Sources claim the car is anticipated to be rechristened, but the new name hasn\u2019t been brought to light yet. A camouflaged mule of the new Skoda Rapid was seen being tested in India and it\u2019s reckoned that it might prove itself to be a worthy competitor for the new Honda City and Hyundai Verna.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-the-new-skoda-rapid\">What is the new Skoda Rapid?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The new Skoda Rapid is a completely new sedan, bringing in major updates over the current Rapid. The car will be approx. 67 mm longer, and 50mm wider than the current-generation Rapid. Along with a dramatic increase in dimensions, the feature-rich car is likely to have 520-liter boot space, and the longest wheelbase (approx. 2651mm) in its segment, making it spaciously cozier than the current-generation Rapid. Just like Volkswagen Taigun, and the upcoming Volkswagen Virtus, the new Skoda Rapid will be underpinned by the MQB A0 IN platform, and 95% of the production will be localized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135856\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-14-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"Back view of the new Skoda Rapid\" class=\"wp-image-196502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135856\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-14-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135856\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-14-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135856\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-14-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135856\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-14-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135856\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-14-834x469.jpg 834w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135856\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-14.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"new-skoda-rapid-specifications\">New Skoda Rapid specifications<\/h2>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135859\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-15-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"Interiors of the new Skoda Rapid\" class=\"wp-image-196506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135859\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-15-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135859\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-15-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135859\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-15-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135859\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-15-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135859\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-15-834x469.jpg 834w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135859\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-15.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>10-inch touchscreen Infotainment system, digital dash, Android Auto, \u2018My Skoda\u2019 connected car tech, leather upholstery, automatic AC, ventilated seats, wireless charging, six speakers, and a subwoofer.<\/li><li>Six airbags, modern Skoda grille, sharp-featured auto LED headlamps and tail lamps, sunroof, and flowing roof-line.<\/li><li>1.0-litre, TSI petrol engine with 115 PS power and 175 Nm, and 1.5-litre TSI petrol engine with 150 PS power and 250 Nm.<\/li><li>6-speed manual, 6-speed automatic (torque converter), and 7-speed DSG automatic transmission.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-the-price-of-the-new-skoda-rapid\">What is the price of the new Skoda Rapid?<\/h2>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135905\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-12-1-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"The new Skoda Rapid interiors \" class=\"wp-image-196573\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135905\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-12-1-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135905\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-12-1-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135905\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-12-1-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135905\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-12-1-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135905\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-12-1-834x469.jpg 834w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228135905\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-12-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The current-generation Skoda rapid is priced at Rs 7.49 Lakhs &#8211; 13.29 Lakhs (ex-showroom).
