Skoda hints at €15,000+ for Fabia

Skoda Fabia

SKODA here has hinted at the price of the new Fabia which gets here in early January.

They say it is likely prices will start somewhere between the range-topping Citigo (€14,500) and entry-level Rapid (€16,495).

So are we safe to assume it will be somewhere around the €15,500 mark?

The third-generation Fabia makes its public debut at Paris in October.

As we revealed here last week, While its length stays under four metres, it is 30mm lower, a substantial 90mm wider and 65kg lighter. This is expected to improve room in the cabin. Boot space is expected to be in the region of 330 litres.

As we reported last week, it will have four petrol and three diesel engines and be, on average, 17pc more economical.
