Or the Octavia 3 Mule?

It's meant to be superb sized.

I'd heard the Octavia 3 will be smaller not bigger

Octavia 3 will be bigger than current Octavia but there will be another model between Octavia and fabia

Hopefully it will be like the Octavia Face Lift which made a slightly more streamlined car which was also slightly lighter which resulted in a fractionally better top speed/fuel consumption as a result.

The Mission L presumably ?

Camo working well on those pics tough to really see any changes - suspect it will just be mild refresh

front spoiler looks changed... I guess they will make changes to lights... at least led DRL.. just hope it can be retrofitted

Not sure about the paint job. Do you think that comes as standard?

when is the expected launch? anyone knows

Thanks..

The differences look very subtle from what I can determine. I would expect it later in 2010 rather than earlier, maybe even more than 12 months away.

2010? - Late 2012 i would think...!

Al.

More like Q2 2012 for ordering. It might appear at the Easter Motor shows ie Geneva.

Face lift Octavia was a nice little tweak but I want to see the under skin tweaks ie DQ500 gearbox, variable valve time 210 hp TSI with 350 NM torque or 2.5 litre or even 3.2 litre turbo FSI/TSI engines, unlikely unfortunately.

I cant see any tweaks looking like the Mission L as that'd steal it's thunder.

Week 22 is when new options have been introduced at the factory for at least the past 2 years...

I wonder if its now just a hatch instead of the twin hatch/boot

Be nice to know when this will be coming out

any more news on the fl superb :

Previous press releases & comment from Frankfurt Motor show has the MissionL between the furby & Octy, so I would expect it to prob be around the size of the octy2 pre FL.

All the car manufacturers are making their cars bigger, you can see this between MK1 & Mk2 Octys, & even the FL Mk2 seems slightly bigger than pre FL.

The page quotes it as the Superb.
