Skoda octavia combi RS test - Spacious, affordable, with a handy Word so you know Skoda and so you know the Octavia Combi. The Kompaktklassler of Bohemia, which goes through due to its mass and epidemics also loose as Mittelklassler, can but also quite different. Racy sports around, at least that is the idea that behind the special model Octavia Combi RS according to Skoda. Whether there actually a racy disposition in there? In our test, we want to find that out.

RS two-liter turbos: real racing cyclist?

Who wants to be sporty on the road as the Octavia Combi RS, you need of course above all - he needs powerful engines. Whether the predicate for racy encounters the two available drive options, can also, however, argue. Pretty athletic see the vital signs but at least from what would also justify the addition of RS. The gasoline engine in the RS shelf, the 2.0 TSI makes nm peak torque from its four cylinders arranged in series, E.g. 220 HP and 350 - through exhaust Turbo and direct injection. The 2.0 TDI, a four-cylinder common-rail injection and a Turbo (with loader variable-geometry), 184 PS elicits its combustion chambers and 380 nm. real racing athletes aren't the two thus: suggests that the view to the competition. An Audi RS4 avant about wuchte hearty 450 Horsepower at the crank. the BMW 3 Series Touring - offer Munich rather than M model - in form of 340i 326 HP makes loose; and even the genuine VW variant releases 280 horses Passat in the strongest Variant.

The motors of the Octavia RS Combi are more than the rest of the Octavia drive gang offer so no Beefcake bloated with steroids, but simply strong drives, at least 40 and 34 PS. And accordingly they give you gas station wagon. The Turbo petrol engine can be for example in less than 7 seconds from zero to one hundred, and under full steam ahead on almost 250 km/h Sprint the spacious Czechs: there are exactly 6.9 seconds and 244 km/h, if he cooperates with the 6-speed manual. The turbo diesel it has not quite such a hurry: but loosely, 8.2 seconds for the standard Sprint and 230 km/h top speed sufficient for a family station wagon, we would believe.

RS: right smoothly & properly sparingly?

The supposed performance shortcoming has also a measurable advantages: because the consumption moves in modest, at the diesel even in economical regions. 5.2 liter has brought is the 2.0 TDI in the test out of the tank, these are only 0.6 litres more than in the new European driving cycle - the NEDC consumption is specified with 4.6 liters and 117 grams of CO2 when the diesel engine is combined with the 6-speed manual. The Turbo petrol engine treats herself to about two liters in the test with 7.3 litres and is located further from the standard consumption (6.2 liter, 142 grams) - for 220 racy horses but the consumption remains here in the frame. The automatic start-stop system and the recovery of braking energy make so paid for two drives.

It is time for a short interim conclusion: the RS engines although no racing cyclist, are quite sporty amateur athletes; also, they make much joy, the diesel at the petrol station even a lot of fun. And how it looks with the driving pleasure – is also of huge? At least big, we would say that the Octavia Combi RS is a very nimble contemporary. The thanks here goes to the tautly tuned sport suspension - noticeably tighter than the standard chassis with the suspension comfort fine - and the progressive steering, installed both at the factory in the RS. Just the progressive steering, which customizes their behavior of the speed, the agility gives the final touch.
