Skoda is expanding its ScoutLine range with a new model based on the Fabia Combi. Scheduled to debut in early 2016, the Fabia Combi ScoutLine gains an off-road look thanks to the raised ground clearance, plastic body cladding and new alloy wheels.

The plastic elements on the front and rear bumpers are finished in structured matt-black, while the integrated underride protection elements are finished in reflex-silver.

The car also features matt-black plastic paneling for the door sills and wheel arches.

Other distinctive details include the mirror caps finished in reflex-silver, with the same color being used for the roof rails. The Fabia Combi ScoutLine also comes with fog lights as standard.

The model is available with a choice of 16-inch alloy wheels in “Rock” design or 17-inch alloy wheels in “Clubber” design. The Fabia Combi ScoutLine can be ordered with the entire range of colors available for the regular Fabia Combi. It can also be had with the entire engine lineup, including three petrol units (75PS, 90PS and 110PS) and three diesels (75PS, 90PS and 105PS).

The third-generation Skoda Fabia has been available in Europe since November 2014 as a hatchback and since January 2015 as an estate. This year Skoda has also launched Monte Carlo versions of the hatch and estate, with the Fabia Combi ScoutLine being the latest addition to the family.

Deliveries of the new Skoda Fabia in Europe rose more than 20 percent to 124,400 vehicles in the first nine months of this year compared to the same period last year.
