Facelifted Fabia gets vRS treatment with 178bhp 1.4 TSI engine - plus estate version confirmed. <br /> <br />At VWs pre-Geneva party, dominated by powerful offerings from Bentley, Porsche and Lamborghini, Skoda proved that good things come in small packages, too. Looking stunning in a shade of alien green paint, the Czech brand threw the covers off its latest hot hatch, the Fabia vRS. <br /> <br />It sports the new facelift that makes its debut on the entire range at Geneva, and has a contrasting roof colour available in black, white or silver. The vRS certainly looked the part, even amongst more exotic metal. <br /> <br />Under the bonnet it uses the same 178bhp 1.4 TSI engine as the Polo GTI, and is hooked up to a seven-speed DSG gearbox as standard. Thats enough power for 0-60mph in 7.3 seconds and a top speed in the region of 135mph. <br /> <br />And in true Skoda style, it plans to undercut the competition, despite having the same hi-tech underpinnings. Whereas the Polo GTI is likely to start from £18,000, the Fabia will start from roughly £2,000 less, Auto Express has learned. <br /> <br />And thats not all, for those who want practicality and hot hatch thrills in equal measure, a vRS estate is to be offered for the first time, too. <br /> <br />Read more: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/motorshows/geneva-motor-show/248929/live_skoda_fabia_vrs_at_geneva_2010.html?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=Autoexpress%2BYoutube
