NEW Skoda Fabia review – do you REALLY need an electric car? | What Car?

What Car?

In this new Skoda Fabia review we explain why this petrol-powered small car is still an absolutely fantastic choice, even compared to rival fully electric cars. Watch to find out the 10 things you need to know about the Fabia(..)

P.S.Unfortunately, electric car manufacturers do not offer anything attractive enough to replace Škoda Fabia and other cars of this class in performance and price terms...

Tatra 603A, 1962. A prototype for a new generation of the large, rear engined, Czech luxury car. There was also a proposal for a long-roof wagon version that could be adapted as an ambulance. The project was abandoned and the 603 (which had been introduced in 1956) was given a facelift instead. More recently the prototype was restored by a Tatra enthusiast (video here). As with all Tatra saloons it was powered by a rear mounted, air-cooled V8 engine

First Look: The Praga Bohema

Praga has revealed its road legal hypercar in pre-production prototype form: a high-performance, low-volume car designed around 3 core principles – lightweight, carbon, petrol.

The new Praga Bohema is a sub-1,000kg, mid-engined 2-seater that, in the right hands, is capable of extreme high performance on track targeting GT3 race car lap times on its semi-slick Pirellis. Yet it is also comfortable and practical for head-turning road trips.

With its carbon fibre monocoque and race-oriented fully adjustable suspension, it is extremely light, targeting just 982 kgs (wet without fuel), while its powerful Nissan GT-R-derived six-cylinder twin-turbo engine ensures reliability, ease of servicing and the potential for further performance tuning. Whilst the Bohema’s race-derived semi-automatic transmission will support a unique on-road experience with track-focused performance.

The Praga Bohema’s PL38DETT is based on Nissan’s famed 3.8-litre, twin-turbo V6 engine used in all its GT-R models since 2007. Initially drawing on Nissan’s experience at Le Mans, it is constructed around an aluminium alloy cylinder block, and there are double overhead camshafts per cylinder bank, with a continuously variable valve timing system on the inlet valves.

Uniquely, Nissan supplies brand new GT-R engines to Praga for the Bohema. Engine development and servicing requirements then sees Praga working with the UK’s renowned Litchfield Engineering; another long-time friend of the Praga brand. Litchfield has more than two decades of tuning experience and is known as the global authority on GT-R engines. Litchfield strips the new engines and converts them to dry sump, which reduces the overall height of the unit by 140 mm. This allows the engine to sit lower in the Bohema and prevents the risks of oil surge under high-speed cornering loads.

Litchfield also makes a number of modifications for increased reliability and power, including swapping to new twin turbos. In this base-Litchfield specification, Praga is targeting the Bohema production car to deliver up to 700 bhp at 6,800 rpm and 725 Nm of torque from 3,000 to 6,000 rpm, but Litchfield is known for building 1000 bhp-plus engines from the GT-R unit.

Praga has a long-standing partnership with Kresta Racing, the Czech Republic’s most highly respected rally team, where its spotless assembly facility will hand-build each Bohema, beginning in the first half of 2023. The company is known for its high standards of car preparation and assembly and was founded by Czech rally legend Roman Kresta. His historic race victories include the Czech national rally championship on five occasions, whilst also spending a decade in the World Rally Championship, driving for the official Ford and Skoda WRC teams.

The USSR made very few truly special products. Tatra was one of the glorious exceptions. But then again, it’s roots ran deep in the pre-communist Czech soil.

Praga Bohema, 2022. A Nissan GT-R powered hypercar from the Czech Republic that will be built in a limited edition of 89 cars to celebrate Praga's 89th anniversary since their victory at the 1933 1000 Miles of Czechoslovakia. The Nissan VR38DETT V6 has been modified by British firm Litchfield Engineering to produce 690hp. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed Hewland sequential manual transmission. The Bohema is heavily oriented towards track performance but is road legal and will sell for $1.3 million.
