Automobile Skoda Octavia is one of the legendary representatives of the C-class segment in Europe. Today it is one of the most successful sedans (liftbacks) ever produced in the Old World. The machine is delivered to almost all developed countries of the world, it is in demand even in places of sale that are unusual for European autos. With each generation, the car changed its power plants, modified the technical component. This became the reason for a rather large line of units for secondary market, as well as a huge selection of cars in the showroom. To date, the company uses the developments of Volkswagen, installing only the most advanced units in Skoda. So let's take a look at the very best Skoda Octavia engines with an indication of the models in which they were used.
It is interesting that the corporation has a huge number of advantages that are hidden not only in engines. All car systems are quite reliable and offer quality solutions. You can use power plants for a long time and you will not get any problems with the units. However, there are a number of misconceptions about this machine. There is a somewhat prejudiced attitude towards not the most popular powerful engines and an excessive love for small units, which is not justified by anything. Therefore, it is much better to use not only public opinion, but also specific owner reviews about a particular car to find real opinions about the engine. This will help you understand if the power unit has children's problems and other troubles. Most likely, this way you will be able to discover a lot of advantages and disadvantages of each engine from Skoda. Let's get down to the main known facts.
Skoda Octavia Tour - 1.8 Turbo as the ideal engine
Under the hood of the first generation, which later became known as Tour, at first there were only naturally aspirated engines of the MPI type. But over time, the company was able to install a tubed 1.8 Turbo unit. It was this Skoda that became one of the most reliable in this generation. The main features of the operation of this car make it possible to understand how hardy the unit is. There are several major advantages of the engine:
- a larger volume than most units for this class, good throttle response and engine endurance, which increases its potential service life in a car;
- a turbine that works flawlessly, there are no problems with it even on very old cars that are poorly maintained and travel a lot of kilometers in factories;
- the simplest gearboxes in kits, they often buy cars on mechanics, there are not so many automatic machines on the market, a very reliable combination of the engine and gearbox in the Tour model;
- power of 150 and 180 horses, there are versions with four-wheel drive and raised ground clearance, which become real crossovers for owners, successful configurations;
- consumption is not higher than on junior power plants, since the power allows you to drag the car without any problems and give it a margin even in the most difficult situations on the track.
Cars with this engine were produced for a long time. They lived on the assembly line for about 10 years without much change. Nevertheless, at one time this modification was one of the most expensive, so there are not many Tour 1.8 Turbo representatives on the secondary market. Nevertheless, the engine is very reliable and interesting, which proves its use in Volkswagen passat, Bora, Golf and other models of the concern.
Skoda Octavia A5 - 2.0 FSI without turbo, but with character
Another engine with 150 horses under the hood is a slightly forced aspirated FSI type with a volume of 2 liters. There are versions on the mechanics or on the machine, the machine is made with slight differences from its main competitors on the market. The car has good ground clearance and offers fairly large 16-inch wheels in the base. There are several important configuration decisions that differentiate the model. The features of the engine are as follows:
- power is not so strongly felt on the machine, but the 6-speed mechanics fully reveals the capabilities of the machine, there are a number of advantages in technical performance;
- the engine is hardy, a large volume gives it a huge advantage of a rather long service life, the resource is not limited to 500,000 km of run, even without major repairs;
- the reliability of the engine remains even if the quality of service is not the highest, but it is better not to risk with oils and other parts of the service, buying the recommended solutions;
- there is a danger that the car will require repair, but for this you need to do a good job of destroying technical details models to make it less reliable;
- the engine is quite gluttonous, which is its only drawback, but in the FSI highway mode it shows itself with better side reducing fuel consumption to a minimum.
Using already known technologies, Skoda has produced a revolutionary engine. It was installed on many models in 2006 and over the next few years. Now cars with such a unit serve their owners without problems and difficulties. There are no childhood illnesses and breakdowns that would make you spend large sums of money. This unit has fully justified the purchase for many car owners.
Is the 1.6 MPI engine on the Skoda Octavia so good?
