The Skoda Fabia could be axed due to the upcoming Euro 7 emissions laws, according to brand CEO Klaus Zellmer.
A price of around £20,000, or more, would be expected, he said, asking:"Is that still a feasible proposal for consumers? I don’t think so.”, with which the Fabia shares its underpinnings, also faces the axe due to Euro 7. Engineering it to comply could add as much as €5000 to its price, VW brand boss Thomas Schäfer said last November.
They would require the fitting, as standard, of new electrically heated e-catalysts – to reduce emissions on start-up – as well as on-board diagnostic tech which will live-monitor key pollutants, illuminating the engine-management light if emissions go out of limits.The total extra cost on a light van or car will be €304 per vehicle, the commission claims; “This is a reform that is affordable.”
