The Indian car market is growing at a rapid pace in the country. Almost all manufacturers are experiencing record sales. So it’s natural that you won’t get many discounts on such popular cars. However, there is one car that is not so popular, but still, you don’t find any discounts on it. Can you guess the car? It is the Skoda Octavia. So why is this the case? In today’s article, let’s talk about the Skoda Octavia 2023. 

Will soon get discontinued

As we all know the upcoming RDE norms are going to spell doom for several cars in the market and one of them is Skoda Octavia. Skoda is not looking to update the 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine to fit the upcoming RDE norms. This is the engine that powers the Octavia and this means the Octavia will be discontinued in April when the RDE norms kick in. So people are thronging in to buy the Octavia before it is discontinued. 

High waiting

As stated above, people are looking to buy the last few pieces of the Octavia leading to a high waiting period. As Octavia comes through the CKD route in India, Skoda doesn’t have many kits of the Octavia in the country. This shortage has led to a high waiting list for the car.

The Skoda Octavia is a car that has seen several generations in the country. But the SUV craze has killed the sedan segment. The Skoda Octavia is the last car of its segment that is still on sale. All its other competitors, like the Honda Civic, Volkswagen Jetta, and Toyota Corolla Altis have been laid to rest by their respective brands. So people who want a luxurious sedan at a decent price have only the Octavia left leading to no discounts.
