Special model commemorates 125 years of Skoda Motorsport

Skoda has unveiled the limited-run Fabia Motorsport Edition to mark 125 years of its motorsport tradition.

Building on the Fabia 130 special edition, this limited-edition model is available exclusively in Moon White metallic paint, complemented by black pillars and a black roof. The exterior is further defined by black-painted details, including the front and rear spoilers and the diffuser.

The Fabia Motorsport Edition builds on the Fabia 130 special edition and features a model-exclusive Moon White metallic paintjob

It features special decals inspired by the current Fabia RS Rally2 competition car. Bi-LED headlights with black inner surrounds sharpen the look of its front end. 18-inch Libra alloy wheels in a smoked finish, together with lowered suspension, create a dynamic stance, while a twin exhaust tailpipe beneath the diffuser completes its overall look.

The sports interior sees a black interior colour, while front sports seats with integrated head restraints, like the dashboard, are enhanced with carbon-look trim. Exclusivity is underlined by the plaque on the dashboard showing the car's individual number within the limited run of 125 units, as well as the Skoda Motorsport 125 emblem on the three-spoke sports steering wheel and the woven floor mats.

At the heart of the Fabia Motorsport Edition is an enhanced 174bhp 1.5 TSI evo2 engine that also delivers 250Nm of torque. Its seven-speed DSG transmission has been enhanced, with higher shift points for faster acceleration, rev-matched downshifts in Sport mode, and revised braking logic for quicker re-acceleration.
