In depth

Strong point is the boot (380 l), large for the B-segment class. The 1.0 TSI delivers 95 hp and returns WLTP 5.3 l/100km; owners report 5.5 to 6.5 l/100km in practice (public forums, not measured by us).

About the Skoda Fabia 1.0 TSI (2024)

Independent spec and rating reference. No offers, no sales.

The fourth-generation Fabia sits on the MQB-A0 platform, which it shares with the Volkswagen Polo and Seat Ibiza. The boot of 380 litres is larger than on most B-segment rivals (manufacturer figure). The 1.0 TSI three- cylinder delivers 95 hp; a 110 hp version is available higher up the range. There is no hybrid drive in this generation, mild or full.

In practice

WLTP is 5.3 l/100km (manufacturer figure, not measured by us). Owners report 5.5 to 6.5 l/100km in mixed traffic (public forums, n approx 20, not measured by us); on the motorway the figure runs to the top of that range. The indicative list price rose from about 21,490 euro (reference date early 2024) to 22,990 euro now; this is a starting price, not an offer and not a forecast.

Points to note

The three-cylinder is audible under acceleration, more so than the four- cylinder rivals in this class (recurring owner point). The infotainment layout misses physical climate buttons on higher trims, a usability point flagged by several reviewers. Check the trim level and software version at the test drive at the official dealer.