On all generations of the Octavia car, a 1.6 MPI power unit was installed. In many versions, it was the base unit. This is the simplest engine that Volkswagen has used for the entire passenger car. lineup since 1998, when the unit was modernized. Technologies were taken from the past, they were very reliable and brought real durability. But at Skoda, it all took on a different meaning:
- the company's specialists decided to experiment with a good engine, for the A5 this power unit was lightened, modernized and changed;
- after that, the power plant began to show problems that were not previously inherent in the model, in particular, overhaul the motor is practically impracticable;
- the reduced fuel consumption really pleases - in city mode you can drive 7.5-8 liters of fuel 100 km, on the highway the consumption drops to 6 liters, which is very pleasing;
- all 105 Horse power work for a more comfortable movement, the car demonstrates good dynamics with all its insignificant power indicators;
- reliability is guaranteed up to 200,000 km of run, then problems may begin that should always be considered when buying a used car of this Skoda generation.
In the new generation A7, this power unit is also installed as the cheapest option. It was slightly modernized, received Russian production and became even cheaper in implementation. But its main characteristics remained, as did the main problems. You will not be able to repair this once very reliable and durable German unit. When buying, it is worth remembering the limited resource of the car.
The best Skoda Octavia A7 engine - choose a diesel
Among the gasoline units of the new generation Octavia, there is not only the standard 1.6 MPI. The 1.4 TSI engine is presented with an excellent turbine and 150 horsepower, there is also a 1.8 TSI with a potential of 180 horsepower. But what attracts the greatest attention of lovers of truly good technology is the 2.0 TDI engine with 143 horses. This is a very interesting diesel unit with the following features:
- highest reliability, huge potential of the engine even in the most difficult conditions, which is a rarity for diesel power plants recent years of development;
- very high potential and excellent power of the power unit, excellent technical capabilities of the car, good acceleration and excellent travel speed;
- equipment DSG box- a branded German robot from Volkswagen, which has become a legendary solution for lovers of automatic machines that do not increase the fuel consumption of a car;
- the diesel consumption is simply amazing - 6.4 liters are enough for a city trip, the consumption completely coincides with the passport, for the highway you need less than 5 liters of fuel per 100 km;
- it is very difficult to judge the reliability of the unit, since it is installed only on new models of the corporation, but according to the history of use at VW there is a positive trend.
Diesel vehicles have a certain wary attitude in our country. But more and more buyers are choosing this option for themselves, which turns out to be suitable in all respects. There is everything here that will help you get pleasure and enjoyment from the operation of transport. On the theoretical disadvantages of cars with diesel unit Very little is known about the 2.0 TDI, so it's worth waiting for reviews from numerous owners. We offer you to watch the video review Skoda car Octavia A7:
Summing up
Skoda Octavia cars in all generations have been bestsellers in their class. This is one of the models that has received the maximum advantages in comparison with competitors and has been able to sell in incredible quantities for three generations. There is a tendency to an increase in demand for European cars, and Skoda is in one of the first places in this list. The main competitor for the brand is Renault, but the C-class is very weak for the French. So there are no alternatives for lovers of European technology, and this is one of the most important advantages when buying transport.
It is worth admitting that not all Octavia engines turned out to be really successful and of high quality. There are units that did not meet the corporation's expectations and did not become the best in their segment. But even not the most successful options were much better than some other solutions of competitors. Whatever Skoda engine is under the hood of your car, using good service can be achieved very High Quality operation and the absence of any problems. And which power unit from this concern do you think is the best?
The legendary Skoda Octavia turns 60 this year. It's time to remember the pros and cons of the latest, most current generation.
It's like Golf, only better
Golf is one of the best-selling cars in the Old World and the main donor of VAG. From its base they receive Seat Leon, Audi A3, Golf Sportsvan and Tiguan. The Octavia also borrowed the golf platform, but in a more sophisticated way.
Firstly, the Czechs have found extra millimeters of legroom and liters of luggage, it would seem, where there is nowhere to take them. Therefore, the "Octavia" has the most spacious trunk in the class and a rear sofa.
Secondly, the Skoda developers have thought through everything to the smallest detail. The A7 has ashtray smartphone holders and ribbed cup holders that can be opened with one hand. Plus an ice scraper in the fuel filler flap and optional dog harnesses! On the way out, this is the most practical family car.
Why Octavia is better than competitors
Skoda Octavia is a really practical car. Its advantages are good visibility for the driver, space for passengers, roomy trunk at 568 liters. Plus, it's technologically advanced. This applies to:
- the overall lightness of the MQB platform;
- suspension settings that make driving enjoyable;
- accuracy of responses to gas;
- the rate of fire of the gearbox, after which, say, Renault or Toyota variators will be simply painful.
