Segment: Crossover
Production years: 2006, 2007, 2008
Hitting the showrooms in 2007, the redesigned Octavia was meant to improve its off-road capabilities and it was produced under the nameplate of Octavia Scout.
The Scout was longer, wider and higher than the Skoda Octavia 4x4. The ground clearance was also higher by 17 mm.
The exterior design was heavily modified with new front and rear bumpers, as well as side protection strips and door sill covers.
The Scout came with roof rails and 17-inch alloy wheels to enhance the practicality.
The interior of the Scout was comfortable, with leather-wrapped steering-wheel and gear stick knob. Optionally, users could choose stainless stieel non-slip surfaces for the pedals.
The roomy interior offered great space for both the front and rear passengers.
The Octavia Scout was equipped with a Haldex four-wheel-drive system that excelled in the most difficult road conditions.
Available with two engine options, the Scout could be equipped with a 2.0-liter gasoline with 150 hp or a 2.0-liter turbodiesel powerplant producing 140 hp.
The Scout offered more off-road capability than a regular Octavia and better economy and handling than an SUV.
A roomy Jumbo Box was offered as a storage unit placed under the front armrest.
Standard features also included entry lights in the external mirrors and a light assistant.
