am I the only person who likes the new face?
Nick Cobden I like it 👍
Nick Cobden Yes
pretty much yes, but probably there are some more idiots.
It would seem so! Ha ha!
Your population is same with pandas they face becoming extinct
I still remember people hating on 2007 civics, they sold like crazy and the resale value is still high 10 years later... I for one like this facelift. Its dearing and fresh.
So I guess I'm the only one who likes the headlights 🤷🏿♂️
Board room: OK guys, we are selling way too much cars and hurting Golf sales!
Designers: Say no more!!
why not get all the opportunities to blame everything on the big bad german right? ffs, as if skoda doesn t have an history of seriously bad designs.
the new Seats look stunning, the next yeti has been seen testing and its a tiguan with a skoda front, heck, why would they even released the kodiaq, but doesn t matter right? why blame on the brand that has loved quirky designs since forever, lets all bark and join the worlds favorite hobby, blame germany (and i m not german btw)
It's a joke, lighten up!
mine is a joke too, cool
i didn't like it at first when i saw the split headlights but i changed my mind it actually looks really good
Quick question. Is a similar face lift (face down actually ) on the cards for the superb as well ? If yes, then when can it be expected?
I am from India and considering the current Superb and the yet to be launched VW Passat, which has been on its was to India since ages. Thank you.
That is how you do an intro video. Specs, everything, while the voice-less commercial plays in the back. Unlike other channels where its only the voice-less commercial, without voice over or any additional information. This is why carwow wins subscribers.
Can you review the new 2017 Mazda 3 ?
Loving them headlights.
does the update come with skodas version of the matrix headlights?
I have the 2015 Octavia. they literally made this look uglier.
Is it even possible to make a car figuratively look uglier? What purpose does the addition of the word "literally" serve in this sentence?
the front looks like the old E-class
It looks like someone took an axe to the old pair of headlights and the wounds just healed to become the new facelift.
it will sell like hot cakes, just like the older one.
And it'll deserve to. So much space and quality for relatively little money.
Hahahaha skoda car konjska kola
The ugliest looking headlights ever in car world history
did you see kodiaq..? even uglier than this crapy design..lol
Yes, it looks like some KIA SUV, but still not this ugly.
Soon they will feature in the Grand Tour, as the ugliest front .. close to the Ssang Yong models : )))
dont forget about the fiat multipla;)
the most beautiful looking headlights i have ever seeen.. great job done by skoda... you all dont know the cars even their styling... just fuck off.
I like the front, and I quite like Skoda's design language atm, more interesting than most VW's *snore*
why skoda separates the headlights?
Hey carwow,
You need to do a review on the Mercedes glc coupe.. I've been waiting for months for this.
Could you do cold start of 2017 prius?
@1:30 paired with EDL?
This car is always Awesome !! It is Now even more Awesome !!
what were they thinking with the headlights? 😕
Everyone is complaining about ugly headlights. When I first saw it i was like: wtf why??? But the more I look at the new Octavia's facelift, the more I like it.
I'm also looking at it quite a lot, trying not to hate it, but I just can't.
i think the new headlights look daring and more radical
I´m guessing it is the MQB platform, maybe they mentioned it but I missed it.
People will end up doing a Reverse facelift..
I do like it. It's definitely better than the old one, but VRS model did fit better with the old styling. :)
Please review the Rapid vs the Seat Toledo
Why there's no 1.8 TSI petrol engine in the UK lineup? :-(
The base model is equipped like a clio from 2003. This car costs around 25 grand if you want any sort of extras and well over 30k if you spec it out.
Why the hell ur channel is not growing ?
You are doing a great work
Varun Antroliya What do you mean? It's growing practically every day!
MrTrull1 growth rate should be much higher compared to the quality of videos they make
Cupholders that grip bottles so you can open them with one hand? My god it's a social revolution.
person responsible for ruining front of this car should be fired immediately!
Electric tailgate was already available on the old model btw
Open bottles one-handed???? Sold.
The Superb has this too but looks a whole lot better. Rumour has it the facelift on the Superb will ruin the looks the same way though.
