ABT Skoda Fabia - Exhaust, 2002 #1

The Skoda Fabia enjoys a strong following - however, at Abt Sportsline the compact car is given even more of a sporty appearance. As the world's leading customizer of brands of the Volkswagen Group, the Kempten-based enterprise developed a range of ideas for the small member of the VW family. The model which featured for the first time during the Automobil International fair in Leipzig in April 2001 was not only tuned optically with frontspoiler lip, rear wing and noble interior, but also with a power boost to 92 kW (125 hp).


With its standard 74 kW (100 hp) engine, the Skoda Fabia 1.9 TDI is extremely agile, nevertheless the Abt technicians give the compact Czech car even more sportiness. Thanks to Abt tuning, the power output of the turbo-diesel DI engine is boosted to 108 kW (125 hp).


Abt springs provide the diesel and petrol varieties of the Skoda Fabia with even better road handling. The springs lower the vehicle by around 35 to 40 millimetres. Abt are working on an individualised suspension, as well as various refinements to the body of the Skoda Fabia - for example the Abt front spoiler lip or a rear wing.


For the interior, a comprehensive package is available. A real eye-catcher is the polished silver gearshift knob with the matching Abt aluminium pedals for manual and automatic gearboxes, as well as floor mats sporting the distinctive Abt logo. The sporty look continues with Abt running boards.


For those interested in an even more luxurious interior, Abt supplies the finest leather accessories. The fine napa leather set comprises both front seats including head rests, the rear seats and the four inner door panels. Abt takes care of the assembly at the company headquarters.


Possibilities are endless with the choice of rims. Six different varieties in four sizes are available for customers to choose from. The one-piece, cast rims share one common feature: the unparalleled dynamic Abt look. Naturally, rims are available with tyres.


Abt offers steel-braided brake linings which deliver a constant and optimal braking point of pressure and require less pedal force. Abt Sportsline offers this complete package for the Skoda Fabia with a type approval. The advantages: The braking force is more sensitively controllable, the braking distance is shortened, and the system also ensures an optimal protection against stone impact and abrasion.

ABT Seat Leon - Engine, 2002 #1

Hardly any other car manufacturer experienced a face lift over the last years like Seat. Young, dynamic, fresh - such are the features typical for the Spanish member of the Volkswagen Group. And now Abt Sportsline presents the fiery Mediterranean featuring the very special Abt touch. This makes Abt the only customizer worldwide for all four marques of the Volkswagen Group. To begin with, the engineers from Kempten turned to the Leon. "We are enthusiastic about the result", summarises managing director, Hans-Jurgen Abt.


"Even in its standard version the Seat Leon is a dynamic, sporty vehicle and a real head-turner. That makes it a great challenge for us here at Abt to demonstrate what we mean by high quality customizing", says Hans-Jurgen Abt about his stylists' and engineers' philosophy when they worked on the Seat premiere. Engine, exhaust, bodywork, suspension, wheels, accessories, and interior - the Abt specialists' typical signature can be seen in all components of the agile 4WD.


Classical customizing begins with an increase in engine performance. For the Abt Leon the engine experts at Abt were not prepared to compromise. Instead of the standard 132 kW (180 hp) they gave the all-wheel-drive Leon a boost to 191 kW (260 hp), generated by an Abt turbo-charger. The exhaust manifold, the silencer, and the charge-air cooler display the logo of the world famous customizer from Bavaria. An optimized engine management system, finely adapted to the modified charge cycles, ensures impressive torque and acceleration.


To ensure that the horsepower is perfectly transmitted was Christian Abt's personal task. The racing professional from the German Touring Car Masters (DTM) himself fine-tuned the Leon with a height adjustable sport suspension. It can be lowered by up to 50 millimetres, with the rebound and response of the shock absorbers able to be adjusted to suit individual driving styles.


In setting up the Leon, racing driver Christian Abt looked into the perfect choice of tyres and rims. His choice: Wheels of the Z5 type, 8 x 18 inches, which recently premiered at the Frankfurt Motorshow (IAA). The Abt brakes kit with steel-braided brake linings, for reduced fading and an improved response of the brake pedal, round up the customizing of suspension and transmission. Abt also pays particularly attention to the interior and the body work details: For the Leon the specialists offer a front spoiler lip, a rear wing, aluminium pedals, an Abt gearshift lever knob, a set of footmats, and Abt leather fittings.
