Or you go to the side to go. Skoda’s rallykanon is ready.

On the Essen Motor Show was the rallykanon as a concept is presented, meanwhile the brutal Czech implemented in a final version. And kneiters, what is it delicious thick. The Fabia R5 approved by the FIA, and should be the Fabia Super 2000 are going to follow in the international rally competitions.

What is immediately striking is the widening of the vehicle body, whereby the angular design is held. On the back is a big spoiler fitted, with at the bottom a subtle uitlaatpijpje in the middle. On the roof, Skoda a hood scoop, lucas mounted, and if we look closely, we see that the side mirrors in a smaller size are carried out. Awesome.

Under the hood is a 1.6-liter four-cylinder with turbo, at least 265 hp supplies. This brings the company’s 1,230 kg (minimum weight according the regulations) weighing Fabia R5 at a specific power output of 219 hp per ton. Shifting is by means of a sequential ‘container, that the peekaa’s on all four wheels. The engineers at Skoda have him equipped with McPherson struts. Later this year comes in action.
