Order books are now open for the facelifted Skoda Fabia, which gets added equipment and revised design.

The facelifted Fabia gets extra kit and an all-petrol engine line-up

Priced from £11,160 – compared to £10,5000 for the outgoing model – and available in hatch and estate variants, the upgraded range now brings an all-petrol line-up as previously revealed. Said to be on a par with diesels for fuel efficiency, the four 1.0-litre petrol units comprise the 59bhp and 74bhp MPI units currently in the line-up as well as the 94bhp and 108bhp TSI units introduced in last year’s facelift to replace the previous 1.2-litre units. These feature a petrol particulate filter plus an optional seven-speed DSG for the higher-power unit. CO2 and mpg figures are yet to be revealed.

Trim levels cover the five familiar designations – S, SE, SE L, Monte Carlo and Colour Edition – and increased standard kit, including LED daytime running lights across the range, while Front assist and a Multifunction trip computer are included on all models for the first time.

SE models gain front fog lights and 15-inch alloy wheels over the outgoing model, along with Radio Swing Plus and auto up/down function for the electric windows. Colour Edition models gain 16-inch alloy wheels in white, silver or black.

All Fabia SE L models now feature Amundsen satellite navigation, Infotainment online (for one year), lighting in the front centre console and 16-inch alloy wheels while the Fabia Monte Carlo now gets climate control air conditioning, LED rear lights, rear electric windows and new seat upholstery.

New options include LED headlights (£960), 18-inch alloys on the Monte Carlo Hatch (£600) and blind spot detection and rear traffic alert (£390).

Prices start from £11,160 for the entry-level 1.0 MPI S hatch model to £17,950 for the 1.0 TSI 110 DSG SE L estate.