It is also better in terms of content. Back in 2013, the Octavia automatically kept itself in the lane and steered away from the markings if the driver was distracted or started to fall asleep. The Japanese offered analogs of the system of keeping in the lane only five years later.
The same with multimedia. From the very beginning, the A7 had different options for standard head units - from simple five-inch radio tape recorders and "combines" to seven-inch "heads" with advanced navigation.
In general, despite the conservative appearance and family status, Octavia is not alien to innovations and is liked by a wide range of buyers, rather than competitors.
By tradition, Octavia received:
- two body types: liftback and station wagon;
- six engines: 1.2; 1.4; 1.8; 2.0 turbo, naturally aspirated 1.6 and diesel 2.0;
- two special versions: the sporty RS and the off-road Scout.
With 1.2 turbo A7 entered our market in 2013. The nameplate on such a large car is an outright mockery, although it gives out characteristics at the level of 1.6.
After 2014 on Russian "Octavias" the base was 1.6 liters per 110 liters. with. from the new EA211 line. It differs from the old one - a timing chain drive, an aluminum cylinder block and an intake manifold built into the cylinder head.
The 1.4L and 1.8L turbo engines are similar in torque (250 Nm), but differ in suspension combinations. From 1.4 there is a beam, from 1.8 on the back there is a multi-link. Multi-link "Octavias" are more versatile and better cope with changeable terrain.
Diesel 2.0 went unnoticed. Russian people do not want such motors, and in vain. There are fierce 320 N * m of thrust, a consumption of about 5 liters per 100 km on the highway and a minimum vibration load. Diesel "Octavias" held out until the 2017 restyling and disappeared into oblivion.
Modifications
And while we're on the subject of exoticism, it's time to remember the charged RS and the workers 'and peasants' version of the Scout. The hot hatch RS in this generation has a 2.0 turbo engine blown up to 220 hp. with., sporty suspension settings, sporty interior and customizable exhaust sound. It turned out quickly and practically, so RS'ka enjoyed a small but steady demand.
Scout was the last to appear. This is a station wagon with a ground clearance of 171 mm, phenomenal volume (588-1718 liters) and a trunk layout, a protective body kit around and all-wheel drive. In Russia, it is only available with 1.8 turbo.
All-wheel drive modifications of the A7, except for the Scout, are also found. Before restyling, only the Combi was equipped with a 4x4 system with a Haldex clutch. After restyling, she appeared on liftbacks.
Transmissions
In terms of transmissions, the Octavia A7 is a typical VW product. The initial versions are mechanically aggregated, an aspirated 1.6 - 6-band automatic Aisin. Paired with small turbo engines (1.2 TSI and 1.4 TSI), a seven-speed DSG robot works, with older gasoline and diesel engines- six-step.
The differences between transmissions are significant:
- Skoda Octavia's Aisin machines are the most durable and non-capricious. Of the minuses - it is necessary to change the oil more often and avoid overheating, since the valve body and clutches do not like high temperatures.
- Seven-speed DSGs have a reputation for being the most flawed, which isn't always true. After 2012 VW revised their design, and after 2014-2015. complaints about crumbling clutches and mechatronics have dropped dramatically.
- Sores in the six-speed DSG "Skoda Octavia" are minimal. They are more tenacious, because the clutches work there in an oil bath, that is, they better tolerate mechanical and thermal loads.
Difficulties of choice and cons of "Skoda Octavia"
The turbo engines cause complaints. But if you look at the total circulation of cars sold, it becomes clear that you should not take conversations about the fragility of turbines or oil oil to heart. Overall, the Octavias are hardy and robust. The rest are exceptions to the rules, often arising from improper operation.
The reliability of the car is evidenced by its demand in taxi companies. Almost every seventh Octavia, as shown by an analysis of 40 random reports requested through March through May, works in a taxi. For purchase such a "Skoda Octavia" will not work. Too shabby both morally and technically, it can be on lease or as a pledge and have a bunch of other problems:
The most common problems of a used A7, according to Avtokod statistics, is the calculation renovation works(18 out of 40), road traffic accidents (14 out of 40) and unpaid fines (7 out of 40). We met copies with twisted mileage - 3 out of 40 and a duplicate PTS (2 out of 40). 2 cars turned out to be pledged, 5 on lease.
