Maximum robust, maximum safety


The demands being made on the active and passive safety of new cars continue to rise and the application of the most up-to-date safety elements in Škoda vehicles is a response to this trend.

The ABS system including MSR and Dual Rate vacuum-assist of brakes power is now standard on the Fabia and Fabia Combi. 


Another new feature in the Fabia range is the hill hold control, well known from the Octavia, Yeti and Superb ranges. 


The standard equipment includes airbags for driver and passenger, side airbags in the front, head airbags and unfastened driver safety belt signal.  

Another safety feature includes three-point safety belts (height-adjustable in front), head rests in the front and rear, space for attaching ISOFIX child seats on the rear seats, a fuel flow interruption system in the event of an accident, and other safety elements.


If you wish to place the child seat on the front passenger seat, you can do so by deactivating the passenger airbag with a key.

Head airbags

After activation the head airbag creates a wall along the entire side section of the interior. They thus protect passengers in front and in the rear against serious injury.

Headlights

The projector halogen headlights have undergone technical changes and changes in design. For full beam there is now an independent reflector on the internal side of the headlight, while dipped beam is provided by a projector module. The optically active surface of the headlights has been increased improving road illumination.

In the event of an accident

In the event of an accident a warning light comes on automatically, the internal lights come on and the central locking system is released. In order to reduce the risk of fire the fuel pump switches off and seals the supply of fuel from the fuel tank.

Protection of pedestrians

Fabia Combi vehicles respect EU directives on the protection of pedestrians. The risk of injury in the event of a collision is significantly lower thanks to the distance of he bonnet from fixed parts in the engine space, design modifications to the front bumper, and other energy absorbing parts.
