FROM one Yeti comes two – for the first time ever, ŠKODA’s compact-SUV will be available in two variants – one for the town and one for off-road.

Both design variations of the Yeti feature a new front and rear, new alloy wheels, fresh interiors, the highest functionality and extended engine/gear combinations.

Both new models are to be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September and by the end of 2013 both will have been launched on the first markets.

“The ŠKODA Yeti is one of the most attractive compact SUVs on the market and has far exceeded our sales expectations since its launch four years ago,” said ŠKODA CEO Prof. Dr. h.c. Winfried Vahland.

He added: “With this all-new look and being offered for the first time in two variations, we are establishing new benchmarks. We plan to continue our outstanding development in this rapidly growing vehicle class. The Yeti is another cornerstone of the 2018 growth strategy and will strengthen our international position in the markets.”

A highlight is the first-time offer of two individual design ranges: ŠKODA’s Compact SUV is now available in a city look as well as an off-road look.

A significant difference is the front and rear elements, such as bumpers, under-ride guard, side mouldings and door sills are either in the body colour or, as with the ŠKODA Yeti outdoor version, remain in black plastic.
