Skoda Octavia Scout 2017 and Octavia RS – the first test drive|RSC|Reviewsupercars

Following the usual modifications of Octavia Skoda, the Czechs updated versions of RS and Scout. And demonstrated them in one place and at one time.

The occasion: the driving premiere of the updated Octavius – the up-and-coming 4WD Skoda Octavia Scout and hot Skoda Octavia RSLLocation: Vienna, Austria

Impressions : the instructor rides first. Following him is a journalist from Slovenia. I am the third. A kind of train from several “cars”, winding circles along the ring road at the test site near Vienna. Each next round of the instructor runs faster than the previous one and at some point the car starts to gradually fall behind the leader and obviously keeps my pace.

When I started mentally kosterit this guy for leaving the race track and paddling at the retirement pace, he suddenly realized: he has a diesel engine! Kli that under the hood Octavia RS a powerful gasoline turbo engine.But in Europe under a promising badge can also hide a modest two-liter diesel engine with a capacity of 180. Later, I swept this car and I can assure: do not get upset that In Russia there will be no such modifications.

Despite the solid torque of 380 N ∙ m, the diesel Octavia RS exchanges a hundred for 7.9 seconds, t As a petrol engine with a 2.0 TSI engine (now it develops 230 forces against 220 on pre-stalling machines), it manages to exercise in 6.7 seconds, while the petrol engine clearly consists in a more trusting relationship with the 6-step DSG robot: responses to the accelerator And it is always possible to order Octavia RS on mechanics.

But to choose the gearbox in the Russian configurator Skoda Octavia Scout will not succeed. Juggle transmissions will be a 6-step DSG robot, working in conjunction with an 180-horsepower 1.8-liter petrol turbo. For a car that does not pretend to sportiness, it’s a great combination. And if we talk about dynamics, this Scout can accelerate to hundreds even faster than the diesel “erska”. Although this up-and-coming station wagon in general “is not about that.”

] SScore: Octavia RS is excellent: so much Octavia Scout is also good, but this offer is not unique.

Prospects : both cars are very niche, but if the Octavia RS (from 2,196,000 rubles) uniquely finds Its customers, then who may need Octavia Scout (from 1,962,000 rubles) at live Kadiak (from 1,999,000 rubles) – I will not be able to guess.

The Toyota FT 4X concept crossover has made a small design revolution | RSC

Toyota FT 4X : When the Toyotavians get bored, they call to California. We are not about resorts, but about the design studio Calty, who participated in the creation of numerous famous models of the company. That’s  Toyota FT 4X  – the work of stylists of the “Golden State”. The case is young, bright and requiring serial continuation. The company claims that the crossover is designed for millennials, that is, born in the late eighties and early nineties, who live in the city, but periodically spontaneously gather and break into nature.

The concept turned out to be a real snag. Do you think a car with a playful a la Lunkhead, but at the same time it is quite an adult appearance that is large in dimensions? No matter how it is! Firstly, it was built not on a frame chassis, but on a modular TNGA architecture with a transverse arrangement of the power unit. Secondly, its length is only 4249 mm, and the wheelbase is 2616 mm. Sub-compact  C-HR and then more: 4360 mm and 2640 mm respectively. Technical details are not yet reported, only four-cylinder engine and four-wheel drive transmission with lowering gear are known.

Toyota FT 4X

This  Toyota FT 4X show car is not what it seems.

The rationality of using the interior space, its originality and convenience of access, the experimental Toyota recalls the Honda Element. Please note that the Toyota FT 4X has gone against the modern fashion and does not have a front panel with touchscreens, but it does not hide the unusually designed digital instrument panel and the most interesting thing is that it allows you to hoist a smartphone over it, the benefits of fastening are available. The rear doors are sliding, and the “gate” is transformable: it can be lifted upwards or opened as two swinging doors.

Under the floor, which, it seems, can be washed from a hose, is a roomy compartment. But this is expected, but the sleeping bag of the famous “tourist” brand The North Face between the front seats, playing the role of an armrest, and a removable stand-alone speaker system – the solutions are rather unusual. On the production plans so far silence, but, we believe, the car has all chances to be on the conveyor. We also need such a crossover!

Datsun mi-do problems with the multimedia system – site Driving |RSC |RSC

The editorial Datsun mi-DO does not let it get boring. Only we figured out with the automatic box, how new problems arose, this time with a multimedia system.

Datsun mi-DO from the park of the ZR

Datsun mi-DO from our park regularly gives occasion for reports. I had not timed to get used to the fact that everything was working, as there was a new misfortune.

This time, the multimedia system was screwed up. At one point, the screen showed an error. And the screen itself did not react at all to touch. Something similar has already happened before. Also, it was treated by a banal system restart. Only once did it take to restart the engine. Because I quietly rebooted multimedia. Did not help. Well, then we’ll try to restart the car. And again without results …

I again have to go to the official service center. Benefit mileage was approaching 45,000 kilometers, which means the time has come for the next maintenance. In addition, besides the non-working multimedia system, I have accumulated questions. First, the valve cover gasket leaked. And secondly, the “parking brake”, which we already regulated, is again weakened.

At one perfect moment, the multimedia system hung. And on the screen appeared such a window with an error. It turns out that such a nuisance can be eliminated independently by holding the power button for 24 seconds.

At one point the multimedia system hung. And on the screen appeared such a window with an error. It turns out that such a nuisance can be eliminated by holding the power button for 24 seconds.

When I arrived at Major, on Novorizhskoe highway, I told the master everything. He promised to do a diagnosis and, if necessary, to repair the entertainment complex of Datsun. However, he warned that if the case is non-guaranteed, then the diagnosis will have to be paid. Who would doubt that! Not at all surprised (precedents with denial of the guarantee we have already happened), I still asked how this could be a non-guaranteed case. What had to be done to keep the system tight? Master calmly replied that the screen and the insides of the system could pour Coca-Cola! It would be interesting to look at this …

In general, I gave the car for service, in the depths of my soul, preparing to pay for the diagnosis.

Here it is, the unfortunate lid, due to the lack of which the control unit of the AKP through mud and it went out of order. We have not yet strengthened the fastening. Let’s see how long the lid will last.

Seats for a stub in the new fender, which had to be bought in its entirety. Fortunately, it costs only 500 rubles.

Planting places for a cap in the new fender, which had to be bought in its entirety. It’s worth only 500 rubles.

No payment was required. The case turned out to be a guarantee. The system was reset and everything worked. By the way, the master for the future suggested how to reset the multimedia system independently: to do this, you must hold the power button for a long time. But I kind of did it. It turned out that I did not press the button long enough. It needs to be held for 24 seconds! If God forbid, the system again breezes – I’ll definitely try.

Though for diagnostics it was not necessary to pay, THAT itself appeared not cheap by Datsun standards – ten thousand rubles. In addition to regular work, the valves had to be adjusted (the second time in 45,000 km), the replacement of the valve cover gasket, and the retraction of the parking brake.

I have not forgotten about the lost stub of the front left-hand fender cover because it became the culprit of problems with the automatic box. But this lid is not sold separately, only assembled with a sash. At first, upset. However, all the fun is worth 500 rubles. Because I bought the fender cover and just asked to rearrange the necessary part. Once again I was convinced that even with the Datsun emblem it is still a VAZ, and the prices for spare parts are appropriate. Last time a similar story was with the lid of the washer fluid. Separately, it was also not sold, so I had to buy it with the tank … for 120 rubles!

Well, the serviceman Datsun continued his service in the editorial office and began to approach the first serious milestone of 50,000 km. Let’s hope that he will approach him without any new problems.
