The Skoda Slavia Facelift Is Finally Here: Bookings Open, But the Price Wait Runs to October
Aug 20, 2026The Spec'd take
Why it stands out
- Only Octavia-badged performance sedan on sale in India, 265 hp/370 Nm 2.0 TSI with a sports exhaust standard
- Genuine hot-hatch-derived handling and a 7-speed DSG dual-clutch gearbox in a practical 600-litre-boot sedan body
- 10 airbags, a 360-degree camera, and driver-assistance systems included as standard equipment
Worth knowing
- Extremely limited allocation, just 50 units in the current batch, so it is not realistically available to a new walk-in buyer
- No Dynamic Chassis Control adaptive dampers on the India-spec car, unlike some export markets
- Price rose roughly 13 percent between the first batch (Rs 49.99 lakh) and the current second batch (Rs 56.69 lakh)
