Škoda Motorsport marks 125 years with special Rally2 package
Celebrating a milestone with significant upgrades to the Škoda Fabia RS Rally2
Škoda Motorsport is celebrating 125 years of racing heritage, a journey that began in 1901 with motorcycle competition and continues today with multiple victories in WRC2 and numerous national rally series. To mark this milestone, every Škoda Fabia RS Rally2 delivered from January 2026 onward will come equipped with a special anniversary package.

The Škoda Fabia RS Rally2 is an all-wheel-drive rally car developed for the Rally2 category of the FIA World Rally Championship, succeeding the highly successful Fabia Rally2 evo. It is powered by a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine producing around 289 PS, paired with a five-speed sequential gearbox, limited-slip differentials, and an optimized chassis and aerodynamic package.

The commemorative upgrades include lightweight and competition-focused components such as a rear polycarbonate window, gravel and asphalt crossmember covers, magnesium OZ Racing wheels in a unique finish, lightened engine wiring, an updated central panel, CV joint sleeves, and an anniversary welcome display.

Visual touches include “125 Years” decals, a dark chrome bonnet logo, an interior plaque, and a branded car cover, with buyers also receiving exclusive Škoda Motorsport merchandise. The celebrations will run throughout the year, beginning with a special 125th-anniversary livery debuting at Rallye Monte-Carlo.

Michal Hrabánek, Head of Škoda Motorsport, says: “2026 will be an extraordinary year for Škoda Motorsport: We are celebrating the 125th anniversary. To commemorate this significant milestone, we will be treating our valued customers to some special gifts. It is also our way of showing our deep respect for the dedication, loyalty, and trust of all our customer teams around the world”.
