Speaking to the media, Zac Hollis, Director- Sales, Service & Marketing, Skoda Auto India said, "Initially we sold out the Octavia RS but then there were some cancellations due to the Covid situation in the country. So a few RS are available for customers. For many people personal situation has changed, but it also gives an opportunity to those who missed out on booking the new Octavia RS." Deliveries of the model have already started and the first Skoda Octavia RS 245 was delivered to a customer in Goa as soon as sales operations were allowed to resume in the country.
