Skoda Australia has launched a track-focused project car to promote the new vRS.

The Skoda Octavia RS-P features a turbocharged 2.0-litre engine, which produces 254bhp and 258lb ft of torque. A standard Octavia vRS produces 197bhp and the same 258lb ft.

These upgrades have been achieved by a retuned ECU module, a three-inch stainless steel exhaust system and a new enlarged air-filter.

Upgrades include 355mm front and 310mm rear disc brakes, which are hidden behind black 18-inch alloy wheels. It rides on grippy Yokohama Advan tyres.
