स्कोडा येति [2010-2014] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

Exterior I love the exterior of the Yeti. Yes it's quircky and a bit boxy, but that's what I like about it. It doesn't look like it's been designed solely by a computer! As I got a bright red one it is now known as 'Postman Pat's Van' by friends and family - which just makes me chuckle!

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) No complaints. I've had Skodas before and it's very similar. Unsurprisingly it's also pretty similar to my husband's Audi! Mine is a company car and has to do a lot of miles, for which it's very comfortable. But it's equally good off road around the yard and fields where I keep my horse.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox This is one of the key reasons I chose this car. I wanted something capable of towing a horse but also that wouldn't cost me an arm and a leg in Company Car Tax or running costs. The yeti fits the bill perfectly. It's towing capability is a lot more than many of the others in the crossover class. For some people the difference between towing 1600kg or 2000kg may be an irrelevance, but it's crucial if you're pulling a horse.

Economy wise I'm pleasantly surprised, as I'm not paying much more for my personal fuel account than I did with my previously (very) economical BMW 1 series. The relatively low list price (for a 4x4) makes it a good choice for comapny cars.

Ride Quality & Handling Good both on the motorway and around country lanes or even off road. I've used it a few times so far for towing (total weight ~ 1400kg) and been very impressed with the ride and stability.

Final Words Like the Octavias I've had before, the Yeti is a great car. If you still can't get over the Skoda name badge then it's your loss! If you want a crossover I don't think there's a better choice for performance and value for money.

Areas of improvement NA.

Styling, towing capacity, economyAnnoying unlocking system

Exterior

Its a very good car indeed. The styling grows on one. I love the compact size. Perfect for my particular needs. I guess i have evolved from the 'size'matters, perspective. Quality is any day preferable to Quantity!

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Very ergonomic, comfortable and packed with high quality features. Feels many notches above in comparison to the Fortuner, Captiva, X Trail, XUV, Endy and the like. Brilliant supportive seats. Lovely upholstery. Great quality throughout.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

brilliant responsive engine. Extremely powerful. Excellent Fuel economy around 15 to 16 on highways and consistent 12 to 14 in city. AC on always plus lousy bumper to bumper Bangalore traffic. Amazing really. One of the slickest shifting gearboxes I have ever experienced in my life. Better than any other manual transmission SUV I ve driven. 

Ride Quality & Handling

 Superb, to say the least. Feels planted at all speeds. Handles bumps and broken roads with consummate ease. I have driven it for about 6000 kms so far and believe me, every moment spent in this car has been a pleasure. The safety features are literally 'best in class'. 

Final Words

Simply Clever and Osessed with Quality as per Skoda's own words, about sums it up. Its the best car I ve owned so far. Indeed I will be hard pressed to find a replacement when it is time to upgrade! 

Areas of improvement  

 try and introduce the top spec SE Plus version with an autobox and optional sunroof. Also please provide the bluetooth phone option to us. Change the OEM tyres to something stronger to handle the Indian Roads which are mostly broken tracks in the cities and the countryside!

 

Fit, finish, safety, city usage, easy to handle, very high quality levels.Slightly small. Still expensive.

 

Exterior Great product from Skoda - excellent paint job, really cute to look at.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) A little cheap for something that is 20L on the road. Noise level is very low and the diesel roar is hardly audible with the windows closed. I would have liked a louder horn - to get the folks out of the way in crazy Bangalore traffic.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Small turbo lag, would have liked a V6 (Like the Suzuki Vitara).

 

Ride Quality & Handling Very unlike a typical SUV - this is a highly refined vehicle, more like a car. I think this is closer to the Xtrail. Toyota Fortuner is horrible in comparison.

 

Final Words Another winner from Skoda. My biggest concern is the poor quality of dealers. I don't know why Skoda does not choose better ones. Most of the ones I have encountered have no idea about customer service.

 

Areas of improvement Better ground clearance would be good for offroad use. But this car SHOULD NOT BE USE OFF ROAD!! Calling this an SUV is a misnomer.

