The engine range accommodates the latest trends in powertrain design. Drivers will appreciate not only the smoothness of the engines, but also their immediate response to the accelerator pedal, the optimal torque and low fuel consumption. With the FABIA, you can take your pick of the 1.0 l TSI, 1.0 MPI and 1.6 MPI petrol or the 1.4 TDI diesel engines. The power ranges from 44 to 81 kW and is transmitted to the front wheels. You can choose from a 5- or 6-speed manual, 6-speed automatic and 7-speed DSG gearbox.

Driving a ŠKODA FABIA is easy and fun. The low 1,075 kg kerb weight (incl. driver), fast acceleration and top speed of 196 km/h prove and foreshadow what an experience every drive will be. Another driver feature is the multifunction steering wheel with controls for the radio, phone and other settings, enabling you to focus on the driving.

The safety of you and your family is our priority, as evidenced by the FABIA’s 5-star EURO NCAP crash test result. Occupants are protected by up to 6 airbags that work in tandem with the three-point seat belts. Passive safety is complemented by a rigid body structure. Isofix and Top Tether are par for the course. When you’re in town, you’ll appreciate Front Assist, the active safety system that automatically halts the car to prevent an accident.

You’ll never be driving alone with the ŠKODA FABIA. On long motorway journeys, you’ll appreciate Adaptive Cruise Control, which drives the car at a set speed, slows down when it closes the gap with the car ahead, and accelerates again when the road is open. Driver Alert alerts you if you need to take a break. When you’re negotiating bends, you can rely on the improved controllability delivered by XDS+. When it gets dark or starts to rain, the car turns on the lights and wipers automatically.

When you buy a ŠKODA FABIA, all your parking worries are over. The parking sensors tell you exactly what is happening around the car, enabling you to park easily in the tightest of spots in front of a shopping centre. The Rear View Camera displays the situation behind the car on the infotainment screen.
