The SKODA RAPID (2017-19) 5DR SPACEBACK 1.4 TDI DPF SS 90 EU6 S is a compact five-door hatchback, offering a practical alternative to a conventional family car.

With a 1.4-litre diesel engine and 90 horsepower, this Rapid is aimed at economical everyday driving. It can suit commuters and small families needing easy access, a useful boot and relaxed motorway ability. Diesel efficiency is attractive for regular longer journeys; for mostly short trips, check that this type of car fits your driving routine. mycarcheck.com recorded seven checks across four VINs, so figures are indicative: average valuation £7,400, mileage 71,000, annual mileage 7,000 and two previous keepers. Against rivals, the Rapid Spaceback prioritises practical space and value over sportiness, for everyday family transport rather than flashy performance.
