ŠKODA India has announced the launch of the limited edition Octavia ONYX. The ONYX edition is expected to be offered with aesthetic revisions like the 16-inch Premia black alloy wheels, black exterior mirrors, body-coloured spoiler, decorative foils, door sills and much more in order to make it more appealing.
The ONYX will continue to boast the same set of engine options under the hood. While the petrol variant will be equipped with 1.4-litre TSI petrol engine that produces max power of 138 bhp and peak torque of 205 Nm, the diesel engine will be equipped with a 2.0-litre TDI oil burner that is good for 141 bhp and 320 Nm of peak torque. The power will be transmitted to a 6-speed manual, 6-speed DSG auto and a 7-speed DSG automatic unit.
Commenting on the new edition, Mr Ashutosh Dixit, Director – Sales & Marketing ŠKODA Auto India Pvt Ltd said, “The ŠKODA OCTAVIA ONYX edition continues its journey with the success of the Octavia model range in India.
