The GTI meeting on the shores of Lake Worthersee has transformed into a huge party zone with numerous shows. Both Skoda and SEAT now present impressive show cars there, and we have details about the latest crazy creation. It's the Fabia Combi R5, adding salt and pepper to this family wagon.
As you all know, Skoda has quit the WRC and is now racing an R5-spec Fabia hatchback. The company's designers have reinterpreted that excellent racer as an estate model to create the ŠKODA Fabia R5 Combi show car.
It boasts the same white, green and black colors. The concept rides on 18-inch alloy wheels into the Worthersee show. Compared to the regular Fabia Combi, this concept also has wider air intakes, flared arches, imposing mudguards and many other motorsport-infused elements.
However, we mostly like looking at it from the back, where a single exhaust pipe is flanked by diffusers and a giant wing.
Can you imagine what the average 2015 Fabia Combi buyer feels while looking at this concept? He probably has to put up with a 90 horsepower engine, which on more than one occasion wasn't powerful enough for an overtaking maneuver.
Instead of a 1.2 TSI, this tarmac eater has a 1.6-liter turbo engine, all-wheel-drive, a sequential five-speed transmission and McPherson struts. That's what Ken Block would drive if he were a family man.
As 200,000 tuning and motorsport fans are expected during Worthersee 2K15, Skoda seems to have all the right cars. Besides this rally wagon, their apprentices have built them a pickup version of the new Fabia.
