Compare the Skoda Superb Estate vs Skoda Octavia Estate
AI generated from our expert reviews
Both of these estates grip the road well through corners, though neither gives you much feedback through the steering wheel. At lower speeds in town, each can struggle a little over rough surfaces, with the Skoda Superb Estate feeling quite firm over potholes and speed bumps, while the Skoda Octavia Estate gets a bit bouncy over cobbles and potholes. Settle onto the motorway, however, and both quieten down with minimal wind or road noise, as all engines settle into a quiet cruise. You get adaptive cruise control as standard on the Superb Estate, whereas the Octavia Estate makes do with basic cruise control. If you regularly carry three passengers in the back, the Octavia's wide cabin does a good job of accommodating three pairs of hips, whereas the Superb is not as broad, leaving whoever sits in the middle seat feeling quite squished.
