With a length of 4689 mm and a width of 2003 mm, it is increasingly difficult to find parking spaces in German cities. Tight turns in particular are becoming a challenge. Even parking assistants are only of limited help. The turning circle of 10.4 meters is usually enough to find into smaller parking spaces.

The vehicle has electronics and assistants that make parking automatic, i.e. self-steering, if desired. Parking sensors are installed in the front and rear, and also on the sides. A rear-view camera is installed, which automatically displays the image in the infotainment system when reversing.

Rating: The dimensions of the Skoda Octavia can make it a real problem when maneuvering space is at a premium. Parking sensors, parking assistance like self-steering systems and at least a rearview camera are all on board with this vehicle and help in tricky situations. If you move around a lot in the city and have to rely on public parking spaces, you won't do yourself any favors with this car.
