When Skoda confirmed the world debut of the estate version of the new, third generation Octavia at the Geneva Auto Salon on March 5, it did so by releasing only two pictures of the car, leaving the rest to our imagination and our previous viewings of the liftback model.
Thanks to Caradisiac, we won’t have to wait another week to get a better look at the Octavia Combi Mk3, as the French site had the opportunity to walk around and film a video of the car.
The clip is in French, but the basic things you need to know about the latest iteration of the Octavia Combi is that it features a 110mm longer wheelbase along with a 90mm longer and 45mm wider body overall, and sports a huge boot measuring 610 liters, which can increase to 1,740 liters with the rear seats folded down.
Engine options are shared with the liftback and will be detailed during Skoda’s media presentation in Geneva.
