Skoda decided to celebrate 120 years of racing in an original style - with the fabulous upgrade variant of a Skoda rally car. Meet the Fabia Rally2 Evo Edition. This isn't just a buffed version or a restomod of the Fabia, this is a genuine upgraded variant of the Skoda rally car.

The Czech automaker celebrates a beautiful 120 years anniversary with the new Fabia Rally2 Evo Edition 120. The special edition is already available for orders, but only the first 12 will be the lucky ones to race it. Made by Skoda Motorsport and involves a majority of technical upgrades from 2021 Fabia Rally2 Evo, but has some additional equipment. 

It features a special livery, green magnesium wheels, extra LED lights, storage bags or nets for personal belongings, tools, spare parts, camel bags for drinking water, bottles for car liquids, belts, and holders. There's also, a special plaque that displays the production number and distinctive welcome screens for two different monitors. 

Other upgraded features include an improved intercooler, an optimized exhaust manifold, a new valve timing, a new setup for the electronic mapping, even a better gas exchange and mixture preparation in the combustion chamber. The upgraded variant of the Fabia Rally2 Evo Edition 120 has a top speed increased up to 126 mph. 

According to Michal Hrabanek, chief of Skoda Motorsport, this "Fabia Rally2 Evo Edition 120 is an all-inclusive version of the 2021 upgraded car." This car marks the further developed version of their championship-winning car. The fact that is produced in twelve limited units makes them a perfect jewel for a car collector.