Prices for Skoda Octavia A7 in the secondary market
Pre-styling A7s are richly presented. You can find all motors, special versions, option packages. 1.2 TSI + DSG is the smallest option. The price varies from 400 to 725 thousand rubles for copies with a mileage of no more than 60 thousand km.
1.4 TSI + DSG are more common. Prices range from 450 thousand for pre-styling versions to more than 1.4 million for restyled copies.
Variations with engines 1.8 and 2.0 TSI and DSG are sold in the range of 459 thousand -1.6 million rubles.
For RS they ask from 360 to 980 thousand.
The average price tag for "Scouts" is 857 thousand rubles:
Is it worth buying
Concluding the review, let's say that it is worth taking the Skoda Octavia. She is comfortable, spacious, ideal for a family. If you are looking for an affordable copy for 350-400 thousand, take a closer look at a car with an aspirated 1.6 liter. But keep in mind that most of these have a taxi past and huge mileage.
If you want to "rock", take the RS, if you travel far and with a full trunk - Scout. But in the first case, the car can be tired from starts with two pedals at traffic light races, in the second - from long runs to the Kola Peninsula and back.
When choosing, watch ads from private traders, and not in a soulless trade-in. And to be calm, check the history of the Skoda A7. After all, a family car should give peace of mind.
Have you had any experience of owning a Skoda Octavia? What problems did you encounter during operation? Let us know in the comments.
This car has won love and respect among car owners in all CIS countries. This is not surprising, because for many years it has been providing the most favorable ratio between prestige and price! So new model Skoda Octavia A7 (we wrote about the previous one), no doubt, will not shame its predecessors, because it has absorbed all the best and has become even a little better.
Reviews of the Skoda Octavia:
Exterior:
- It is made in the best traditions of the Volkswagen concern. Smooth lines, deliberate modesty, successfully combined with style, charisma and solidity - this is exactly the impression the new A7 makes. In profile, it is very similar to a sedan, the branded radiator grill has not gone anywhere, the modest and solid stern is decorated with the same lamps. Truly - "Simply brilliant!"
- The universal is less popular, but it was created according to the same principles - rationalism at the head of the image.
- However, such an officialdom may not please everyone. The classic and, to some extent, insipid design is clearly not to the liking of fans of eccentric and stylish sports cars from Japan and France, although in terms of dynamics, the Octavia may have odds with many of them ...
Engines:
Traditionally for the German car industry, a wide range of power units, among which there are both gasoline and diesel.
The list opens with a 1.2-liter gasoline engine. Despite the modest volume, its characteristics are impressive - thanks to the turbocharging, the engine power is 105 hp. s, and the torque is 175 Nm! Moreover, it is already available from 1400 rpm. It accelerates the car to a hundred in 10.3 seconds, which is very good for such a modest volume. Even with him at the crossroads, you won't have to peer into the footsteps of the leaders.
Next comes a turbocharged, 1.4-liter petrol unit. It is even more powerful - 140 "horses" under the hood and as much as 250 Nm of traction, which is available from 1500 rpm! Not all competitors can come close to such numbers. Acceleration to hundreds in 8.4 seconds. impressive ... it perfect option both for the city and for the highway.
Well, the 1.8TSI engine became the most powerful and fastest. This "beast" produces 180 liters. with. and has a diesel traction of 250 Nm, and it is available from the very bottom - from 1250 rpm! 7.3 sec. up to 100 km / h! With him, you can leave behind all the assorted bully at traffic lights. In addition, all these engines are not only powerful and high-torque, but also very economical - gasoline consumption does not exceed 6.4 liters when driving in a combined cycle.
The 2-liter, 143-horsepower turbodiesel is also a bit apart. It has just a huge torque of 320 Nm, and it delivers maximum thrust in the optimal operating range - from 1750 to 3000 rpm. At the same time, fuel consumption is surprisingly low - only 5 liters in the "city-highway" cycle. Nevertheless, in spite of the fact that he consumes "diesel fuel", with acceleration to a hundred in 8.9 seconds. such an engine will leave behind many "petrolmen".
- The disadvantages of such power units include the complexity of the design and, as a result, the high cost of operation and repair, as well as the big risks when buying a car in the secondary market - Octavia A7 may require a serious application of hands and funds ...
