Internal sources have established that the car will be developed completely by Skoda engineers, using the modular platform technology that underlines all passenger cars within VAG.
The newcomer will be a c-segment car and will sit between the Fabia supermini and Octavia small family car, although it could arrive as a sedan. The new model will give Skoda a more conventionally proportioned small family car in its range.
‘The Fabia is too large to be a traditional supermini, and the Octavia is too large to be a traditional small family car. The new car will bridge that gap and give our customers a car that sits perfectly in the segment.’
