Meet the rest of the Fabia family
Make your choice your voice
Fab town. Urban legend. City slicker. This car may have many names. But there is nothing that defines the Škoda Fabia more than the person driving it. Fresh, distinctive, and eager to impress, this car is equally at home next to the sidewalk or catwalk. Numerous details shape the car’s raring-to-go attitude. While the bold wheels have the crowds staring at its feet, it's the responsive engine, LED lights, advanced safety, connectivity and ample space that earn all the compliments.

Highlights of the Fabia
Spellbinding to look at
The Fabia takes the Škoda design language another step forward. In its appearance, it is self-assured yet approachable. We’ve designed it so that you can discover interesting details no matter what angle you look at it from. We pride ourselves on having the lowest-in-class drag coefficient (from 0.28).
Škoda Fabia Design
Beautiful and functional at the same time
The LED headlights give the Fabia a focused look. Together with the distinctive grill and the inventively shaped bonnet, they are the reason why the Fabia so successfully combines sophisticated elegance with attractive dynamism. The active shut-off flaps behind the radiator grille contribute to the best-in-class drag coefficient (from 0.28), resulting in fewer trips to the petrol station.
Škoda Fabia Design
Self-assured profile
The Fabia’s dynamic look is accentuated by the rearward rising lower window line and, conversely, the falling roofline. The tornado line stretching along the entire side of the car, from the headlights to the rear lights, is a signature Škoda feature. These are timeless details confirming that there is beauty in simplicity (optional wheels shown).
Škoda Fabia Design
Distinctive from the back
The rear section is dominated by high-set wedge-shaped rear lights, their outer parts stretching on the bodywork’s sides, and the distinctive ŠKODA name in letters.
A sophisticated and spacious interior
Sophisticated down to the smallest detail and spacious in every way, this is the interior of the Fabia. The comfort of all passengers front and rear is perfectly complemented by a wide range of unrivalled Simply Clever solutions. These days, the fact that a Škoda is going to have the largest luggage compartment in its class is practically a given.
Škoda Fabia Roominess
Fits like a glove
You can look forward to a spacious and well-appointed interior, quality materials, and ingenious Simply Clever solutions. Your attention is immediately drawn to the elegant two-spoke steering wheel, the new instrument cluster, and the multimedia system with a screen up to 8.2” in size. Details meriting attention include the shaping of the inner door handles and the dashboard trim, which visually stretches across the entire width of the interior, its ends entering the round air vents.
Škoda Fabia Roominess
Room for everyone
Whether there are four or five of you, no need to fear. The Fabia has enough room for everyone. The outer seats have been thoughtfully shaped for you to travel in comfort. If you are transporting children in child seats, Isofix and TopTether attachment points will be a godsend. Standard on the rear outboard seats and front-passenger seat.
Škoda Fabia Roominess
Your luggage is taken care of
The Fabia remains top-class in practicality and ingenuity. The luggage compartment has been enlarged to 380 litres, beating its rivals hands down. By folding down the rear-seat backrests, you’ll increase the boot’s capacity to a full 1,190 litres. When loading the boot, you will appreciate its regular shape and numerous Simply Clever solutions to keep your cargo safely fixed in place.

Umbrella compartment
Škoda Fabia clever details
Umbrella compartment
The Fabia has a compartment in driver’s doors, including an umbrella, in case you get caught in the rain. The compartment is water-resistant so wet umbrella can be stored here and the water from the umbrella is drained outside the car.
Mobile phone pockets
Škoda Fabia clever details
Mobile phone pockets
The pockets on the rear side of the front-seat backrests are great for storage. But they are a little too big for a small smartphone. The Fabia resolves this with an additional little pocket that is perfect for rear passengers’ phones.
Jumbo box

Cargo elements
In typical Škoda style, the Fabia’s boot also offers hugely practical features. Items can be secured in the boot with a cargo fastener. Just slide your boxes and shopping bags, for example, so that they are sandwiched between the side of the boot and the fastener. This will stop them from sliding around. The cargo fastener can be folded away and stored in the boot floor.
Hooks in the boot

Hooks in the boot
The great variability and use of the Fabia’s boot also benefits from two sturdy hooks on the sides. They are designed to hang items or baggage which would otherwise be unstable or would not fit on the boot floor. You will appreciate them, for example, when you go shopping or need to transport your sports gear around.
Net system

