Before the New Year, few new cars will be on the market, but many models in the Skoda family have chosen to go on the market at this time, including the Škoda Octavia PRO, compared to the old Octavia, the new Octavia has obviously increased its product strength. In May last year, Octavia PRO was listed in China, and at the end of January this year, Octavia PRO officially ushered in the 2022 model, the model version has been reduced, and now there are only 2 configurations, but the topic we are discussing today is how much it costs for the new Octavia PRO to raise it.
The positioning of octavia PRO is slightly higher than the original Octavia, which can be seen from the name, but in the end it is still a generational relationship, but this replacement is quite thorough. The middle net is still Skoda's classic straight waterfall design, the front bracket shape is sharp, and the design of the deflector slot is added on both sides, which is genuine. Several ribs on the bonnet are very powerful, which is also the classic design language of Skoda, and the LED headlights on the other sides are equipped with L-type day running lights, and the effect after lighting is very colorful.
The waistline on the side is intuitive, a straight line that runs all the way to the rear of the car and the taillight connection. There's a bit of a sneaky look, but it's not as obvious. The wheelbase of 2730mm is just right for this class of models, and the space performance in the car is not a problem for the average family.
The rear of the car has a slightly upturned duck wing shape, the headlights are relatively flat, is a popular element, the bottom can see the parking radar and image components. The bottom part has two silver exhaust trim pieces, and the design of the two sides is very sporty.
In the part of the car, you can see that the Octavia PRO is very simple, the central control independent screen, the silver trim, and the tightly arranged control buttons, the sense of quality is in place. Coupled with the electronic gear shift mechanism, the whole car has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the old Octavia. You can also see a lot of red stitching in the car, which can effectively enhance the sports atmosphere.
The powertrain used by the Octavia PRO consists of a 1.4T engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The maximum horsepower is 150Ps, the maximum torque is 250N·m, the power is definitely enough, and it can be a little push back when you step deeply. The fuel consumption value under the NEDC standard is 5.5L/100km.
Three Packs & Warranty Period
According to the relevant national policies, the validity period of the three guarantees for family cars shall not be less than 2 years or 50,000 kilometers (whichever comes first); the warranty period is 3 years or 60,000 kilometers (whichever comes first). Octavia PRO is consistent with national regulations in terms of three guarantees, and in terms of warranty period, it is like most joint venture brands, providing a 3-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty, which is also the first-comer.
Maintenance price
As can be seen from the above table, the maintenance price of Octavia PRO is not cheap, and the single cost is usually more than 1,000 yuan, but the frequency of replacement is not too high, except for the first insurance, which only needs to be once every 10,000 km. In addition, there are fewer replacement accessories, such as the integrated design of gasoline filter and oil pump, if it is not a failure, it does not need to be replaced, and the transmission oil and antifreeze are replaced according to the actual situation. If you calculate according to the driving distance of 10,000 km per year, it is an average of 1400 yuan per year.
Insurance/Taxes
The first year of compulsory traffic insurance is a fixed price, while the price of commercial insurance may be related to the amount of insurance, the project and the region, but the price of the vehicle and ship tax is based on the displacement, which is fixed at 300 yuan. The total amount of insurance and taxes and fees for one year is 4861 yuan, which may fluctuate up and down, and if the insurance in the previous year is not insured, the second year has a discount, but considering that after all, the new car is not familiar, and it is inevitable to rub, so "the merit is offset", it will not be calculated separately.
Fuel consumption
As mentioned earlier, the maintenance of Octavia PRO is expensive, but the maintenance can be done by itself, and the fuel consumption level cannot be changed. The fuel consumption figure under the NEDC standard is only 5.5L/100km, according to the manufacturer's suggestion is to add No. 95 gasoline, the current oil price in Shanghai is 8.12 yuan / L. Or according to the calculation of 10,000 km / year, it costs about 4466 yuan, which is about 372 yuan a month.
The annual cost of more than 10,000 yuan is actually not cheap, of which maintenance is not the majority, insurance and oil costs account for a large proportion. If the number of insurance accidents can be reduced, the cost of the car behind will be lower and lower. The fuel cost is actually related to the mileage, and this part of the cost actually depends on each car owner. On the whole, the cost of this car is high, and the way to reduce it is to reduce the risk and go to a third-party store for maintenance, or some simple filter replacement can be done by yourself.
