The SKODA RAPID (2012-17) 5DR SPACEBACK 1.4 TSI GREENTECH SS 122 EU5 SE SPORT DSG AUTO7 is a practical five-door hatchback, positioned between small family cars and larger models. Its roomy cabin and useful boot make it a sensible alternative to a conventional compact hatch, rather than a city car or SUV. The automatic suits everyday driving. Its 122 hp petrol engine and automatic gearbox make traffic easy, while the cabin suits commuters, couples and small families needing useful space. It is less bulky than an SUV and offers a practical, value-focused alternative to a Ford Focus or Volkswagen Golf for everyday family motoring needs. mycarcheck.com has seven look-ups for this variant, covering one VIN, so the figures are a snapshot, not a broad market sample.
