class above the honda Toyota and many other. Moreover Japanese cars looks so ugly, Volkswagen looks as beautiful as a Taj Mahal, which can never goes out of date

My suggestion to others don't become fools, if u feel Volkswagen is expensive then I will suggest u to buy a used vento instead of swift i20 honda Toyota, which will be more cost cheaper then Japanese and Korean cars.

Ab to black.alloy wheel aare rapid m

How is the Skoda dispel compared to the petrol ? Automatic version .

If you want solid german build, driving pleasure, understated appearance, safety buy Skoda rapid/vento.
If you need powerful diesel, style, good aftersales, resale and high quality interiors buy 2018 verna, if you dont mind an average engine honda gives a good mix of all.., buy ciaz if value for money is your priority.....

PLEASE REVIEW THE RAPID 1.6 TSI ENGINE

good review

Skoda Sounds more like an expensive watch brand more then a car company

Which car should I buy Skoda rapid or Hyundai Verna or Suzuki ciaz or VW vento. Any suggestions plz

No rear camera, you must be joking! What they couldn't fit a camera in there. It's just stupid.

Rapid is better than City & Ciaz. you can feel the power pf Engine while driving it. also i love it's simplistic look.

Sir which is best automatic petrol c segment sedan ? My preference is fun to drive with a good milage.

The skoda rapid is very similar to the vw vento are they brothers?

Don't buy skoda simply clever in cheating after one year car just a piece of scrap and u have heartache too go for maruti hundai spacial honda for best quality

Nice car in this segment

VW Jetta

Oh God there are so many good sedans under 10 lakhs which one to choose

An eye catching sedan💗😘😘😘

why there is difference b/w back side of monte carlo edition lanched in India and monte carlo lanched in other countries . Back side is little bit lifted upwards like sports cars in monte carlo edition lanched in countries other than India

vw vento in skoda form. vw owns skoda

Excellent review. Please suggest Rapid MT petrol or diesel. Average running is about 20000KM a year
Thanks

What is use turbo charger , only 5 bhp is increased?

Pls do a review for the Monte Carlo version !

I book montecarlo edition yesterday.. it looks amazing.. I got it with 4 years of free maintenance and 30k discount..

Is Skoda Serviceing n repairs good in India? Wondering if maintainence will be more expensive than maybe a City or Verna? Any idea?

Past 2 years am enjoying Rapid 1.6 AT drove from Mumbai up to kerala 2 times during vacations ..... Simply.......... Superb car .... This is my 5th car but this is the best out of all my old cars !!

They should have put in the vertical chrome strips in the front grill for they make the car look classy and a segment above. How much did Skoda save by skimping on that?

Is this car ensambled in India?

Maruti Ciaz is best in this class

105 hp?!! Even Honda Fit had 107 hp in 2007 and we used to make fun calling it a lawnmower! 😂😂
I get what is considered "great and amazing" in some parts of the world.

getting a maruti / hyundai, might have been a choice of majority of our society, bcoz of low cost maintenance & great mileage due 2 its thin light body. but it z definitely very weak n more prone 2 injury / life risk in case of any accident. d cost of maintenance isnt costly than ur life. thats why most of d people now a days prefer german engineering. intelligent ppl are preferring vw polo (hatchback with sheer built quality) over maruti dzire(compact sedan with very light body structure), as both costs around 8-9 lakhs. life z precious. dont bank on d afterlife.

Hello,
Nice review. I would like to share my my experience with you guys as owning the colour (Carbon Steel) DSG Skoda Rapid 2017. The car is best handler in its segment. The colour looks beautiful i personally don't like the braking on automatic cars (this is a person to person view) . I've grown in love with this car have ridden it 10,000 Km in 3 months. Few problems i've faced if you sit up 4/5 people in car the car is sure to scrape on speed breakers . The mud flaps are very easy to break over our Indian roads. DRL cannot be switched off ( that can be irritating for some) . This car is absolutely worth the ₹. The ride might be too hard for some people's liking

The smoothest the quietest the finest the swiftest and the more luxuriest of them all is the top end HONDA CITY PETROL. These skoda hard suspensioned newbe's are not a 'stiff' compitation to honda's 'smooth' refinement:) and its nt even debatable!

test drived in dehradun.....wow nice

better go with ameo TDI, lot cheaper for same engine and gearbox

Only if VW can freshen up their design language like Hyundai and Maruti, they can expect their sales to boost up.

as I've been an owner of fiat and tata brands, but know thinking of adding skoda rapid in my room.
love their superb fit, finish and build quality.

Screw this, I'm waiting for Fiat Egea/tippo to launch in India which is far better looking than Rapid and Vento. But any idea when it's gonna launch?

Thanks

The best in class sedan. compared to Vento or City, 7 speed DSG Automatic Transmission remains the differentiating factor. With day running lights & a front grill similar to that of Octavia / Superb, this is definitely worth it. Awaiting 2017 make cars to come to book it!

i have got new model honda city. Now i want this car :(
