Fabia Monte Carlo: Racing heritage
The birth of the Monte Carlo models
In 1936, Škoda first caused a sensation at the Monte Carlo Rally, which had been taking place since 1911. Zdeněk Pohl / Jaroslav Hausman drove the Škoda Popular to a second-place finish in the 1,500-cc category and Škoda subsequently launched a sporty road version of this model – thus was born the Monte Carlo model family.
