The Skoda Octavia III Combi 1.2 TSI (105 Hp): A European Workhorse
The Skoda Octavia III Combi 1.2 TSI (105 Hp) represents a significant chapter in the evolution of Skoda Auto, the Czech automaker under the umbrella of the Volkswagen Group. Introduced in 2013 and produced in this specific powertrain configuration until 2015, this vehicle cemented the third-generation Octavia’s reputation as a highly practical, reliable, and value-driven compact family car in its primary European markets.
