Skoda Laura vRS : Test Drive & Review

The Skoda Laura vRS has been launched in India at a price of Rs. 15.19 Lakhs (ex-Delhi). What you'll like about the Laura vRS: • Turbo-charged direct injection petrol is the best in class. Great low end torque, revv-happy and powerful • Sharper and more nimble handling, due to the revised spring rates • Confidence inspiring dynamics, brakes and chassis • Classy yet sporty interior, solid build & great front seats • 4 airbags, electronic driving aids and other safety features What you won't: • No option of the much loved dual-clutch gearbox (DSG) on any petrol Laura • Missed opportunity for a diesel vRS, especially with current fuel prices • Lack of equipment; no USB input, steering mounted audio controls & climate control etc. • A 2+ lakh price premium over the lower variant, for not so much more kit • Skoda’s ill-famed after sales service NOTE: Click any picture to open a larger high-res version in a new window.
