Something to do with the sports steering wheel - its a load of BS if you ask me.

It's now time for some fuzzy photos of a completely undisguised new Octavia and also the headlight detail...

2013 Skoda Octavia III Photo, Headlight Leaked - autoevolution

Here are some more pics (interior too) and some measurements of the new model (it's not quite as long as most people were predicting).

those 'fuzzy' pics look like an AUDI to me lol

I like the new MDF, but the cluster looks boring. maybe because its non-vRS

See the felt lining in the door bins... Something I wish the current Octavia had.

I'm not sure why VW have changed the accelerator pedal from floor-mount to top-mounted... I noticed this on the new Mk7 Golf and now see it's the same on the Octavia III. Cheaper maybe?

I have to say the front on view looks quite ugly IMO. Lot's of creases/lines intersecting each other making the appearance look very busy and not very clean and refined.

OF COURSE! The black horizontal strip, headlights, grille surround, fog light surrounds are all taped to make the new model appear like the old one... Just wait until the production version photos are released - December.
