- I own a skoda Rapid since 2012. Rapid is the sturdiest and most powerful sedan around. Even after 7 years, the turbo works like magic and I can leave every other car behind looking like a bullock cart on highway if I wanted to. Seriously, I Love Rapid. My next car is going to be Skoda Kamiq! But I dount if my Rapid will age enough ever! So, Go for it!
- I too owned skoda rapid 2 years ago and i have a same feeling as you have now. The car is fantastic and as you said i can leave every car behind like a bullock cart on the highway thats the speciality of this car😍 If im driving in a highway with rapid the other sedan looks like a peace of cake haha
- If you look at safety and most of the common features, the mid variant can save you some money. if you're fancy about more features, obviously the top variant. The basic variant also gives you the safety and basic comfort because Skoda is best for safety and basics everyone needs..
- Go for medium spec Ambition .. if you are professional in driving choose style
- One above the base i.e. mid one or its your preference

Zero to minimum vibrations. Feel safe when inside the car, very good family carValue for moneyService cost is comparable to other similar carsI didn't find any issue with the after sales service yet. The service center calls me every year to remind me for the service, provides free pick up and drop service.Overall, the car was trouble free for the last five years and my family enjoys riding in it.
Surya Ramachandran few weeks ago -
Design that brilliantly & elegantly ages, Performance that puts a grin on your face every time you floor the metal.Built like a tank, Which makes you feel safe doesn't matter even if you are driving at a high speed.Though have heard of aftersales issues from other owners on various portals but over the 6years of ownership, Never once had an issue either with the car or the service center.
Souvik Shyam few weeks ago -
its been about 6 years now where I get my hands on skoda rapid very solid very confident,punchy and secure to drive always till now. i drived some vehicles,but none give you the feel of that power and confidence, recommend this to anyone who wants a senden in this segment,things mainly needed to changed Michelin tyre and hid headlamps and a tweeter,addition a sub if possible
