Engine Displacement: 1,984 cc
The Octavia RS is powered by the latest iteration of the 2.0L 4-cylinder TSI engine. This "EA888" unit is specifically tuned for the RS badge, offering a much more aggressive power delivery than the standard Octavia.
Max Power: 261 bhp (265 PS)
Producing 261 bhp, the 2026 Octavia RS can sprint from 0–100 km/h in just 6.4 seconds. Its top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h, making it a legitimate sleeper on the highway.
Max Torque: 370 Nm
The 370 Nm of peak torque is available early at 1,600 rpm. To handle this power, Skoda has equipped it with an electronic limited-slip differential (VAQ) on the front axle to improve cornering grip and reduce understeer.
