As per looks of the car are concerned, Skoda Fabia Scout appears quite different from standard edition of Skoda Fabia. Skoda India is definitely looking forward to create a difference with this all new terrain vehicle so company has utilized scratch and gravel-resistant cladding at the door undersides, the wheel arches are covered with the same material and there is cladding used around the rear of the car as well. However, while Skoda India has not altered the front nose and bumper of the new Skoda Fabia Scout, Global market is going to experience Skoda Fabia Scout with fully clad bumper and with sunk- in fog lamps. It is also expected to come fitted with Skoda’s existing engines i.e. 105bhp 1.6 petrol and the 1.2 three-cylinder petrol and diesel engines.
