ŠKODA, a Czech company of the Volkswagen Group, recently presented the concept for version 2025 of its pickup Felicia Fun.
Felicia Fun, previously forgotten by the audience, had a short lifespan after being launched in the 1990s with only 4,200 units produced.
At that time it was developed as a “lifestyle” car, with a special feature: a sliding partition behind the front seats, which, when it was pushed backwards, created space for a few rear seats.
Despite the seats, the vehicle left some space in the loading area, while a fabric roof protected the passengers in the open rear area.
All models had a rear spoiler and were painted in a bright yellow. If the buyers wanted, they were able to personalize the paintwork with green or orange details at certain points of the vehicle.
For 2025, ŠKODA published a concept that reinterpreted the Felicia Fun – designed by the French designer Julien Small Eeigneurthat gave the vehicle some modern elements, but retained the immediately recognizable form.
His goal for the Felicia Fun 2025 was to create a “casual beach atmosphere”. While modern vehicle fittings are dominated by screens, petite pasture kept the angular design that is reminiscent of the past.
In contrast to the original, the newly placed Felicia Fun is strictly a two-seater that gives up the 2+2 layout of its predecessor in favor of a larger load room.
Unfortunately, it is very unlikely that the Volkswagen Group will actually develop such a pickup. Nevertheless, it is a clever experiment that arouses nostalgia among fans of the old ŠKODA models.
