AI generated from our expert reviews

Both the Skoda Octavia vRS and the Skoda Octavia vRS Estate treat you to comfortable front sports seats over long distances, along with plentiful headroom for those sitting in the back. On either car, you will want to choose the optional adaptive dampers to stop the suspension feeling too stiff and to keep things comfortable. The choice between them comes down to practical load carrying, where the Skoda Octavia vRS Estate holds an advantage with a bigger boot than the standard Skoda Octavia vRS, as well as more room with the back seats folded.
