The intake manifold injection in gasoline engines initially had a mono-Motronic control unit and was a single-point system. It was later replaced by multi-point injection, in which each cylinder has its own injection nozzle. Few vehicles, especially those built for the Eastern European market, have a carburetor . The carburettor engines generated an output of 42 kW (57 hp) to 43 kW (58 hp).

The models with a gasoline engine are not E10 compatible.

Model variants

Available equipment lines were:

• LX
• LXi
• GLX
• GLX 1.9D
• GLXi
• LXi 1.6
• GLX 1.6
• GLXi 1.6
• GLXi 1.6 top
• Felicia 2000
• L&K

The “i” without the addition “1.6” indicates the more powerful version of the original 1.3-liter Škoda engine.

For a short time the equipment line X was available, which was not prepared for the installation of a radio. In 1995 and 1996, on the occasion of the 100th birthday of Laurin & Klement, the Felicia L&K was brought onto the market. As is common today, the L&K also had full equipment in the Felicia (including leather seats with heated seats, electric windows (some also in the rear), a pop-out roof and many other pleasant extras). The L&K was only available with the 50 kW 1.3 liter Škoda aluminum engine and in the color “indigo blue”.

Pick up

A pick-up version of the Felicia was also offered from mid-1995. In Germany, pickups were delivered with an open loading area or a fixed roof structure. The pick-up was only available with a driver airbag, the facelift of the Felicia was not taken over.

Felicia Fun

A variant of the pick-up version is the Felicia Fun with a special color concept , which appeared in mid-1997 . The paintwork, the front bar and the leather interior are dominated by a striking shade of yellow. This also applies to the steering wheel, the instrument cluster, the gearshift lever and the 13-inch aluminum rims. The B-pillar and the headrests are factory-fitted with applications of a stylized frog prince from the Felicia Fun logo. With the Felicia Fun, the cabin rear wall can be folded as standard, creating a second row of seats under the open sky. Canopies and hardtops were offered as accessories so that passengers can be transported on the folding rear bench or objects on the loading area protected from the weather. The Felicia Fun was offered with the 1.6 i engine and only 4,016 were built.

Vanplus

The Combi was also available in some markets as a delivery van with a high roof without rear side windows under the name Vanplus .
