Skoda Octavia RS
Skoda Octavia RS created a panic in 2025 as it returned to India. Limited runs sold out in just 100 units minutes, which clearly showed that the craze of performance sedans in India is still alive.
After this tremendous response, Skoda is preparing to bring a new consignment of Octavia RS to another part of 2026. The identity of the strong engine, sporty suspension and RS badges makes it special for those who consider driving not just a need but a passion.
Volkswagen Virtus Facelift
Volkswagen Virtus is going to get a mid-cycle facelift in 2026. There will be design changes and the cabin will be made more feature-loaded. It is expected that its updates will be largely like the upcoming Taigun Facelift.
The Virtus will come with the same reliable 1.0-liter and 1.5-liter turbo petrol engine on the front of the engine. Transmission options may include DCT as well as a new 8-speed automatic. Virtus Facelift will target buyers who want a balance of style and driving fun.
Skoda Slavia Facelift
Skoda Slavia, the sister car of Virtus, also has full hope of getting a facelift in 2026. Its exterior will see new front and rear designs, while the interior may be inspired by the updated version of Kushaq.
The new torque converter automatic gearbox can also be added to the Slavia, although engine options will remain the same. Slavia is made for those who want soft design, comfortable rides and the trust of German engineering.
