First‑generation estate debut

Versatile body‑style lineup

While the Forman itself is a station wagon with five doors and five seats, the Favorit range between 1988 and 1995 also offered a 5‑door hatchback, a pick‑up truck, and a panel van, showcasing Škoda's flexible platform strategy.

Modest yet efficient powertrain

The Forman was equipped with a 1.3 L naturally aspirated engine delivering between 54 hp and 61 hp, featuring single‑point fuel injection. This modest output suited the car’s lightweight design and everyday practicality.
