First of all, to start things off, the octane is on the Rocket League badge/symbol. It is the car of Rocket League! And for a very good reason too.
For one, the hitbox. The hit box is basically a box around the car where the car can make contact to the ball. Some cars have bigger hitboxes than others. The bigger hitbox the better. So compare these cars hitboxes -

So as you can see the Octane has a larger hitbox than others, enabling the car to hit the ball in a wider span. It also enables the car to win more 50 50 challenges because it can hit more of the ball. So for kickoffs, this car would be preferable. You see pros playing in RLCS and notice the car they're using. It is mostly the Octane with some exceptions of perhaps the dominus, breakout, or the batmobile if you're looking at Kuxir. The Octane also has the best turning radius of all the cars allowing it to turn quicker and be faster to balls and saves. The Octane is also such a good looking car compared to the rest. Maybe the dominus is the only car that looks better than it.

So this being said I hope you all will use the Octane because it will improve your game once you get used to it. But then again. In reality the best car in Rocket League is the one you feel most comfortable with but if you were really going for the stats, then the Octane is the car you want to go to. It's beautiful dribbling skill and control will amaze you if you have not been using it already. Air dribbles are so smooth, 50 50s easily won. You just feel so in control with this car. I recommend this deeply and I hope you guys enjoyed, be sure to stay tuned for more Rocket League posts and guides, and I will see you next time!