Gearbox, suspension and drive:
With regard to the undercarriage, different versions there are major differences. The front suspension for all modifications is made according to the standard and time-tested McPherson scheme. As for the rear, there is an independent multi-link on the modifications with the 1.8TSI engine. In all other cases, a torsion beam is installed at the back. In principle, even the beam fully justifies itself in terms of handling, however, the presence of a top engine of 180 "horses" obliges ... In a pair of such a suspension, only front-wheel drive is available.
Gearboxes are also tricky. The car can be equipped with either "mechanics" or "automatic", but this is not a traditional torque converter, but a preselective transmission, which provides dynamics and efficiency, not worse, and sometimes even better than with a "handle". In addition, there are no jolts and pauses when switching, typical for a conventional automatic transmission.
The number of gears in the manual transmission varies - if in the weakest version with a 1.2 TSI engine there is a 5-speed gearbox, then all other gasoline modifications are equipped with MT with 6 gears. What is most interesting - manual transmission is not provided for diesel engines at all.
DSGs can also be different - gasoline models are equipped with a 7-band box, while only a 6-band is available for a turbodiesel.
- Such a variety of choices, of course, cannot but rejoice, but for the owner, this abundance can turn into considerable expenses. If to manual transmission questions almost never arise, then in relation to preselective transmissions there are more than enough of them. With a long ride, the box heats up, jerks and jerks appear when changing from 2nd to 3rd gear. Besides, given type The checkpoint is extremely expensive to repair due to the complexity of the design and relative novelty. Therefore, when purchasing a car with DSG, service must be carried out exclusively at the dealer and not "fly away" from the warranty.
Interior:
The salon is made in German soundly and efficiently. As in the exterior, officialdom prevails in the interior. The location of the controls is thought out as if a car is made for each client individually - you can use the keys and dials with your eyes closed. The seats are very comfortable, the "tidy" is perfectly readable, the steering wheel fits nicely in your hands, there is enough space in the back for three passengers, and you can take 568 liters of luggage on the way (1558 liters with the rear sofa unfolded!).
- However, the story with the exterior may repeat itself - many do not like such "dryness" and severity in the interior of the "Czech". Many say that the word design is alien to the creators of Skoda. However, design is not for everybody.
Prices:
The price of this car starts from 589,900 rubles. That is how much they ask for the basic version with a 1.2 TSI engine and manual transmission. For DSG, you will have to pay already from 647,900 rubles. 1.4-liter modification will cost from 764,900 rubles. for manual transmission and from 804 900 rubles. for AT. The top motor costs from 839,900 rubles. for "mechanics" and from 879,900 for "automatic". Diesel price tag - from 924 900 rubles
The third generation of the Skoda Octavia uses specially designed modern turbocharged gasoline and diesel engines. Fuel consumption and emissions exhaust gases new powertrains have decreased by 23% compared to their predecessors. A total of 8 engine versions are provided: four petrol TSI and four diesel TDI. In Russia, it was initially sold with three versions of turbocharged gasoline engines (1.2, 1.4 and 1.8 liters) and one 2-liter diesel engine. However, subsequently, the modification with the younger 1.2 TSI engine was replaced by a modification with naturally aspirated engine 1.6 MPI. Below are the characteristics of all 5 power units
Gasoline engine 1.2 TSI (CJZA index)
The entry-level 1.2 TSI Green tec engine with Start / Stop and Brake Energy Regeneration has 105 hp. with a combined cycle fuel consumption of 5.2 l / 100 km. The maximum torque of 175 Nm is maintained between 1400 and 4000 rpm. The emission of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is only 114 g / km. The engine can be operated with either a 5-speed mechanical box transmissions, or with a 7-speed automatic DSG.
Petrol engine 1.4 TSI (CHPA index)
The next in the line is the 1.4 TSI Green tec engine with a power of 140 hp, capable of developing a maximum torque of 250 N * m at 1500-3500 rpm. It can be paired with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DSG. When fitted with a manual transmission, fuel consumption is only 5.5 l / 100 km in the combined cycle.
Gasoline engine 1.6 MPI (CWVA index)
The only naturally aspirated power unit in the Skoda Octavia A7 engine lineup. It is significantly inferior to turbocharged engines in power and peak torque, and also consumes more fuel. Maximum thrust 110 hp supported by such a motor in a fairly narrow range of 5500-5800 rpm. The maximum torque is reached at 3800 rpm. More information about the 1.6 MPI 110 hp engine. look.
