Among the power units installed on this car, the only brainchild of the Skoda company is the 1289 cm³ petrol engine with an overhead valve mechanism (OHV), previously used to complete the Estelle and then Favorit models and improved by using the Bosch central injection system, or a completely new multi-position system. An additional advantage of engines equipped with a multi-position injection system is an improved ignition system without the use of a distributor. In this manual, in addition to the latest modifications listed, 1.3 l carburetor models are also considered.
In February 1996, the 1.6-liter model with an OHC engine manufactured by Volkswagen was first introduced, used to equip VW Polo models. The engine valve mechanism is equipped with hydraulic tappets that do not require adjustment. Fuel is supplied by a distributed injection system.
In May 1997, 1.9-liter diesel models with an OHC engine, also previously used in VW Polo cars, began to be produced. The engine features a modernized "chamber" preheating system developed by Volkswagen.
In July 1997, a minor modification of the car's appearance was made, the most noticeable moment of which was the installation of a chrome radiator grille, which became a kind of calling card of the new generation of the Felicia family.
The MacPherson strut type front suspension uses coil springs and telescopic shock absorbers. The main components of the rear suspension are trailing arms, a torsion bar, coil springs and telescopic shock absorbers.
