Fabia Estate Greenline II and Roomster Greenline II details revealed

Technological advances by Skoda have meant even cleaner and greener Greenline versions for both the Fabia Estate and Roomster.

Both models have been facelifted but on the inside, new technology has resulted in lower fuel consumption and fewer CO2 emissions.

This includes a new engine with common rail (high-pressure direct injection), stop-start technology, energy recuperation and gear recommendation (on a Maxi DOT display).

In addition, the GreenLine models feature a new three-cylinder turbocharged engine (1.2 TDI CR DPF/55 kW) resulting in staggeringly low fuel consumption figures.  The Fabia Estate Greenline II comes in at just 83.1mpg and CO2 emissions of 89g/km, and the Roomster Greenline II at 67.3mpg and 109g/km.

Other contributing factors towards the fuel efficiency improvements are a lowered and aerodynamically-covered chassis and low-rolling-resistance tyres.
