More about SafetyŠKODA ECO MODELS
Taking an environmentally friendly approach to what we do involves all everyday life activity. Since driving is usually a big part of that, we understand the necessity of designing vehicles that do not damage the environment and provide, in parallel, exceptional economy, interior space and comfort. All the smart decisions you take when choosing your next car will contribute to a healthier planet and a better future for your family.
THE POWER OF ELECTRICITY
Selected ŠKODA models have been electrified to offer you new standards of environmental friendliness, economy and driving. All-electric and plug-in hybrid models, branded as iV, generate much lower emissions coupled while delivering a quiet, comfortable drive.
THRIFTY ENGINES
Thanks to the turbocharging, motor has ample power in low rpm, where it is used for most of the time. In the lower rpm range, the engine is also quieter and features lower fuel consumption and emissions. Direct fuel injection enhances the efficiency of burning fuel and contributes to lower fuel consumption and thereby also to lower CO2 emissions.
G-TEC TECH
While looking the same as other ŠKODA cars, the G-TEC models are equipped with automatic switching between the two fuel systems. With CNG, they promise low fuel consumption and CO2 emissions as well as impressive range and... yes, low costs for your driving.
BRAKE ENERGY RECOVERY
During braking, the kinetic energy is transformed into heat, which is then uselessly radiated into the environment. To help you get part of this energy back, we’ve developed the brake energy recovery system, which uses an intelligent alternator to store the energy in the battery during deceleration and then uses it to lower the engine load by the alternator, reducing fuel consumption.
GEAR RECOMMENDATION
Right choice of gear ratio can save fuel and increase drive comfort at the same time. Lower engine speeds result in lower fuel consumption and quieter engine operation. The symbol in the upper right corner of the display in the instrument cluster confirms the right choice of gear ratio, or recommends changing it up or down.
START-STOP SYSTEM
When a vehicle is stationary, the engine continues to consume fuel and emit pollutants. This is where the Start-Stop system comes in, automatically switching the engine off when the car is at standstill, thereby instantly reducing fuel consumption. The Start-Stop system is activated automatically after the engine starts and can be manually switched off at any time.
ŠKODA SPORTY MODELS
By opting for any of the ŠKODA sports models, you become one of us. A member of one of the oldest racing enthusiast clubs in the world, more than 110 years old. And just as we fuse ŠKODA cars with practicality and sophisticated solutions, adrenaline and the yearning to race flow in their blood in equal measure. The RS, Sportline and Monte Carlo versions have nothing to hide. Look forward to an exciting time in your ŠKODA – whether you’re going shopping, taking an evening drive down country roads or gearing up for some weekend fun on a racing circuit.
3-SPOKE SPORTY STEERING WHEEL
A 3-spoke perforated leather steering wheel is fitted as standard in all sports models. The multifunctional 3-spoke steering wheel enables control of the radio, possibly also the telephone, the Virtual Cockpit and shifting the automatic DSG transmission.
SPORTS SEATS
Seats are especially shaped and designed in racing cars style to provide ideal support for the driver and passenger. Every choice delivers the perfect combination of style, comfort and performance.
STAINLESS STEEL PEDALS
Pedals with stainless steel covers are important in giving the car’s interior a sporty feel. With these pedals, the driver’s footwell gains more visual appeal and their silver colour matches the chrome accent in the interior. Thanks to the rubber spots, your feet will never slip from the pedal.
PERFORMANCE MODE SELECT WITH SOUND GENERATOR
Performance Mode Select allows the OCTAVIA RS driver to change the steering characteristics and the settings for other systems in the Normal, Eco, Sport and Individual modes. To complete the sporty feel, a special Performance Sound Generator amplifies the growl of the engine to let you know this is a car with racing credentials.
LAP TIMER
The Lap timer function offers the possibility of calculating the lap time, for example when driving on a race course. During timing, information about the fastest and the last lap time are also shown in the display.
REAL-TIME DATA IN ŠKODA ONEAPP
Using the smartphone application ŠKODA OneApp and the SmartLink+ interface, useful information such as torque, rpm, acceleration, fuel consumption and lateral acceleration can be accessed in real time.
VAQ LIMITED-SLIP DIFFERENTIAL
When cornering, the VAQ differential transfers an increased amount of engine power to the outer front wheel – i.e. to the wheel with the most grip – as required. This provides for particularly dynamic acceleration when exiting corners and the risk of understeering during acceleration is significantly reduced. Available exclusively in the most powerful OCTAVIA RS.
XDS+ ELECTRONIC DIFFERENTIAL LOCK
The XDS+ electronic differential lock, a function included in Electronic Stability Control (ESC), makes handling even safer when cornering quickly. XDS+ does this by gently slowing down the inner wheels to transmit more power to the outer wheels, thereby guaranteeing increased agility when cornering.

