Introducing the Fabia vRS - Made of meaner stuff

Tuesday 18th May 2010

Take the multi-award-winning Škoda Fabia. Add a heap of darkness. What you’ve got is the new Fabia vRS. We’ve packed a vRS supercharger and turbo into the 1.4 TSI 180bhp engine. Giving you a hot hatch that generates a mean 180 bhp and goes from 0-62mph in just 7.3 seconds, making it the fastest and most powerful Fabia ever.

The mood continues behind the wheel with vRS sports seats and a leather 3-spoke sports steering wheel with paddles to control the 7-speed DSG gearbox. The mean look is completed with LED lights, rear diffuser and chrome exhaust. You can customise your vRS with 15 colour combinations, then choose the meanest alloys from four. We recommend the black.
