In India on Buying a car itself we are paying double price with all the taxes, now buying a CBU is even worse for a 25 lakh rupee car we end up paying 70+ lakhs on road . 😂

[ravisr]

Depreciating "toilet paper" INR and Govt's voracious hunger for taxes will kill any CBU except for those with rather deep pockets...

[Themusketeers]

I don't get it with the prices and tax from the govt, instead of getting this for 65 lakh people will undoubtedly get something like the 330lwb or the 340i by paying a bit more. Rest the car is really good but taxes are shit.

[Anshu-Das-Vaishnav]

there is nothing more beautiful than a skoda, i am glad i am starting my day with looking at this beauty ❤

[sunilchahar]

Really exicted to see this on Indian roads. That lime green colour is looking absolutely gorgeous. Looks are great, power is great and if the price would have been better then it would have been the best car to buy.

[adityaajay]

If govt reduces tax on it and gets priced at ~30L, I bet this will be one of the most selling cars in India

[youtour]

I’m so proud to be a owner of my Skoda Octavia RS 😊

Skoda India seems to have taken the Lime Green color inspiration from Brotomotiv.

[JaanuStepsNstyle]

[deependrasingh]

Soo beautiful soo elegant just looking like a wow 🤑🤑

Skoda's sales percentage crashed by 95% in China. Their parent, VW, is on steroids, almost closing down many of their showrooms and factories in China, and was almost on the verge of closing down two of their manufacturing facilities in Germany. With this kind of exorbitant price, is there a future for the VW group?

Sleek Design Awesome Interior Amazing Funky Color 🤘🏻💯🚗👌🏼

[anotherdayanothercountry]

I am going to be happy just watching the video… not even going to think of purchasing this CBU in Karnataka… 😢

[sachinwagh]

Skoda itself thinks not to sell car's in huge numbers
Kushaq - minimum features with congested back seat

Octavia VRS - CBU units attracts high taxation

Superb - priced very high people will think buy merc Audi BMW

[midlifecrisis]

I am thrilled to see this. This will be on my list

[Economichitman]

Sad for customers who buy this.. Double the amount plus no local spare and service will be available in future ..

[avirupbanerjee]

Hey Autocar India can you please ask the MD of Skoda Indian about the Skoda Fabia.

[Soorya-ryov]

[zainalizaidi]
