The fantastic new Fabia vRS will be
officially launched in the UK on Thursday 29 July 2010, and prices and
specification have been confirmed.
The new vRS is the fastest production
Fabia ever built, and builds on its predecessor’s reputation for high
performance, low running costs and remarkable value for money.
Available as a hatch and estate, the
vRS is powered by the fantastic 1.4 TSI 180bhp engine in tandem with a
7-speed DSG transmission, with ESP, HHC (Hill Hold Control) and XDS
(Electronic Differential System). Acceleration from 0-62mph takes just
7.3 secs, with a top speed of 139mph (140mph for the estate).
The new vRS features stylish 17-inch
‘Gigaro’ alloy wheels, LED daylight running lights, sunset glass and vRS
body kit giving it a very sporty appearance. Customers can also choose
an optional white or black roof with a range of body colours, including
the new Rallye Green, inspired by the Škoda Fabia S2000 rally car.
Inside, the vRS boasts figure-hugging
vRS sports seats, a three-spoke multi-function steering wheel with radio
controls and paddles for changing gear and MDI (Multi-Device Interface)
for use with iPods and other mp3 players.
Overall, the vRS offers fantastic value
for money, particularly when compared to the competition. Where else can
you find a 180bhp engine with DSG, paddles, LED lights and loads of
standard kit for £15,700 for the hatch and £16,495 for the estate
version? |
