Skoda is in the midst of a major product overhaul, which will see them introduce four new electric vehicles as well as an assortment of facelifts by the end of 2026. The company unveiled the updated Scala and Kamiq earlier this month, and now we’re getting a look at the facelifted Octavia. Not to be confused with the redesigned Superb, the model has been equipped with a new front bumper that features pronounced air curtains. We can also see what appears to be a revised grille and updated headlights.
The rear end is heavily disguised, but we
can get a glimpse of new taillights. The camouflage likely hides an updated
bumper as well. There isn’t much to see inside, but it appears the cabin will
largely carry over. That being said, we can see a new infotainment system with
a larger and taller display.
Skoda hasn’t said much about the
facelifted Octavia, but the company has previously confirmed it will arrive in
2024. The company has also hinted at optimized internal combustion engines.
Speaking of which, the model will likely
share some powertrains with the updated Kamiq. In particular, we can expect an
upgraded turbocharged 1.0-liter three-cylinder with 114 hp. It
should be joined by a familiar 1.5-liter TSI four-cylinder with 148 hp. We can also expect an assortment of 2.0-liter four-cylinder engines.
