While the new Skoda Fabia design remains secret, some information is already out there. The fourth-generation FABIA uses the MQB-A0 platform, which has allowed the new car to grow in size. The FABIA is 4,107 mm long (110 mm bigger), 1,780 mm wide (+ 48 mm), and its wheelbase has grown by 94 mm to 2,564 mm. This increase in dimensions provides a lot more room for both the car’s occupants and their luggage. The boot has grown to a volume of 380 litres. But despite the marked increase in dimensions, the constructors managed to keep the new generation FABIA’s weight almost unchanged.
That has two benefits: the new FABIA has retained excellent dynamics and, thanks to the new generation of EVO engines, the low weight also cuts fuel consumption. Fuel consumption is also reduced by outstanding aerodynamics: the drag coefficient is 0.28, the lowest in the small cars segment. Factors that enabled this excellent result include the new wheel design and optimisation of the airstream around the wheels, as well as the active slats in the lower cooling air input in the front bumper, a feature already used on OCTAVIA models.
A choice of five powertrains will be available. The basic setup is two three-cylinder 1.0 MPI engines, i.e. naturally aspirated engines. These deliver either 48 or 59 kW of power and are hooked up to a five-speed manual gearbox. The next step up comprises two supercharged three-cylinder TSI engines, one delivering 70 kW (again with a five-speed manual gearbox) and the other 81 kW with either a six-speed manual or seven-speed DSG automatic transmission. The top-of-the-range powertrain will be a 1.5 TSI engine delivering 110 kW of power that will come with the seven-position DSG transmission as standard.
It goes without saying that the FABIA comes with a wide range of safety and assistance systems. The new FABIA can have as many as nine airbags (most of them are fitted as standard; the knee airbags and back-seat side airbags are optional). And, for the first time, all passenger seats come with ISOFIX fittings and tether anchors for child seats. With maraging steel forming part of the body, the fourth-generation FABIA is one of the safest cars in its segment. 
One new option is the Travel Assist package, which brings automated driving functions. As the FABIA is right at home in urban traffic, the automated parking assist and parking obstacle detector will come in very handy.
The FABIA is also a Simply Clever powerhouse. In total there are 43 Simply Clever features, and twelve of them are brand new. These include a USB-C connector in the central rear-view mirror and a kind of large multifunctional pouch beneath the luggage compartment shelf. The pouch can carry a total weight of 3.5 kilograms and is an ideal place to put your coat, for example. And old favourites like the ice-scraper in the fuel tank cap and the parking card holder by the A-pillar on the driver’s side have been kept.
