Skoda has unveiled two new versions of its Octavia, both with a focus on economy.
The introduction of a 1.2-litre petrol unit is unconventional for a car of the Octavia's size, but Skoda believes the unit is more than capable of powering the medium sized model thanks to its 105bhp turbocharged performance.
Available with a six-speed manual or seven-speed twin-clutch DSG gearbox in hatchback or estate form, the Octavia 1.2 TSI emits 134g/km CO2, can achieve 49.6mpg and reaches 62mph in 10.8 seconds.
A 1.6-litre diesel and seven-speed DSG gearbox combination is also debuting on the Octavia, boasting CO2 emissions of 123g/km.
Both new models are available in S and SE trim level with the 1.6-litre diesel engine also available with the Elegance model.
"These new additions to the Octavia range continue to improve an already multi-award-winning formula of practicality, comfort, value for money and low running costs," said Skoda.
