Up a class - ŠKODA's new Fabia Monte Carlo Edition 150 hatchback (1212)

A considerable step forward in terms of technology and performance on the long-serving former generation Fabia, the new Monte Carlo Edition 150 (so named for its horsepower) hatchback is a bigger, quicker and smarter car that occupies an altogether more premium position.

"Perhaps no new model better embodies ŠKODA's journey in Australia than the new Fabia Monte Carlo," the brand's Director Michael Irmer said. "Far from being a budget sticker European as it was initially perceived, last year the average drive away price of a new ŠKODA was $52,000.

"The value of ŠKODA resides in providing the most metal, the very latest in technical sophistication and the best whole of life ownership proposition for the money. We have launched the new generation Fabia in its top line configuration because this is what our customers tell us they want from a ŠKODA.

"The Monte Carlo Edition 150 is packed with every item of equipment and technical refinement available, at a drive away price and the best whole of life affordability of any European brand."