Smart technology
The Fabia makes your day-to-day driving as comfortable and safe as possible.
Škoda Fabia driver safety
Front assist with predictive pedestrian protection
The front assist is a collision-alert safety system. Faced with an unavoidable collision, it applies the brakes to minimise the consequences. It also performs an emergency stop if a pedestrian or cyclist dangerously attempts to cross the path of the car.
Škoda Fabia driver safety
Driver alert (fatigue detection)
Driver alert reduces the risk of a fatigue-induced emergency. By monitoring driver behaviour, the system assesses the degree of driver fatigue and, if necessary, warns of the need for a rest and break in the journey.
Škoda Fabia driver safety
Adaptive cruise control
The adaptive cruise control (standard in the Fabia Monte Carlo) maintains a safe distance from the vehicle ahead at a selected speed, controlling the engine and actuating the brakes to automatically accelerate or decelerate as needed. The system combines a cruise control system with a radar-based distance controller and is active up to 210 km/h.
Škoda Fabia driver safety
Lane assist
The lane assist recognises an unintended departure from the lane, providing a visual message, and initiates corrective steering. It is activated at speeds above 65 km/h provided that there are recognisable lane markings on the road surface and the turn signal has not been turned on.
Truly practical technology that makes mobility safer and more comfortable.
Škoda Fabia comfort technology
Rain-light assist
The Fabia is fitted with a rain and light sensor to automatically activate and control the speed of the wipers. The light sensor activates the car’s lights automatically when the intensity of ambient light falls below a specified value (for example when driving through a tunnel or at dusk).
Škoda Fabia comfort technology
Rear-view camera with washer
Providing you with comfort and orientation during a parking procedure, the Rear-view camera uses a camera located on the fifth door handle. Combined with Škoda infotainments, the system uses their displays to show the space behind the car and to indicate the driving line, based on the vehicle width.
Škoda Fabia comfort technology
Hill start assist
The hill start assist (HSA) allows for easy hill starts without the risk of unwanted backward roll or the need to use the handbrake. When you release the brake pedal after stopping on a hill, the HSA keeps the pressure in the brake system for 1 or 2 seconds, enough time for you to set off.
Škoda Fabia comfort technology
Front and rear parking sensors
Parking the Fabia is easy due to its excellent manoeuvrability. What is more, you can be assisted by parking sensors integrated in the rear and front bumper, which check the car’s distance from any obstacles. Front parking sensors are optional.

Safety
Safety features
The Škoda Fabia is all about safety without compromise. Besides the safety systems already described, the following features are available as standard or an option:
› Isofix and Top Tether anchorage points to fasten a child seat to the front-passenger seat and second-row outboard seats.
› Unlike cruise control, which maintains a set speed, the Speed limiter allows the driver to travel at any speed up to, but not more than, the predefined value.
› ABS keeps the wheels from locking during emergency braking or when braking on slippery surfaces.
› By increasing the braking pressure, the HBA braking assist helps drivers in situations in which emergency braking is necessary. This can lead to a significant reduction in the braking distance required.
› EBD automatically optimizes braking pressure and the overall braking balance and prevents overbraking of the rear wheels.
› MSR counters the locking action of the driving wheels, which can occur when the driver decelerates on a smooth surface.
› The ASR ensures smooth starting and acceleration without the wheels spinning on slippery surfaces.
› EDL helps when accelerating or driving uphill with low traction under one of the driven wheels.
› TSA operates when the vehicle is equipped with an original towing device with its own control unit. The system works on the principle braking one or more wheels and simultaneously reducing engine torque as necessary. The TSA system intervenes and helps stabilize the car and the trailer.
› XDS+ helps the driver during sharp turns and ensures that the vehicle behaves neutrally during dynamic cornering. The control electronics essentially simulate the presence of a self-locking differential to improve traction and driving dynamics during turns. As a result, the vehicle will take bends much more assuredly and naturally than before.
› Tyre Pressure Monitoring TPM+ keeps the driver informed of the tyre pressure at all times.
› Flashing brake lights reduce the risk of rear-end impact, especially when approaching traffic jams on highways or braking suddenly in front of an unexpected obstacle.
