Fabia IV
A very good car for daily driving and even for longer trips, provided better seats than the base version. Good handling, quietness, dynamics, and fuel economy. This car pleasantly surprised me. Currently at 1,000 km, I'll add an update after more mileage. I have the 1.0 115hp version, it differs slightly from the 1.0 110hp, including a different turbo, better throttle response, and the gearbox doesn't lag the engine at low revs. Suspension tuning, ergonomics, soundproofing - Skoda has refined it greatly.
Pros:
Good handling, Quiet interior, Dynamic performance, Fuel efficient, Good suspension tuning, Excellent ergonomics, Well-refined soundproofing
Cons:
Base version seats could be better

Cool car, bought in the Monte Carlo version. Everything looks nice, drives well, picks up speed nicely. Soundproofing is great. Only when you give it gas at higher revs do you hear the characteristic 3-cylinder engine. I honestly recommend it more than the 1.5 TSI because the latter turns off 2 cylinders during economical driving, which can lead to faster wear. And if you don't care about a specific gearbox, I recommend the manual because, in my opinion, the automatic is a bit sluggish compared to, for example, a Toyota or a Jaguar, but that's just my opinion.
Pros:
Good looking Monte Carlo version, Pleasant driving experience, Good acceleration, Excellent soundproofing, Characterful 3-cylinder engine sound at high revs
Cons:
1.5 TSI's cylinder deactivation may cause faster wear, Automatic gearbox is a bit sluggish compared to competitors

Automatic, Monte Carlo version, 115 HP. In my version, the interior plastic fit is flawless (some complain), true - they are hard, but it doesn't bother me at all, and where they should be soft, they are. Super front seats (different from the base version), very comfortable even on longer trips, they hold the torso excellently (170cm, approx. 70kg)! The trunk is flawless - very good access, sufficient capacity. Phone connection via cable and Bluetooth - works flawlessly.
Pros:
Flawless interior plastic fit, Excellent front seats (supportive, comfortable), Spacious and accessible trunk, Seamless phone connectivity (cable & Bluetooth)
Cons:
Hard interior plastics (though not an issue for the reviewer)

Fabia IV 1.0 116 HP DCT Monte Carlo in Orange Phenix is beautiful and reliable! The exterior and interior look great, the bucket seats are mega comfortable. The Virtual Cockpit and wireless multimedia connection are a big plus (previously in Kia Proceed GT, connection was via cable). Great to drive, a small, agile car, ideal for the city and longer trips. The DCT automatic works flawlessly, shifting gears smoothly. The only small downside is the reversing camera, which deceives regarding distance.
Pros:
Beautiful and reliable, Attractive exterior and interior, Very comfortable bucket seats, Virtual Cockpit and wireless multimedia, Great to drive, agile, Ideal for city and longer trips, Smooth DCT automatic transmission
Cons:
Reversing camera inaccurate distance