 

Small and fuel efficientPoor ground clearance, does look a little dainty

 

Exterior Black looks superb and blends in with the B and C pillars. Attracts quite a bit of attention on road. Superb build quality all round. The size is a real bonus in Bangalore traffic. I've been able to park in tight spaces.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The front seats are best. Space management is clever for a car of this size. The dashboard and features are typical European - well thought out with high quality materials. The driver's seat gives a command view of the traffic and lends that feeling of control. The 6 airbags and all the safety features are re-assuring.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is very good. A minor irritant is the tendency to stall at low revs. All in all considering the weight of the car, a 160 HP engine would have been the icing on the cake. Performance is very good along with fuel economy. Very easy to drive and the gearing is a pleasure with short throws.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Build quality is awesome and translates into a sure-footed performance on road. Handling is pretty good though I have yet to test its stability at high speeds.

 

Final Words A quality package - looks unique and is a head turner particularly in black.

 

Areas of improvement The tendency to stall at low revs. I feel the floor colour could have been a lighter shade. The fact that the accelerator is attached to the floor is a minor irritant as I couldnt find rubber mats which can factor this in. A sunroof would have been the icing on the cake.

 

Black looks superb and blends in with the B and C pillars, driver friendlyTendency to stall at low revs. No sunroof. Stiff ride at times.

Exterior Exterior r good, looks musculine . cornering effect of fog lights are marvellous.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) plush interior, comparable to any topend cars. rear center seat is cramped due to rear A.C vent . really a problem. vanity mirrors r good. dimmning of inside rear view mirror and right side external mirror r really effective. but left side external mirror dimmning is not provided, Hill hold control is really good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very goo so far. milage is superb.

Ride Quality & Handling Good, no vibration, very smooth. really like it.

Final Words Very good overall crossover.

Areas of improvement They should have given bluetooth and navigation facility at such high price. they defatured their vehicle for indian market. i dont know why??? such as they have deleted left side back view mirror dimmning, rotation of this mirror towards ground while reversing the car etc etc. Rear A.C vent could have been shifted to the roof.

fuel economy, good front view, driver comfort.no bluetooth, navigation etc.

Fantastic expiration .good fuel economic of this category . very good car. Servicing and maintenances experience are very good .keep it up thanks

Exterior Ok, Fog lamps can be more better.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Space is Good, Features are not so Dynamic, Very Comfortable & Stable Car.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Mindblowing, No Sound, Smooth Gear Shifting

Ride Quality & Handling Gr8, Driven at a Speed of 180kmph with full stablity.

Final Words Value for money, Safe Drive with full comfort

Areas of improvement Appearance should be improved, Rear Seats should be developed for comfortable sitting for 3 persons. Overall Yeti is a Perfect Car as well as SUV both for Urban & Rural Places. But, the most problemetic thing is Service. Local Dealer is very bad, talking rough, & no support. 

I had purchased Elegance 4*4 & met with an accident on highway, Dealer made false by making normal Insurance after recieving amount & commitment of Add On. 

Now the insurance Company Bajaj is also not responding. So Beaware all Skoda Purchaser car is good but what would you do having condition like this, Just Spoiled Rs.20lacs.

Safety, Comfort, Fuel Efficiency, PowerBoxy exterior, Lack of USB Port, bluetooth Connectivity,

Exterior Excellent.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is dam good i am really impressed with the interirors but not happy with the space for the person seating in middle becoz of the ac vent i think there should be little change in design regarding this may be the ac vent should be on top , boot space is really huge its a copact suv so people looking for seating arrangement for 8 people or 20 people then pls donot buy this car buy a truck or may be fortuner :) the ground clearence is 185mm which is sufficient i feel as rest of the suv will be having little more ground clearence.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is good as I took a test drive and took it to really bumpy ride as its not difficult to find bad roads in india and it was good, I had no problem handling the car it was all nice. Cant say much fuel economy as I dont own the car hope its good as the company is really boasting abt it. so people who owns it can tell u better about the fuel economy.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality was very good and comortable.

Final Words I just want to know why this car is not selling much as expected and people who have purchased it also wants to sell it. i just want to know as I am very much planning to buy this car if there is any sincere problem with this car please let me know.

Areas of improvement The rear seat may be little improved so that 3 people in rear can seat properly. may be the ac vent should be switched to roof top so that little more space could me made or car clould be made little longer so that person seating in middle have little more leg space.

Everything is good driving comfort is top end, fuel economy is good, nice easy to handle,Middle seat is little congested because of the ac vent between which restricts the foot space.
