Skoda Marks 30 Years of Octavia With Fan-Chosen Dragon Skin Paint in the United Kingdom
Skoda, the Czech automaker, is celebrating three decades of the Octavia model. To honor this milestone, Skoda UK has unveiled a new body color, Dragon Skin, selected directly by fans through social media voting.
A New Era for the Octavia vRS
The striking Dragon Skin paint finish will be offered as an option on both the hatchback and station wagon versions of the 2026 Skoda Octavia vRS. This exclusive shade enhances the sporty appeal of the model, making it truly stand out on the road.
Ordering for the Dragon Skin finish opens on March 4, priced at £855 or $1,158. For customers who prefer a non-performance model but want the distinctive color, Skoda is also applying this paint option to the limited-edition Octavia SportLine. Only 130 units of the SportLine featuring Dragon Skin will be available in the UK.
Since its launch in September 1996, the Skoda Octavia has been known for its exceptional practicality and value. Now in its fourth generation, it blends contemporary design, spacious interiors, efficiency, and great affordability.
