Skoda has had the most successful rally season in the 117-year history of the brand. Skoda's team won the WRC 2 World Championship for the second consecutive time. The German rally championship in the center was the Fabia R5. That is why the Czechs decided to launch the Skoda Fabia R5.
Yes, we have not gone wrong - the special model is also called the Fabia R5. Naturally the model has nothing to do with the 280-hp rally car. However, the civilian version is the most powerful Fabia in the Czech portfolio. The 1.4-liter TSI engine of the R5 has 125 hp. The transmission is a 7-speed automatic with two clutches. this combination provides pretty decent dynamic features: from 0-100 km / h the Fabia R5 accelerates for 8.8 seconds and the maximum speed is 203 km / h. Appropriate road handling takes care of "tight-fitting and lowered sports suspension".
The special model is equipped with 17-inch wheels in black. There is also a partial black folding of the rear cover and the "Edition R5" plaque. WRC 2 Champion stickers on the front fenders.
In the interior of the small Czech car there are sports seats with a partial alcantar trim, a multifunctional sports steering wheel and the navigation information system Amundsen, Bluetooth and Skoda Connect. The Fabia R5 costs 26,000 euros.
