Born rally exclusively for Skoda Fabia comes R2, which has a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine and 16v, in addition to the 180 hp with maximum torque of 19.79 Nm at 5,500 rpm. For front-wheel drive and features a series of changes that make it into a real competition. Magneti-Marelli electronic gearbox and five signed by Sadey relations.

In terms of performance because we know nothing Skoda jealously guards this data, but bridging the gap (gearbox with close ratio and other unique settings of the racing world) do not differ much from those of Skoda Fabia RS.

The 1.4 liter TSI engine also yields 180 hp, with maximum torque of 25.51 Nm between 2,000 and 4,500 rpm. The price of the street version is also much smaller than its "brother racing, an estimated 18,900 euros.
