New 2014 Octavia Spied!

t maybe, but I would say probably not. what engine would they put in it? They already have an RS Fabia with the 'smaller' engine, then the big brother RS Octavia. do VW have a performance model in the mid range?

Stick a tweaked 1.8T engine in it.

Stick a tweaked 1.8T engine in it.

Or a 1.6T? A-la-Cruze?

OR, put the new Golf7 GTi TSI into the RS Rapid, and put a 250+KW V6 AWD setup into an RS Octavia

Well, VW have a 1.8T. Not sure they have a 1.6T.

3.0TDI?

Well, VW have a 1.8T. Not sure they have a 1.6T.

They could bore out a 1.4T a little bit?
I dunno how much extra space there is in that little engine block.

Would still like to see the Rs with the blown 4, and maybe an RS-R or something with the new Golf R engine and AWD.

hell id take the current engine with AWD. IMO that's the let down of the current Octavia RS. we need an AWD option!!!

Yes, AWD would be awesome

I find it very hard to use my stage 2 power on standing starts (wheel spin, traction control, poor road surface)
That's why I'm trying different tyres on the front, need more grip
So far the Goodyear F1 Asysmmetric does not appear to be as good as the Michelin PS3
