Gearbox: 7-Speed DSG (Dual-Clutch)
The Octavia RS comes exclusively with a 7-speed DSG automatic. This gearbox includes a "Launch Control" feature and steering-mounted paddle shifters for manual overrides during spirited drives.
Drive Type: FWD (Front-Wheel Drive)
While it is Front-Wheel Drive, the RS features a sports-tuned chassis that sits 15 mm lower than the standard sedan, significantly lowering the center of gravity for better high-speed stability.
