Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Volvo EC40
- Looks sporty yet distinctive
- Insanely quick and fun to drive thanks to 408PS dual motors
- Comfortable ride quality for our roads
- Has almost all the features one would expect
- ADAS works well despite illegible road markings
Skoda Octavia RS
- Handles like a sports car: The steering is direct and progressive while the chassis feels like it can take on more
- Performance: Smooth and easy in the city, but quick and exciting when you want to have fun
- Super practical: Has enough storage spaces inside the cabin and a big boot for a long vacation
- Sleeper design: Doesn’t look overly aggressive, but is immediately recognizable to the people who know

Volvo EC40
- Space saver eats into the small 413-litre boot
- Small rear window means view is almost non existent
Skoda Octavia RS
- Ride quality: Can be too stiff for our broken roads
- Ingress egress is super inconvenient with a low roof that requires you to duck a lot.
- Rear seats: Adequate space, but the limited sense of space makes it feel claustrophobic
- Sound: Engine and exhaust sound a little muted for a performance-oriented car
