Skoda Rapid Rider Plus exhibits a sporty look, featuring a blacked-out grille, a muscular bonnet, halogen headlamps, and a stainless-steel scuff plate with 'Rapid' inscribed on it. On the sides, the sedan is flanked by glossy black B-pillars, ORVMs, chrome-garnishing around the windows, updated alloy wheels, and decorative decals. Further, it comes in Candy White, Carbon Steel, Brilliant Silver, and Toffee Brown colors.
