The fourth-generation FABIA continues ŠKODA’s extraordinary success story of offering all you need and a little more. Twenty-two years after its debut, the popular small car is more emotive and dynamic than ever before.
This is the first FABIA to be based on Volkswagen Group’s modular MQB–A0 platform. It is the most spacious car within its segment and boasts further enhanced comfort features as well as a plethora of new safety and assistance systems.
Classic brand qualities, such as excellent value for money, high functionality and a host of Simply Clever features, make this car the perfect entry-level model to the ŠKODA range. The new ŠKODA Fabia is now available to order in Ireland and it is competitively priced from €19,150.
John Donegan, ŠKODA Ireland Director, said: “The new FABIA provides the perfect entry to our range. The new Fabia has generous amounts of space, the highest levels of quality and safety, and excellent value for money – with an emotive design and exceptional fuel economy.
“I am convinced that this overall package will allow us to further strengthen our position in the entry-level segment and attract new customers to the brand.”
ŠKODA Ireland has sold more than 5,280 Fabia’s over the last five years in Ireland. The most common reasons for buying a FABIA included its value for money, low running costs and impressive amount of space.
The latest-generation FABIA also features a particularly emotive design, improved dynamics and numerous new assistance systems.
Now based on the modular MQB-A0 platform, the FABIA is longer and, at 4,108 mm, exceeds the four-metre mark for the first time. The boot – which was already the largest in the segment – has gained an additional 50 l to a capacious 380 l.
The FABIA boasts well-balanced proportions, sharply drawn headlights and rear lights featuring the latest LED technology. Inside, the instrument panel with a free-standing central display and optional digital instrument cluster catch the eye. Infotainment and connectivity are state of the art.
The Active, Ambition and Style trim levels will be available from market launch. Four petrol engines from Volkswagen Group’s current EVO generation deliver power outputs ranging from 48 kW (65 PS) to 81kW (110 PS). Segment-leading aerodynamics with a drag coefficient (cd) of 0.28 and the optional 50-litre fuel tank enable a range of more than 900 km in the WLTP cycle.