PROGRESSIVE STEERING
Progressive steering provides the vehicle with better handling and agility in curves. The progressive steering changes the ratio depending on how far the wheel is turned so that you don’t have to keep shuffling your hands round the steering wheel. This makes it easier to manoeuvre on twisty roads, in city traffic or when parking.
ŠKODA sports equipment
DYNAMIC SOUND BOOST
Dynamic Sound Boost provides a characteristic and emotive acoustic experience both inside and outside the car. The special device produces a specific note, which complements the natural sound of the exhaust system and refines the engine’s sound profile. Available exclusively in KODIAQ RS.

ŠKODA DRIVING MODES
Drive a different ŠKODA every day. Driving Mode Select and other on-board systems lets you align the character of your whole car with your current mood. Switching modes will alter the engine response, transmission, Adaptive Cruise Control, lights and other systems. The system can be expanded to include the Dynamic Chassis Control and Sport Chassis Control, which adjust the shock absorber settings according to the mode selected.
NORMAL
Suitable for any occasion. In Normal mode, all components – such as the engine, the power steering and the assists – are operational and the Start-Stop system is on. You can be sure of a comfortable ride whatever the circumstances.
SPORT
This is the mode for those moments when you want to well and truly harness your car’s potential. The engine is more responsive, the DSG transmission keeps to higher revs, the power steering is reduced, the adaptive chassis stiffens for better performance and control, and the assists also adapt.
ECO
The Eco mode helps you to keep a lid on consumption. The engine reduces the torque, the transmission keeps to low revs, when you take your foot off the accelerator the car coasts, and the air-conditioning keeps to a fuel-saving regime.
INDIVIDUAL
The Individual mode is designed for you to customise the way you want your car to behave. You can take your pick of Normal, Eco and Sport for selected systems to come up with a combination that dovetails with your needs.
COMFORT
The Comfort mode, only available in conjunction with Dynamic Chassis Control, makes sure that your drive is as comfortable as possible. The main difference compared to Normal is that the adaptive dampers switch to Comfort so that you can comfortably deal with uneven road surfaces.
SNOW
The Snow mode is designed exclusively for 4×4s. It adjusts the electronic assist settings to handle slippery surfaces. The ABS and ASR systems are modified, the power steering is stiffened and the accelerator is less responsive.
OFF-ROAD
This mode makes it easier to negotiate sections that are difficult to pass by adjusting the characteristics of the engine, electronic assist systems and stability control systems. It helps with driving off, braking and hill descents.
ESC SPORT
Electronic Stability Control (ESC), the system that’s always ready to help you in critical situations, can be given a break for a while on sporty drives by switching to Sport mode. You can then enjoy oversteering on bends and some wheel-spins.
IV-SPECIFIC MODES
ŠKODA’s iV-branded electrified models offer additional modes tailored to their specific drive types. The SUPERB iV plug-in hybrid offers an E-mode, for a purely electric drive, or a HYBRID mode, regulating interaction between the petrol engine and the electric motor. The all-electric CITIGOe iV can be switched to Eco and Eco+ modes to maximise its range.
YOU DRIVE, WE CARE

COMFORT FOR EVERYONE, NO EXCEPTIONS
Travelling in a ŠKODA is an experience not only for the driver. All passengers will appreciate the generous space both in the front and in the other rows of seats, the ease of connectivity, and clever details such as personalised car keys and back seat protection for your four-legged friend.
FIRST-CLASS CREATURE COMFORTS
You’re going to love travelling as a passenger. Ease into your seat, set the perfect temperature in the back with the three-zone climate control, or turn on the seat heating. Connect your device to the on-board Wi-Fi and easily charge it in one of the two USB ports. Place your drink on the tray table, lean back and watch the sky through the large panoramic window. Let’s get going.
YOUR PERSONALISED ŠKODA
Your ŠKODA will always recognise who is about to drive it. When you unlock it and open the door, all available features will adapt accordingly. Which means you get into “your” car, with the correctly configured seat, wing mirrors, Climatronic, comfort assists, radio and navigation system. In this way, up to three different drivers can feel at home in one and the same ŠKODA.
TAKE YOUR BEST FRIEND
ŠKODAs place great importance on making your four-legged pets as comfortable as possible. They even get to choose where they want to sit: in the second row of seats with back seat protection, or perhaps in the boot with a transverse trunk grille? Other features include the special dog safety belt and the double-sided boot mat.
SMALL DETAILS, BIG DIFFERENCE
Further unique ŠKODA components can be found in Simply Clever elements: each model features a host of smart details and solutions that will make every day easier for you. See for yourselves.
