BMW 530d M-Sport vs Skoda Octavia VRS 230: Turbo Petrol or Turbo Diesel? | UpShift

The Skoda Octavia VRS has been one of the most influential cars in the Indian automotive scene. The tuning capabilities and the well rounded abilities of the Skoda Octavia VRS make it a really desirable car in India. But due to limited numbers being sold in India, the 2013-2017 F10 generation of BMW 530d M-Sport also looks like a performance bargain considering you find them under 30 lacs easily nowadays. The 530d M-Sport might be a diesel but it has a proper sports saloon setup with RWD and an Inline-6. The Skoda Octavia might be more purposeful in its pursuit of performance but the BMW is surely the superior one in terms of luxury and sheer road presence. Watch the video to find out more!

    Driven the 530D M sport as well as the VRS , but that torque in 530D is simply mind blowing pins you back to the seat ..

Fact is that all the interior bits of vrs are taken from vw parts bin which come from golf, seat Leon etc which are sub 20 lakh worth hatchbacks. Interiors from bmw 5 series comes from 7 Series which is a 1cr + worth car. Octavia owners look up to the ones having a 530d and wanna get there some day.
