Skoda Rapid User Reviews

Extremely comfortable to drive and commute.One gets a real luxury feel in this car.Though the engine produces a roaring sound which one can hear only if the windows are slided down, But the cabin sound is minimum.You don't feel any vibrations even at speeds beyond 120 kmph.It's a very responsive car and it could be handled with surgical precision.A sturdy vehicle built to last long.Now my odo just past 202000 mark, And i feel the car is as fresh as it was on the first day.Service interval is comfortable at 15000 kms / one year, May cost you about 12000-15000 minimum.It gives a pretty good mileage, On highways, If you maintain 50-60 kmph, You can even get up to 24-25 kmpl.If you maintain 80 kmph, You can expect to get 19-20 kmpl.The build quality is superb.Painting lasts long.Even after seven years and more than 200000 kms, My car is shining as ever.After sales service is pretty good, But such service centres are really scattered; and if you have to replace some parts, Which will sure be a very infrequent event, You may have to wait for even 30-45 days some times! this is a major drawback of this vehicle.These german cars are not market leaders in providing extra features like how makers like hyundai would give; they tend to follow lazily the korean or japanese car makers who are the market leaders in providing extra features, But the cars they make are really wonderful if you are that type who would enjoy the pleasures of comfortable and luxury driving.

The car is extremely comfortable with well-cushioned seats.The steering is well configured to offer better control on the road.The car build quality is the best in the segment which ensures passenger's safety on the road.The car offers decent mileage both in the city (11 kmpl) and on the highway (18 kmpl).My experience with the after-sale service is good.The service includes home pick up and drop, Car wash, Interior polish, Oil change, Ac filter cleaning, And some other things.The service cost me rs 8362.

7 Speed DSG gear box is one of the best in india very refined but noisy. but 0% noise is audible inside the cabin.

I bought Skoda Rapid 1.6 MPI in May 2012 and it is still in an excellent condition. It is a very sturdy and reliable car. It's a joy to drive the car over long distances. It is a manual petrol version that I drive and can drive beyond 900 km in one tank filling on highways. The ride is slightly on the stiffer side but the car always feels firm on road at any speed. Steering gives just the right amount of feedback. Seats especially driver and co-driver's seats are good. Boot space is great and can carry a lot of luggage. Ideal for long distance trip with multiple destinations. Overall nothing to complain. This car is loved by my family. Can not ask for more from a car.

It's always a pleasure for me to drive this wonderful skoda rapid as it's loaded with plenty of safety and comfort features.Build quality and overall look of this car is impressive.A large boot space allowed me to go anywhere i want to without any tension of keeping the luggage.It's so easy and so smooth to drive this car.

Since the roads ae very very bad one cannot blame the car totally for bad mileage or comfort or bad /spoilt shock absorbers, but simply put the car could be much better for the price paid - in all three areas - seats cushioning, shock absorbers, and quality of parts in the whole zone.
