The 2014 Skoda Rapid is now available in Active, Ambition Plus and Elegance trims, while the Ambition trim that was available earlier has been discontinued. The equipment available in each of the trims continues as before.

The Skoda Rapid Ambition Plus trim gets kit like dual front airbags, steering-mounted controls, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, gear-shift and hand-brake lever, Bluetooth and USB compatibility, while opting for the top Elegance trim adds 15-inch alloy wheels, climate control and projector headlamps. 

Skoda introduced this mildly facelifted Rapid as late as October last year, and some dealers have a fair number of these 2013 cars in stock, on which a cash discount of as much as Rs 60,000 is possible. So if you are on the lookout for a new Skoda Rapid and don’t mind a 2013-model car, you could find yourself a great deal.
