The Skoda Octavia lives up to its slogan "simply clever". Let’s see how, together with our friendly YouTuber: are we stuck on the road and need to get the high-visibility vest from the boot? No, because Skoda has placed one right under the driver's seat in a dedicated compartment! Lost something in the evening and can’t find it? No worries: the Octavia comes to your aid, as one of the boot lights is removable and becomes a torch you can use to search for what you’ve lost, and it’s also magnetic, sticking to the car body! Third surprise.

In the fuel flap, Skoda has included an ice scraper for emergencies.

Last little gem. Under the passenger seat, Skoda has also placed an umbrella, complete with a logo!

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
