  • New 1.5 TSI engine now with even more advanced optimisation for running on eco-friendly CNG (compressed natural gas)
  • Considerably increased output of 96 kW (130 PS) with low NO x and CO 2 emissions
  • Three CNG tanks with greater capacity for a range of up to 480 kilometres in CNG mode

Mladá Boleslav, 21 September 2018 – ŠKODA is upgrading its range of eco-friendly CNG vehicles. The ŠKODA #octaviagtec now boasts a new, more powerful 1.5 TSI engine with an output of 96 kW (130 PS).

Exclusively available with a COMBI body and the Active, Ambition or Style equipment lines, the ŠKODA #octaviagtec achieves a range of 480 kilometres in its more eco-friendly pure CNG mode. This is based on three tanks holding a total of 17.7 kilograms of CNG. An additional 11.8-litre petrol tank safeguards mobility in regions without CNG filling stations

The new 1.5-litre engine in the ŠKODA #octaviagtec has an output of 96 kW (130 PS) – 15 kW (20 PS) more than its predecessor. Thanks to variable intake valve timing with Miller cycle operation, it is also very efficient.

In CNG mode, CO 2 emissions are reduced even further, by around 25 per cent compared to petrol, with considerably lower nitrogen oxide (NO x ) output and no particulate emissions. As a result, the ŠKODA #octaviagtec complies with EU6d-TEMP, the most stringent current emissions standard, making it an eco-friendly alternative to cars running on conventional fuels.
