About

The Skoda Fabia is a well-rounded compact hatchback that excels in practicality and comfort. It offers a range of petrol engines, including the 1.0 TSI in various states of tune and the more powerful 1.5 TSI. The 1.0 TSI engines provide a good balance between performance and economy, while the 1.5 TSI offers more oomph for those who need it. The Fabia boasts a comfortable ride, minimal tyre and wind noise, and a well-laid-out interior with features like adjustable seats, a digital drivers display, and various Simply Clever touches. It also comes with advanced safety features and a smooth, stable driving experience, making it an excellent choice for both city driving and long road trips. However, it is important to note that the Fabias length, exceeding 4 meters, might make it less suitable for tight city spaces in India.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Skoda Fabia, although not available in a diesel variant in the current market, is a compelling option for those looking for a practical and comfortable hatchback. If we were to consider the petrol variants available in India, the Fabia stands out for its comfortable ride, hushed cruising, and a wide range of petrol engine options. However, it lacks the excitement of some of its rivals like the Seat Ibiza and Renault Clio. The Fabias strengths lie in its stable and sensible driving experience, making it an excellent choice for daily commuting and long road trips. The interior is well-appointed with a comfortable driving position, simple control layout, and great all-round visibility. While it may not be the most thrilling drive, the Fabias reliability, good fuel economy, and competitive pricing make it a solid choice for those seeking a practical and dependable vehicle.

Price

The Skoda Fabia is not currently offered in a diesel variant in India, but if we consider the petrol variants, the pricing is competitive. The ex-showroom price for the Skoda Fabia in India can range from approximately 8.5 lakh to 13.5 lakh, depending on the trim level and engine option chosen. On-road prices, including taxes and other costs, can range from around 10 lakh to 16 lakh. This pricing makes the Fabia an attractive option in the compact hatchback segment, offering good value for money with its array of features, comfortable ride, and efficient engines.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 23 April 2024 09:18 AM The 2024 Skoda Fabia models have been upgraded with new powertrains, but these are all petrol engines. The previous 1.0 TSI unit has been replaced by a newer engine delivering 116PS, an increase of 6PS. This engine is available with a six-speed manual or an optional seven-speed DSG transmission.

Tuesday, 23 April 2024 03:26 PM Despite the lack of a diesel option, the Skoda Fabia continues to be a practical choice with its spacious interior and advanced features like Travel Assist 2.0 and Automatic Parking. I think the absence of a diesel variant might be a missed opportunity in the Indian market where diesel engines are still popular.

Tuesday, 09 January 2024 08:03 PM The Skoda Fabias design has been refined, featuring Skoda’s recognisable grille and smart alloy wheels, though it remains simple and not overly exciting. The interior has been smartened up but still includes some scratchy plastics. I believe this balance between practicality and aesthetics is a key selling point.

Wednesday, 13 September 2023 12:42 PM The latest generation of the Skoda Fabia is built on the MQB A0 platform, offering increased boot space of 380 litres and advanced safety features like Front Assist with predictive pedestrian and cyclist protection. However, there is no mention of a diesel engine in this generation.

Mileage

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 06:52 PM The mileage of the Skoda Fabia in India is quite respectable, especially with the more efficient petrol engines. The 1.0 TSI engines can deliver around 18-20 kml in city driving and up to 22-24 kml on the highway, depending on driving conditions. The 1.5 TSI engine, while more powerful, still manages to offer around 15-18 kml in mixed driving conditions. These figures make the Fabia a viable option for those concerned about running costs and fuel efficiency.
