Skoda Rapid can bang upon Honda City

Skoda Rapid, the replacer of outstanding Skoda Octavia is going to launch on 7th October 2011 in Indian shores. Only the two days are left to its launch and thereafter it’ll be on one of the most competitive grounds that is been fixed for its fate by makers. Among the crowd of challengers Honda City is the one which will give to it tough competition. So, if are keen to own any of sedan into this segment then you should have closure look of both of them. For now, we can have just estimation over here because Rapid has not yet launched and to get over complete conclusion it’s must to have. But, this comparison will get its reviewers rid of from the situation of uncertainty. So, here you are.

Around their Performance

To have worthy competitiveness in the performance of Skoda Rapid, makers have decided to introduce it into both of the demanded variants i.e. Rapid Petrol and Rapid Diesel. For its petrol version 1.6 liter DOHC engine is been expecting by industry’s experts because it’s having the good approach of generating the maximum power and torque of 105 BHP and 153 NM. And its diesel counterpart is hoped to have the fitment of 1.6 liter Common Rail Diesel Engine for the power and torque adaption of 105 BHP and 250 NM

Against it Honda City is having only one variant i.e. City Petrol which is been highly applauding by Indian customers. One of its siblings is also much popular in the above segment i.e. Honda Civic. But, here as per our discussion, City engine is been fixed on the specification of 1.5 liter of engine that’s mated with SOHC, 4-Cylinder, 16-Valve of technology. It can generate the maximum power of 118 PS and torque of 146 NM that’s somewhat at the equivalent extent.

Around their Price Perks

There is no disclosures has been made by Skoda’s officials about upcoming Skoda Rapid Price. But as per speculations, the hopes are for Rs. 7.5 lakh to Rs. 9.5 lakh of bracket for it whereas Honda City price is been glued with the tags between Rs. 7,49,000 to Rs.10,08,138 that are seemed to be quite competitive.

Around their Fuel Efficiency

As we all know that City and upcoming Rapid both are fairly belongs to the segment of premium sedan. So, here we couldn’t expect greeted figures of mileage but the only thing we can do to have just concerned look over them. For Rapid Petrol mileage, it’s been hoping that it’ll have the best figures 15.4 km/l over Indian roads and 20.5 km/l of figures are hoping to be the best of Rapid Diesel mileage. In comparison, Honda City mileage is having the figures of 15.5 km/l at its best with much big difference.

Finding

It’s unfair to compare both of the upcoming variants of Skoda Rapid with enduring Honda City which is only in petrol version. And to be on genuine conclusion it’s must to have waited for some time as it’s going to launch shortly. But, after going through these specifications we can say upcoming Rapid must be the challenging one and worthy too.