I predict a chief designer change at Skoda in the next few months
Already done it... Kabáň went BMW...
Norbert Havran
Should we expect the next line of BMW to be rubbish? The guy apparently did the Veyron (amazing car but the exterior design was kinda dodgy) and the new Skodas that turned to be more and more awful (Octavia 2 with facelift was the best looking). It's like he realized he ruined the design of the brand and abandoned ship. Meanwhile the latest BMW although some seemed bland were nice to look at and definitely better than the old Bangle design (except the 1 series, that was bad and now it's shit!).
What's awful about the Octavia 3, new Fabia 3 and Superb 3 and Kodiaq? Sales have gone through the roof in virtually all markets, and the Superb is stunning. It's also not just about looks, the quality is class leading too, scaring the so called premium brands.
"All engines come with a six-speed manual as standard" -- is that including the 1.6 TDI? That one used to get only five gears
Will the new Skoda Est 1 Litre pull a 4 berth caravan
Everybody's hating, yet everybody's buying. After the initial shock of the funky design, most people did start liking it, and so did I.
They simply ruined it. I mean come on Skoda..
Yep .. and if you think that a board had a meeting and this hideous monster was presented and they were happy. Something is not right ..
Daniel Fl. They simply ruined it. I look the four headlights
nooooooooo I'm in the market for a new vrs later this year ...... I don't like the front lights 😞
Stephen Butler mate me too! can you swap the previous facelift headlights and front bumper?
damn those headlights -_-
come on skoda, those headlights, come on
Why does skoda just rip headlights into two bits with their new cars
Call me odd but I like the new headlights. They aren't as good as the old ones, but they're not bad. It makes it look almost Swedish.
Ummm....I LOOVE THIS CARS..AND THE LAMPS ARE SO SUPEEERB...oh...yea!I have Skoda Octavia 3 4x4..
This is filmed in Croatia. Im happy.
Croatia is a shit country tho.
+Flix so are you idiot
Flix you're the shit, not Croatia.
🇭🇷
Island of Krk to be precise. Krk and Stara Baska.
@carwow : can u guys post a review on Skoda superb 2017
+Abhishek b n raj just filmed it.
Looks good.
Do taxi drivers really need all this?
Savage!
Taxi drivers have great taste in reliable cars, it's almost like their income depends on it..
The Octavia estate is one of the best cars on the market.
Until 2017.
2:29 Where is this place?
Krk Island, Croatia. Southern road to Stara Baska.
This looks like a Chinese copy of the old E-Class before its face lift.
They sell a lot of them in China, maybe that was the reason for this ugliness.
Its like a retarded 10 years old E class lol
The separated headlights are SO ugly. Oh my god, they've ruined it. What were they thinking? Why?
can u please do reviews on more electric cars, electric cars is definitely the way the world is going. Best car review channel cant wait to see what you review next
Future is terrible
Any idea where this was filmed?
I loved the headlights on the last one (so much I was kinda embarrassed to tell anyone) but I hate these ones, yuck! I can finally stop thinking about whether getting an Octavia is a maybe a good idea and refocus on MX-5s and hot hatchbacks
5 years late, but if you’re asking about the part that was filmed at the coast, it’s Krk, Croatia.
@@jelenatomas Cool, I mislio sam da mi izgleda poznato
@@PipeOPhile Ja sam skuzila po restoranu Mala vrata i onoj cesti sa serpentinama 😁
looks like somebody forgot how to fit LEDS
I don't understand how anyone thought that the headlights were a good idea, especially after Mercedes excised those lamps from the ridiculously extensive E-class facelift.
The Hitler-tache that houses the radar on the grille is also noteworthy and very embarrassing.
The car should be featured on 'Botched' on TLC XD.
Aside that, Skoda is way better than VW for city and family cars.
A hot VRS model is the go.
Headlights thou, kind of out of order...
When you look at the headlights you realise it is nothing else than a poor mans E class Mercedes
This will go down in automotor history as how NOT to do a facelift.
