SkodaAuto India, displayed its much awaited SUV; Skoda Yeti for the first time in Hyderabad at the Hyderabad International Auto Show 2010. Mr.Yashwant Jhabakh, CEO Mahavir Motors, Mr. Ashutosh Dixit, Senior General Manager - Sales and Marketing, SkodaAuto India & Mr. Prasav Jhabakh, COO, Mahavir Motors were present at the occasion. The highly agile Yeti is compact, attractively styled with excellent handling characteristics and is bound to create a stir in this segment with the potential of having a cult following.
The 4×4 variants are also characterized by outstanding off-road capability and excellent traction. An impressive front end, with a ribbed grille and friendly looking headlamps confidently demonstrate Yeti’s bonding in the Skoda family. Sturdy flanks and distinct wings give Yeti its robust and solid look. These, coupled with superb emission values and low fuel consumption meet the needs of a socially acceptable SUV.
Skoda has met the demands for a cleanly styled body, a high seat position and versatile operating options with a design, which alongwith its sturdiness, exudes lightness. The Yeti meets the needs for environmental care, luggage space, and safety norms.
Yeti’s overall length allows drivers to fit into parking spaces that are far from generous, while its width guarantees that the doors can be opened wide in tight spots. And if the terrain becomes rough and more challenging, the slim stature of the Yeti always finds space to get through. The permanent, power-distributing four-wheel drive with 17 inch alloy wheels, hill hold and hill start assist with a ground clearance of 180 millimeters makes Yeti fun and dynamic to drive on and off the road. The Yeti will be a 2.0 litre 140 bhp, six speed manual transmission ride. The 1.2 TSI(petrol) will be on its way at the end of the year.
