Octavia vRS Bonneville Special the Fastest Production Vehicle in the World

A ŠKODA is now the fastest production car in the world, sporting a charged engine with a 2 litre displacement. At 365 kilometers per hour or 227.07 miles per hour, the Octavia vRS Bonneville Special model achieved the new record in the course of high-speed drives in the American salt desert at Bonneville in the U.S. state of Utah. Only a few days after the vehicle had exceeded the 200 mile speed threshold on the same track, the 600 hp strong ŠKODA racer reached the new record on 19 August, 2011, at 7:45 a.m. local time. The occasion for the drives was the ten year anniversary of the ŠKODA vRS models.
