The coastal city, with its rich history and modern futuristic architecture, provided a fitting backdrop for presenting the Škoda Vision O and the limited anniversary-edition Fabia 130. Around 100 journalists from 14 countries did not miss the chance to be among the first behind the wheel of Škoda’s concept car.

At the end of the year, Škoda Auto organised an event for journalists in Valencia, Spain. This coastal city with a rich history is also known for its modern, futuristic architecture with bright colours, smooth surfaces and elegant curves. The Škoda Vision O electric estate concept and the limited-edition Fabia 130 share these same features. This car also has a connection to Valencia through motorsport, making it a fitting location for the presentation and test drives.
Journalists were able to test drive the Vision O concept on a short track in the port of Valencia, giving them a true feel for the future of the Škoda brand.
Around 100 journalists from 14 European countries travelled to Valencia at the end of November and beginning of December. They could take their first ride in the Vision O concept, which the carmaker had unveiled in September. The test drives took place in the port near the distinctive Veles e Vents building.

Participants had six Fabia 130 cars at their disposal.
Participants were able to thoroughly test the sporty Fabia 130 model (read more about it in the November 2025 issue of Škoda Mobil) in Valencia and the surrounding area. They also visited sections of the former circuit near the port, where Formula 1 World Championship races were held between 2008 and 2012. This provided ideal conditions for testing the fastest production Fabia built to date, with its power increased to 130 kW.
The cars were presented to journalists not only by colleagues from the GKP – Product Communication department but also by designers from the ED – Škoda Design department. Experts from the EP – Development Powertrain and Chassis Systems and VA – Aftersales departments focused particularly on the limited-edition Fabia 130 model, launched to mark the 130th anniversary of the carmaker’s founding.
