Skoda will launch its new Octavia Scout which will be celebrating its world premier at the Geneva Motor Show, writes Trish Whelan.

The Octavia Scout will go on sale in Skoda dealerships nationwide here in August with prices starting from under €30,000 for the 2.0TDI 150bhp 4x4.

The new version has a new and improved off-road look and includes the all-wheel drive technology, with traction, climbing and start-up performance all significantly improved.

"With our changeable weather conditions, more drivers are interested in opting for our 4x4 models and this new Scout is the most advanced we have seen yet from SKODA," says Raymond Leddy, Head of Marketing and Product for SKODA Ireland.

The new version is based on the Octavia Combi. Along with other style improvements, ground clearance has increased by 33 millimetres compared to the standard Octavia. Traction has increased by 25 percent to up to two tonnes. The new Czech car masters steeper, more challenging terrain thanks to the larger approach/departure angles.

SKODA Ireland now boasts one of the largest 4x4 model offerings in Ireland with the Yeti 4x4, Octavia 4x4, Superb 4x4, and now this new Scout model which completes the line-up.
