Skoda teases the new Fabia

Skoda is building anticipation for the upcoming fourth generation of the Fabia by releasing the first official design sketches. The company says the new car will be “significantly larger, more dynamic and more expressive than its successful predecessors”. Switching over to the Volkswagen Group’s Modular Transverse Toolkit MQB-A0 has made the new proportions possible and created more space for passengers and luggage. Additional highlights, according to Skoda, include the sharply drawn front headlights and rear lights featuring LED technology. The world premiere of the new Skoda Fabia will take place this May.
