Skoda Australia said that the next-gen Skoda Yeti
will be “dramatically different” from the outgoing model.
It seems like the next-gen Skoda Yeti will go for a more
conventional design and that it would have a VW Tiguan body with Skoda front
and rear fascias. Automotive illustrator Shoeb Kalania has depicted the second
generation model with this speculation. Similarly, the interior should mimic
the flagship Skoda Kodiaq.
Expect the same three- and four-cylinder TSI petrol
and four-cylinder TDI diesel engines in 1.0- to 2.0-litre displacement to power
the redesigned SUV. 6-speed manual and 7-speed dual-clutch automatic should
form the transmission choices, with front-wheel drive as the standard
drivetrain layout. Higher-end models will have an all-wheel-drive system.
Skoda will unveil the next-gen Skoda Yeti in
mid-2017, meaning that its European launch should happen in the final quarter.
