1/8/2008
For the first time Škoda Auto is going to present the new Fabia at the International Motor Show in Delhi.

The Company's event presentation portfolio also includes the new Octavia, the Octavia Tour and the Superb, which are already available in the Indian market. Altogether seven Škoda Fabia models are going to be displayed at Škoda Auto's exhibition stand, including the highly attractive "Sport Styling Kit" and the environmentally friendly GreenLine TDI.

The Octavia is going to be presented through two of the available equipment levels, the Ambiente and the top-end Laurin & Klement, the Octavia Tour will be showcased in the Ambiente and Elegance versions. The brand's presentation will also include the Superb, a vehicle that has built a very good position in the Indian market.

All Škoda vehicles sold in India are equipped with driver and passenger airbags, an immobiliser, power steering, air conditioning and central locking (except for the basic version of the Fabia line). The standard equipment level for the Fabia, Octavia and Superb lines includes a Škoda audio system with a CD & MP3 player.

The new Fabia designed for the Indian market will be available with two petrol engines (three-cylinder
1.2 12V HTP/51 kW and four-cylinder 1.4 16V/63 kW) and one turbocharged diesel three-cylinder unit
(1.4 TDI PD/51 kW) with a five-speed manual transmission. The engine and transmission portfolio for the other model lines available in the Indian market will remain unchanged.

The Škoda Roomster, the Octavia RS and the Octavia Scout will not yet be presented in India this time. Škoda Auto's presentation portfolio demonstrates the Company's top-class competences in the segments of compact vehicles, family MPVs, big comfortable sedans, as well as dynamic cars.

Škoda has sold over 49,000 vehicles in the Indian market since 2001 when it set up its presence there. Škoda India has a network of 54 dealerships, and the current production capacity of the assembly plant in Aurangabad (300,000 m2) is 30,000 vehicles/year.
