Replacing a DSG dual clutch transmission with a torque converter automatic in an enthusiast-centric sedan might not have been the wisest of decisions. Unless, the new automatic is as good… or better?

Excellent and robust car. Gives good mileage on the highway. I bought it in mid-2021 and drove around 60km, This gives a comfortable ride and good mileage of around 22kmpl on highways.Read More
- Proud Of My Choice
I bought Rapid Rider Plus on October 21. Maximum used in the city for last one month, very easy to control, and gave good mileage of 14+ in city driving. This Diwali I took it for a long ride from Mumbai to Shirdi and back, more than 550 KMs. On Pune Nashik Highway I have unknowingly touched the speed of 160+ comfortably. After returning its fuel tank was topped with only 29 litter proving the fuel average of almost 19lmpl. I feel proud of my choice of buying Skoda.Read More

- Its Simply Clever
I own the latest Rapid rider plus AT which is the most bang for the buck car. You can opt for some aesthetic accessories to make it look similar to the top end but for very little money. That apart, the fun and performance to do are the best in class in the mid-size sedans. The mid-range torque will always and always put a smile on you every day, every time. The superb (pun) steering feel with the complementing chassis and exceedingly good torque converter auto transmission makes this the best every day nimble car engaging the driver with confidence, appeal, safety, and comfort of a mid size sedan. You get what you expect in a car which is for driving. The back seat comfort is the best in class as the suspension setting takes care of you on every road surface and the stability in highway speeds is awesome. The build quality is the best the other sedans can only hope to catch up to the rapid. Mileage for the AT is decent with 15 to 16 kmpl. Now, coming to the bone of contention, I find the 6.5inch touch screen infotainment with android auto is responsive and does a very good job. The audio system is cool. Don't need a bose sound system, as the one in the rapid is cool and gives the beats. Don't agree with me? Wanna drive a car or sit in an entertainment unit? Decide for yourself. Finally the price, an automatic for 9.5lac ex-showroom! Well gets you whacked up to simply overlook it for another car.Read More
