About the Skoda Felicia
The Skoda Felicia was the first model developed following the Volkswagen Group's acquisition of the Czech brand, representing a significant leap in build quality and refinement over the preceding Favorit. While it retained the Favorit's basic chassis and 1.3-litre OHV engine, the Felicia introduced modern styling and VW-sourced safety features like ABS and airbags. The 1.3 LXi trim featured multi-point fuel injection (MPI), providing a modest but dependable 68 hp. It earned a reputation for exceptional reliability and value, famously topping the J.D. Power customer satisfaction surveys in the late 1990s.
