Expert opinion and recommendation

The Skoda Rapid Diesel Style Automatic is a compelling choice for those who prioritize driving pleasure and robust performance. The 1.5L TDI engine paired with the 7-speed DSG gearbox is a standout combination, offering seamless gear shifts and impressive torque. Despite some minor issues with the DSGs downshifting and occasional jerkiness, the overall driving experience is exceptional, especially on highways where the car truly shines. The build quality is solid, with no rattles or squeaks even after extensive use, and the handling is predictable and confident. However, the city driving experience can be slightly less zippy due to the diesel engines characteristics. Overall, its a drivers car that balances performance, fuel efficiency, and durability, making it a strong contender in its segment.

Skoda has discontinued the Rapid in India, marking the end of an era for this popular compact sedan. The last variants available were the Matte Edition, priced between Rs 11.99 lakh and Rs 13.49 lakh. I think this move is a sign of Skodas strategy to focus on newer models like the Slavia.

The Skoda Rapid 1.5 TDI DSG was highly praised for its performance and fuel efficiency.

The Skoda Rapid Style 1.5 TDI AT was the top model in the Rapid lineup, offering features like automatic climate control, rear AC vents, and a 7-speed DSG transmission. It provided a mileage of 21.72 kmpl and had a 55-litre fuel tank. I believe this model offered great value for money in terms of performance and comfort.

In its later years, the Skoda Rapid underwent a facelift that enhanced its design and features. The facelift included a revised bumper design and a sporty rear diffuser, which improved the cars overall look. I think these changes made the Rapid look more modern and appealing.
