I asked the Manager about the FE he said 18?? Now thats something which is impossible. If you drive a car without AC and without acclerating its a different thing together. After the test drive of 13 Kms, we checked the onboard computer and the pics say it all.
You also mean to say the Onboard Computer is just an eyewash??
I love the Octy but we have to live in the real world, not on paper, it may give 15 on paper but on the road i doubt it!

Buddy you know the indians, anything which is fuel efficient sells, and just for the record, the Corolla sells the most in this segment followed by the Optra and then the octy at 500 units, also not all Skoda Octavias are TDi. Also e.g is Indica/800 is the best seller in India, it sells most because of its FE and price, but that doesnot mean they are the best cars. I am not saying Octy is not a good car but its not the best is my point.
