Škoda Fabia


The offer of Škoda models was enlarged by the Škoda Fabia in 1999. It was officially presented on 14th September 1999 at the 58th Frankfurt Motor Show. It was evident that its attractive design would ingratiate immediately.

Thanks to the sufficient interior space, high level of active and passive safety and for its value for money Škoda Fabia proved that it belonged to the best in its class.

Since 2004 Škoda Fabia cars were produced with many important innovations. In the exterior the new front bumper and the new design of the rear lights were noticeable. Structure of the equipment versions was adjusted (the Comfort version was replaced with the Ambiente) and the offer of interiors was completely changed – since 2004 it included new colour schemes.