If I were transport minister, these lights would be illegal in Britain
Those front lights just look wrong....and dull.
skoda like vw are just creating nothing new in terms of design...year in and out, they all look almost the same.
yes and audis
Why is everyone frustrated about the headlights??!! Wait until you see the car in real life first!!! Then rant about it..
How the fuck they could fuck up headlight that much? Superb looks awesome, but Octavia... seriously?? The most important model for Skoda?
to make people by the Superb...
Disappointing after the good job they did with the superb.
I like the front. looks a bit like Benz but better.
That's why they say, if it's not broken don't fix it.
1:25 Yikes, thats's an awkward shape.
Shame, they've ruined the styling. Those lights are terrible.
We all moan but im sure we'll get use to the odd looking headlights (maybe) The car itself as a package is decent
Why, why, why? Finally for a long time Škoda has some really fine desing on their cars. And then this face"lift". The head light doesnt fit anything else on the cars body. Its like badly tuned teenage car.
If you really have to lift up the face, let the cars original designer do it. Not your nephew!
Hate these lamps
i think i'm liking sedans/saloons way to much...heck, i can't afford a little car factory new, how in the world am i going to afford a sedan ç-ç
10 years second hand it is! lol (proceeds to crying inside)
Would buy it if it had IRS. But without it, it rides too twitchy and nervous at highway speed limits.
The 2.0 litre engines have it.
How are these headlights an improvement ????? Just when they had a decent design they do this ....
I don't care what the head lights look like it's still a brilliant car,
Yes, I'm thinking if I can always park it close to something in front.
The lights are terrible. 2017
I hope the don't do that with the new Yeti...
I like this car but new is not nice in front. 09-02-2017
Looks like my 2005 Audi A4 diesel estate.... come on Skoda.
Why is it bad that it looks like your Audi? The 2004 A4 is a very nice car. Much nicer than any new designs of Audi.
...'cause chech people R f*kin' georgeus...👍
Capacititive?
+James Wilcox no idea. I'm from the midlands. We don't know how to talk properly. That's why I thought being a presenter would be the perfect career for me....
carwow I'm not accepting that excuse. Midlander living in Brum here...
carwow I'm not accepting that excuse. Midlander living in Brum here...
Completely disagree with all the haters here, this is actually a desirable Skoda.
LOL
Why?
eeew even the 20 year old favorit from the ninties looks much better
Agree.
That facelift is a huge step back
Looks like Skoda can't do a decent facelift to save their lives. The Mark 2 Octavia facelift was a lot less attractive from the front than the original design too. Thankfully as the driver you're the only person who won't have to look at it provided you always reverse it into your driveway.
The ugliest facelift the world has seen.
Mickey Rourke included.
Indeed it is! Ugh those headlights...
No. The ugliest facelift are all the new Audis.
Savage!! Umirem od smijeha!!
nemanja milosevic Istana stvarno he smesan
Authentic Max Yup, he really did look good ..and as a Hollywood star I can only imagine the insane number of pussies he had... I don't see your point though, does that make his facelift more successful?
why is EVERYBODY hating the car???????
here in India, the 2015-16 model was a complete flop. Not due to car but due to expensive parts and poor after sales service.
The video is cool but this facelift... what were they thinking! Jesus! ...
It lookes like a "bad - shaped" egg -.-
Looks like a 2005 car just with LEDs
My volvo v60 has seperated headlights, except they look good!!! This looks dreadful, good car but a touch ugly. Wont matter to all the taxi drivers though lol
seems like they have made it worse especially those head lamps 😐
Funny how you can RUIN A WHOLE LOOK BY ADDING A FUCKING GASH IN THE HEADLIGHTS!! Who the hell approved this? They were fine before!
Fiat Multipla defeated :D
Hahahaha, definitely not nr 1 anymore especially not for the front.
Dear carwow you named your video "2017 Skoda Octavia - how have they made it even better?" you should have named it HOW THEY RUINED IT! Look at the comments, the percentage of disgust is shockingly high! It's even worse than the new Ghostbusters!
