    The new Fabia almost looks like it's from a class above, rather than a 'supermini'.

    Yeah, it's not far off a Golf. Most Skoda models tend to be slightly bigger than the class average.

    Any prices mentioned yet for the 3rd generation Fabia?

    What is your guesstimate for new car, gravel and asphalt, normal sparepart set for a season in a national series?

    I believe it’s the only car in it’s class that has gone above 4100mm long. I’ve seen a few in the metal but they didn’t strike me as that big. Perhaps if I saw one next to something like a Yaris it would!

    Meeke reckons he's done more miles testing the Fabia than he's ever done before in a year:

    BTW, do we have any info where PSA/Stellantis is planning to go on the Rally2 front? The C3 is nearing the end of its lifespan, but no news on the successor, or at least I didn't come across it.

    It's a tricky time to be planning on changing or creating a new Rally2 car. How long will it be until the switch to hybrid or full-electric comes and will a car be able to be retro-fitted with the new tech ?

    I am afraid that after new Skoda Fabia RS Rally2 we will see only one more new current Rally2 car and that will be all...

    Citroën made electric rallycross C3, which was retrofitted Rally2.
