Description: The Skoda Octavia RS has been a vital player in the brand's range in Australia for years now, and this new version is smarter, sharper and even cleverer than the last one. With a liftback sedan or wagon to choose from, and still with a punchy petrol turbo engine, is this the best alternative to a Subaru WRX on the market right now?

Read on to find out why I think this is one of the best new cars of 2021.
