Skoda Rapid 1.2 TSi Coming

[vm2011]

With Vento face lift about to be launched can Skoda's Rapid be far behind?

Now spy pictures indicate Skoda is planning a mechanical upgrade. Rapid could get the TSI engine seen in Vento and Polo but in this case could be the MT version for being priced cheaper.

Launching new Engine option won't increase sales of Rapid. Don't know why it doesn't sell. They should make design changes to resemble the European Rapid.
Though the 1.2 TSI would be great addition, the design changes (inside & out) will improve sales I think.
