Detailed analysis of the Skoda Fabia 1.2 60 CV Active (2011-2012)
General description
The 2010 Skoda Fabia 1.2 60 CV Active is presented as a sensible and accessible option in the utility vehicle segment. With a price of 8,990 euros, this model seeks to win over those who value functionality and economy above sporty performance. It is a car designed for everyday use, for the city and for short journeys, where its small engine and compact size can shine.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the Fabia 1.2 60 CV, the sensations are of tranquility and efficiency. Don't expect dazzling acceleration, as its 16.5 seconds to reach 100 km/h from a standstill and its top speed of 155 km/h place it on a more relaxed plane. However, its electro-hydraulic power steering and its McPherson front suspension, along with the trailing arm rear, offer adequate ride comfort for the city and predictable stability. The dry single-disc clutch and 5-speed manual gearbox contribute to a smooth and controlled drive, ideal for those looking for an easy-to-handle car with a contained combined consumption of 5.5 l/100km.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the 2010 Skoda Fabia, in its 5-door version, is functional and without great aesthetic pretensions. Its clean lines and compact silhouette, with 4000 mm long, 1642 mm wide and 1498 mm high, make it practical for the city. The interior, although sober, is designed for habitability, offering 5 seats and a 300-liter trunk, a very respectable figure for its segment. The materials, although simple, are well assembled, conveying a sense of durability.
Technology and features
In the technological section, the 2010 Fabia 1.2 60 CV Active focuses on the essentials. Its 1198 cc gasoline engine, with 3 cylinders and 2 valves per cylinder, uses indirect injection and an aluminum block and cylinder head, which contributes to its lightness and efficiency. It complies with Euro 5 regulations and holds the DGT's C label, reflecting its commitment to the environment for the time. The electro-hydraulic power steering is a plus for comfort in urban driving. The ventilated front disc brakes and rear drum brakes ensure effective braking for its power.
Competition
In the competitive utility vehicle segment, the Skoda Fabia 1.2 60 CV Active faced rivals such as the Dacia Sandero, the Hyundai i20 or the Kia Rio, all of them seeking to offer a good balance between price and equipment. Its main asset was the Volkswagen group's reputation for robustness and reliability, at a more contained price. Other competitors such as the Renault Clio or the Peugeot 207 could offer a more striking design or more complete equipment, but often at a higher cost.
Conclusion
The 2010 Skoda Fabia 1.2 60 CV Active is an honest and unpretentious car. It is the perfect choice for those looking for an economical, reliable and practical vehicle for everyday use, especially in urban environments. Its low consumption, its habitability and its adjusted price make it a very attractive option for drivers who prioritize functionality and economy of use. It is a faithful companion that more than fulfills its purpose, without seeking to be the center of attention.
