The Skoda Fabia is powered by a good range of engines, ranging from three-cylinder 1.0-litre to four-cylinder 1.2-litre petrol engines.

The legroom in the rear seats of the Skoda Fabia is more than enough to fit tall passengers comfortably. 
The Skoda Fabia has a 330-litre boot capacity, when the rear seats are folded down, it frees up 1,150-litres.
