The updated 2024 Skoda Octavia – Hatch and Estate – goes on sale with a choice of five engines, four trim levels and prices starting at £26,775.
Back in February, Skoda revealed a raft of updates for the Octavia including the usual facelift fodder of new grille, new lights and new tech including a new 13.0″ infotainment and Virtual Cockpit for every model in the range.
Now, the new Octavia goes on sale in the UK with a choice of five engines and four trim levels, in both Hatch and Estate guise, and prices starting from £26,775.

The Octavia SE L is the next rung on the ladder and adds 17″ alloys, dynamic indicators, Lounge Design Interior, heated steering wheel and windscreen, Adaptive Cruise, Lane assists, Keyless and electric boot.
Prices start at £31,250 for the 1.5-litre manual with other engine options and Estate model costing the same extra as the SE Technology range.
