december 7th i hear on the grape vine.......

I heard the 11th, but we pretty much know what it looks like. I'm keen to see the interior and panoramic roof.

Apologies for my earlier post, it's been a horrible day and I'm totally over every one of my comments being scrutinised on here. At least I am no-where near as bad as that P-plater in a Superb and his rampage towards someone who ran up him (if everyone remembers that correctly )!

But that doesn't explain why the Jetta 2.0TSI/GLI in the US (wish we got that here...) has the same power figure as the RS, yet the GTI has more. Skoda need to do another Octavia RS-P and this time actually put it into production. They need some cool factor and I'm not sure this new Octavia will bring it (of course, we haven't actually seen it).

The Jetta GLI has the same power in the USA as the Golf GTI in the USA

The Jetta GLI has the same power in the USA as the Golf GTI in the USA

Which is 200hp (147kW - same as the RS/Golf GTI MkV/current Jetta 2.0TSI here). I'm not sure what you're trying to point out but sorry, I didn't know the GTI is detuned for the US.

[dArK5HaD0w]

in typical american fashion - they (in the US) use a different engine altogether than the rest of the world.

US MK5/MK6 2.0 TSI Engine
CCTA
CBFA
CCT and CBF denote the engine's mechanical structure. IE, secondary injection (CBF) vs non secondary injection (CCT). A, the 4th letter, denotes the power output for the calibration, ie both rated in the us for 207ft-lb/200hp (147kW).


ROW (rest of the world) MK6 and A3 2.0 TSI Engines
CCZA - A3, RS
CCZB - MK6
CCZ denotes the european mechanical structure.
A and B denote a software calibration change for different power levels. A has 200hp (147kW), B has 210hp (155kW).

the above belong to the new EA888 family.
the mk5 golf gti, pre-facelift RS, golf r.....all use the previous engines - the EA118.

[Tigger]

So do we think that the new RS will still use the EA888 engine?

I kinda have a soft spot for this motor now, as I have had it in the Tiguan, and now the RS...

I like the sound of it.

OR...here is a thought....stay with me....
Will they use the sound actuator thingy that the Polo GTI (and Focus ST) has to make it sound better??

The sound in my wife's GTI is sooo addictive!!

[Tigger]

Oh, and did someone say that the new Octavia will have the Panoramic roof???

Yay!!

That is one thing I really miss from the Tiguan I had...

And what will the chances be of the new Octavia having an electric auto tailgate like the Passat? Or will they just reserve that for the Supurb?

I think that they will be the new black soon.
I'm sure I read somewhere that the new model Audi S3 uses one as well. I wonder how long it will be before you will be able to select Quiet, Sport, or teenage P Plater as sound output options in the user display?
