    I drive a Skoda Octavia LnK. It’s a car that brings a smile on your face every time you rev the engine - it’s simply too quick to be true!

      Exactly nobody would like to choose new Elantra because down in design gives much artificial look and two other looks way better compared to it

    Elantra has always been the most value for money sedan in it's class comparative ly.
    But Octavia is for enthausiasts. It's 1.8tsi is a gem
    But worst thing is that upcoming new gen Octavia will not meet bs6 means it's 1.8tsi will be discontinued ☹️
    Civic is more dynamic than the Octavia and Elantra
    But still some cost cuttings are there which isn't acceptable for a car of this price
    Overall if you want a sedan at 22lakhs Elantra is the only one u should go with
    If money doesn't matter then Octavia is the one

    The Octavia is an awesome car, until you own it and regret getting one. I mean, I wonder how any sane person would spend 25L on a car knowing very will that AS&S is going to be horrendous. Only an enthusiast who is willing to spend considerable amount of time and money would get one. The Civic and Elantra makes more practical sense.
    And when Honda brings their Turbo Civic and Hyundai brings their Turbo with DCT, Octy's sale would slump even further. Considering the fact that the new gen Creta comes with a 1.4 Turbo Petrol and DCT, I won't be surprised if the next gen Elantra comes with a bigger Turbo Petrol and DCT.

But things would change if Hyundai brings in the 1.6 Turbo and you can see the Skoda sales drop like a mosquito hitting a bat !

You can drive this machine all day without fatigue. i enjoy driving my car even today. the secret of healthy car is "Drive your car yourself, never lend your car to others".
