Skoda India had to stop bookings of this sedan because the demand exceeded the supply. After that the Skoda Rapid Rider Plus was launched, with a higher price tag as well as more features. Skoda now has reintroduced the Rapid Rider version. It is priced Rs 30,000 more than before and now retails for Rs 7.79 lakh. There are no changes to the feature set of this sedan, usually associated with an increase in price.
The feature set includes automatic climate control, power windows at front and rear, two-DIN music system, rear AC vents, power adjustable mirrors and rear defogger. There are full wheel caps provided as well. Safety is taken care by dual airbags, ABS with EBD and rear parking sensors. Skoda uses a new 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine with this car. This engine makes 110hp of power and 175Nm of torque. With the Rapid Rider, there is a 6-speed manual transmission available. The automatic though is available with higher-up versions.
