Design sketches offer first impression of new ŠKODA FABIA MONTE CARLO

› Fourth-generation FABIA continues the tradition of sporty lifestyle variants

› Sporty exterior with numerous black elements and unique MONTE CARLO skirts
› Sporty interior design with red accents and carbon-style elements

Mladá Boleslav, 2 February 2022 – ŠKODA AUTO has released several official design sketches, offering a first glimpse of the new FABIA MONTE CARLO. The sporty lifestyle variant made its debut eleven years ago in the second-generation FABIA. The signature black MONTE CARLO elements show off the fourth-generation FABIA’s considerably more emotive lines and dynamic proportions. Carbon-style elements and red decorative trim strips provide accents in the sporty interior.

 

The exterior sketch of the new ŠKODA FABIA MONTE CARLO shows how the signature details of this model version enhance the emotive design and dynamic appearance of the new FABIA. The frame of the ŠKODA grille features the same black finish as the spoiler lip on the exclusive front apron, which is characterised by a large air intake. The diffuser in the sporty rear apron and the lettering on the tailgate are also finished in black, as are the exterior mirror caps, the window frames, the side skirts and the rear spoiler; the wings feature MONTE CARLO badges.

The interior is predominantly black. The height-adjustable sports seats benefit from integrated headrests, while the 3-spoke multifunction sports steering wheel bears the MONTE CARLO badge. The leather trims for the steering wheel rim as well as the handbrake and gear stick feature black stitching. Stylish red accents appear on the seat covers and the horizontal dashboard trim, on the centre console and on the bold door handles. Carbon-style elements accentuate the armrests of the front doors and the lower part of the instrument panel.

Sporty ŠKODA lifestyle models have carried the MONTE CARLO designation since 2011. Their black body elements, sporty interior design and extended standard equipment recall ŠKODA’s successes at the legendary Monte Carlo Rally. ŠKODA introduced this equipment variant eleven years ago for the second-generation FABIA. Later, a MONTE CARLO version would also be produced for its successor as well as the CITIGO, the YETI and the RAPID SPACEBACK. ŠKODA currently offers the SCALA MONTE CARLO and the KAMIQ MONTE CARLO and will soon be expanding the line-up to include the new fourth-generation FABIA.

THE NEW ŠKODA ENYAQ COUPÉ iV IS HERE

Following on from the SUV ENYAQ iV, ŠKODA is now offering another electric vehicle based on the all-electric MEB platform. The new ENYAQ COUPÉ iV is a sleeker and more dynamic alternative to the original version and will be made alongside it on the production line in the Mladá Boleslav factory. In this respect, both versions of the ENYAQ SUV are unique, as they are currently the only models based on the MEB platform being produced outside Germany.

 

 

“Following the successful launch of the ENYAQ iV, the new ENYAQ COUPÉ iV brings even more emotion, sportiness and elegance to the ŠKODA iV family. With this version, ŠKODA designers and engineers have succeeded in combining high functionality with emotive looks,” says Thomas Schäfer, the CEO of ŠKODA, when introducing the new model.

Fabia History

Since its launch in 1999, the ŠKODA FABIA has been one of the bestselling vehicles in its class. Even with the first generation, which was also presented as an estate in 2000, 1.79 million units were produced in approximately eight years, while the second generation unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in 2007 found a total of 1,704,000 buyers. The third generation, presented in 2014, continued the success story and, in 2019, was the second most delivered ŠKODA model after the OCTAVIA. Overall, more than 4.5 million FABIAs were produced to date – a figure that is only surpassed by the OCTAVIA.

As Days Get Shorter, Check Your Car Lights And Wipers

As Days Get Shorter, Check your Car Lights And Wipers.

Your wipers keep excessive water, snow and dirt from building up on the windscreen, maintaining clear visibility.

Many factors can accelerate the replacement interval of wipers, including operating conditions (winter conditions are tough on wiper blades), frequency of use, material and type of wipers and believe it or not sunny weather.

Lights are normal wear items that require periodic inspection and replacement. Your lights provide night time visibility; signals and alerts for other drivers; and supplies light for viewing instruments and the vehicle’s interior. In addition to replacing dimming, rapidly blinking and non-functioning lights, the following tips can help keep you safe:

If there is any doubt on whether or not your headlights should be on, turn them on. Lights not only help you see better in early evening, they also make it easier for other drivers to see you.
Keep headlights, tail lights and Indicator lights clean. External dirt and muck can dim operational lights from being seen by others.
Make sure that your headlights are properly aligned. Misaligned headlights blind other drivers and reduce your ability to see the road.

Westridge Garage Limited is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd permissions as a Principal Firm allows Westridge Garage Limited to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders.
We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
