Given our successful tradition and development in motor sports beyond the Czech Republic, the new Fabia R2 is just a logical result of our activities,” said Jan Hurt, Skoda manager for sales and marketing for the Central and Eastern European region.
Based on the series production Fabia, the R2 features significant changes to the engine, chassis, suspension and gearbox.