Gasoline engine 1.8 TSI (CJSA index)
The most powerful petrol engine is the 1.8 TSI Green tec (180 hp) with a torque of 250 N * m in the rev range from 1250 to 5000. When operating with a 7-speed automatic transmission the fuel consumption is 6.1 l / 100 km.
Diesel engine 2.0 TDI
In Russia, the third-generation Skoda Octavia comes with one option diesel engine a volume of 2 liters and a capacity of 143 hp. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 119 g / km and fuel consumption is 5.1 l / 100 km. The maximum torque of 320 N * m is achieved in the range of 1750-3000 rpm. The 2.0 TDI engine is also equipped with automatic transmission gear.

Turbocharged gasoline engines the new Octavia belongs to the EA211 series developed by Volkswagen. They have an in-line configuration with 4 cylinders. The main advantage of these powertrains is the significant reduction in fuel consumption and emissions through optimized thermal management.
The new engines are fundamentally different from the previous EA111 series. They have become more compact - the installation length has been reduced by 50 mm; the installation system was also optimized. Both the cylinder block itself and crankshaft with connecting rods and pistons. A dual-circuit system is used to cool the EA211 engine: the high-temperature circuit cools the engine itself, and the low-temperature circuit cools the cylinder head.
Diesel engines EA288 have also been significantly redesigned, which allowed them to be more economical than the previous generation. A number of components have undergone modernization, including changes affected exhaust system... The innovative thermal management system with separate circuits now allows the engine to warm up much faster, which is especially important in winter.
The 3rd generation Skoda Octavia (A7 body) was one of the first to receive a new modular MQB platform as a base. The car body is a light and rigid structural structure made of 26.2% ultra-high-strength steels. In the Euro NCAP safety tests, the car confidently earned the maximum five stars.
The Skoda Octavia A7, whose sales began in 2013, is characterized by an abundance of modifications formed by various combinations of bodies, power units and transmissions. So, along with the classic versions of Skoda Octavia (liftback) and Skoda Octavia Combi (station wagon) there is an off-road modification (station wagon with increased ground clearance and four-wheel drive), as well as sports variations and the Octavia Combi RS.
On Russian market the new model from Skoda came out exclusively with turbocharged engines. At the time of the start of sales, the following units were in the arsenal of an ordinary liftback:
- 1.2 TSI 105 HP, 175 Nm. Combines with 5MKPP or 7DSG “robot”.
- 1.4 TSI 140 HP, 250 Nm. Works in tandem with a 6-speed "mechanics" or 7-band DSG.
- 1.8 TSI 180 HP, 250 Nm. The pair of gearboxes is the same as that of the 140-horsepower turbo engine.
- 2.0 TDI 143 hp, 320 Nm. The only diesel engine is aggregated with a 6-speed robotized DSG transmission.
All of these configurations were available for both the liftback and the station wagon. However, the Octavia Combi also had one all-wheel drive version with a 1.8 TSI 180 hp engine. and 6-speed DSG.
During the revision of the engine range in 2014-2015, the Skoda Octavia A7 not only acquired a new base engine, but also received modernized versions of the remaining ones. The current line of engines includes units:
- 1.6 MPI 110 HP, 155 Nm. The atmospheric unit with multipoint injection replaced the 1.2 TSI turbocharged four. The engine has been assembled in Kaluga since September 2015 and, in addition to Octavia, is installed on and.
- 1.4 TSI 150 HP, 250 Nm.
- 1.8 TSI 180 HP, 250 Nm.
- 2.0 TDI 150 HP, 320 Nm.
All-wheel drive is still available along with a 180-horsepower turbo engine and 6DSG only for the Skoda Octavia Combi station wagon.
The upgraded TSI units perform well in terms of gas mileage. The fuel consumption of the Skoda Octavia A7 1.4 TSI averages 5.3-5.5 liters, the version with the 1.8 TSI engine consumes about 6-6.2 liters, the diesel version burns no more than 5 liters per 100 km.
The cargo compartment of the hatchback with the backrests up rear seats holds 568 liters, when folded - 1558 liters. The trunk volume of the Skoda Octavia A7 Combi station wagon is only slightly larger - 588 and 1718 liters, respectively.
