Default Why Skoda is not launching the Fabia ??

The main reason is:

Skoda's parent company VW is planning to introduce its Golf and Polo models in India. And those would compete directly with Fabia.

I said this before...VW's premium cars are priced out of reach of most Indians due to the way our politicians tax the full-size cars.

So VW will leave the full-size models in India to Skoda (Octavia/Laura/Superb/Combi/Scout??etc) and themselves concentrate on the economy hatchbacks in India.
