.............................................................
This is the all-new Skoda Fabia!
Now for starters, the new Fabia isn’t exactly unique. Once you get under the skin, it’s pretty much identical to a Volkswagen Polo or SEAT Ibiza! The question is, does this new Fabia offer enough to sway you away from its German or Spanish counterparts?
Well, let’s take a look at what’s new. For starters, the exterior design has had a full redesign, with an all-new grille, LED lights and a huge ‘SKODA’ badge at the back. It’s also been redesigned to assist with drag, from the alloys and even the size of the side mirrors!
Once you step inside, it’s fair to say the Fabia has one of the nicest small car interiors to sit in, with super-comfy seats upfront & in the back. You’ll also find a fair bit of tech, such as a digital drivers display, and you can even get a panoramic sunroof, too!
As for performance, there’s a choice of three petrol engines to choose from (that’s right, no diesel or electric options!), with the top-of-the-range being a 1.5-litre turbo petrol with 150hp.
So what do you think, is the new Fabia the must-have small car of 2021/22? You’ll have to keep watching to find out!

Im sure the product development team of the Polo get paid more than the Golf; the Polo is so good, with quality that's so close to the golf and its less expensive and actually the same size as a MK4 Golf, its hard to justify an actual Golf now. Probably why the Fabia and Ibiza are so impressive and the Golf, Octavia and Leon should really be better than they are.

It seems odd Skodas aren't sold in the US and Canada, as they could readily use the VW service network. Skoda use VW engines, transmissions and many other VW parts. VW have owned Skoda for 20+ years..... Here in Europe, Skoda consistently achieve higher customer ratings than VW in ownership surveys. Build quality seems every bit as good as VW, and occasionally even better.....
@dorianmanto7513

​ @Brian The reason is it would lower VW sales and compete with them.

1:50 you ask why not LED rear lights as standard? LED headlights are now becoming standard as they use less energy than halogen or xenon and actually reduce the CO2. Rear lights however use relatively little energy so not worth the higher cost to fit as standard.

That's Skoda through and through. My first Fabia Estate (2001) had features I hadn't seen on other cars. It had a little clip on the driver's windscreen pillar, to hold a pass or parking ticket. It had 2 sliding cubbies under the front seats, which held quite a bit. And there were substantial folding hooks in the boot, to hold full carrier bags. I also liked the shelf in the glovebox.

@@corentindockx How much does a new LED rear light cost? Vs how much do all rear light halogen bulbs cost? You'd need to spend a lot on halogen bulbs to ever reach the cost of LED light. I just recently swapped out all rear light bulbs on my Skoda Rapid and it cost me 10€. And I even got more expensive Philips bulbs. If I only changed the one that burned out I would have spent like 0.50€.

This is the first time I've seen a small car have a swivel front seat. Actually I don't think I've ever seen a swivel seat in any car except maybe a limo, or motorhome. That is a huge selling point for those with little ones. Makes it easy to pay attention to them from both the driver's seat, and the back. 👍✌

The new fabia looks really nice! Would pick this over the polo any day (would pick the estate/combi though). Having driven both VW and Skoda cars, I must say I disagree with the cruise control stick - I much prefer it over having it being placed on the steering wheel. With the stick, I can enable/change settings even if I'm doing a turn.

On Skoda's website in the UK smallest seem to be 15s, with highest trims defaulting to 16" alloys of the same design in the review. I'd probably go with 16s, they don't look about right size-wise and still leave a nice bit of sidewall.

Bad news on that front - like there was no vRS version of the Mk3 Fabia, there will NOT be a vRS version of this new Mk4 Fabia either. This is because although demand for a vRS version of the Fabia would be strong in the UK and Germany (where it would be badged as an RS), unfortunately, as there wouldn’t be enough demand elsewhere, that wouldn’t be enough to build a strong enough business case for a new Fabia vRS.

@ondrej2565 2 года назад
@@joshbacon8241 I think its because of the VAG politics. They dont want GTI Polo customers considering Fabia RS. In central and eastern Europe people dont mind Skoda badges. The car would be almost the same, but with lower price tag and a bit more practical. For the same reason you can only get Octavia RS 245 hp and fwd, oposed to Golf R or Leon Cupra even though its the same engine. IMO Volkswagen is kinda pissed that Skoda is doing so well sales wise...
