Posted today on the official Skoda and Skoda UK facebook pages..

 

 

Ahead of its 2015 launch, we have a sneak peek of the new ŠKODA Fabia for you.

 

"We've incorporated elements of our latest concept, Vision C, into the new hatchback. Not only that but the new model will be 3cm lower, 9cm wider with a complete interior overhaul."

 

So it's going to be almost 4 inches wider than the outgoing Fabia, and over an inch lower. Sounds interesting.

Although it's just a drawing I like the creases near the sills on the sides, does look like that will go to the production model seeing the stick on panels concealing them on the mules. However the front looks very corporate which is a bit of a shame, would be nice to distinguish models instead of being generic.

 

Quite like, looking forward to the official unveil, would of thought later this year for 2015 launch

Saw this earlier for some reason it reminds me of the Astra GTC

What on earth is the point of that caricature?

 

It's also on the SUK web site;

That seems a bit odd.

 

"Look at this cool artists impression, by the way it won't actually look this good."

Isn't it illegal to have wheels/tyres that stand out beyond the wheel arch?

Yeah they'd have to be flared

It's a drawing! Course it won't look identical, but it's to get people excited.  

it will look like an old fiat stilo....

But in this instance it appears Skoda will over promise and under deliver (although I'm ready to eat my words when the new Fabia is revealed). When the excitement turns to disappointment isn't that bad business?

Yeah, I see where you're coming from, I don't think it'll be undelivered but I guess they are exaggerated to show the key features on the design. I guess we have to wait and see. 

This was the concept drawing of the Fabia II

 

Similarities can be drawn between this and the released version...
