Skoda has launched their greenest production model ever in the UK market today. It’s the Fabia Greenline II powered by a three-cylinder turbocharged 1.2 TDI CR engine with 75 hp, and featuring DPF common rail system and stop-start function,and energy recuperation. So it has an incredible average fuel consumption of 83.1 mpg (combined cycle) and CO2 emissions of only 89g/km.
The car also has a single 45 litre tank of fuel, which means, at least on paper, it should be able to cover a distance of 932 miles between the pumps. Other economy features of the car includes a gear recommendation system, which helps the driver make optimum use of the engine’s potential, a lowered and aerodynamically-covered chassis and low-rolling resistance tyre.
Pricing for this ultra-economical Skoda Fabia starts from £13,740.
