Below is from the new Octy spec

What is a Jumbo box ??

-----------------------------------------------------------------

All 4x4 models offer the following features as standard:

- 15

Think it means jumbo storage box between front seats with its adjustable outlets for air distribution to the rear seat.

As seen in the second to bottom image http://www.skoda.co.uk/skoda3g/content/showroom/newoctavia/specifications_equipment.aspx

It gets a mention in the following link, ie The new car comes equipped with items that have so far only been used in the upper medium-class car segment. These include two-zone air-conditioning, air distribution to the rear seats through adjustable outlets at the back of the Jumbo Box, active headrests integrated in the front seats and the TPM tyre pressure monitoring system.

Somewhere to keep the elephants which have led to the mahoosive weight increase in the new models over the old ones? :confused:
