The character of the all-rounder vehicle is now even more versatile and defined.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/skoda-yeti.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/skoda-yeti.jpg\" alt=\"skoda-yeti\" width=\"500\" height=\"226\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/skoda-yeti.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/skoda-yeti-300x135.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The revamp of the \u0160KODA Yeti has preserved all of the good elements of the brand\u2019s new design philosophy, including a strong emphasis on horizontals, precise lines, clean edges, a new logo and a striking interplay of light and shadow. \u201cWe have fundamentally revamped the \u0160KODA Yeti after its market launch. The new design makes it more striking and emphasizes its impressive appearance,\u201d says Frank Welsch, \u0160KODA\u2019s board member for technical development. The developers have maintained the SUV\u2019s proven, unmistakable basic design and basic proportions: perpendicular surfaces, large wraparound windows, and its uncompromising shape.<\/p>\n<p>In revising the model, \u0160KODA head designer Jozef Kaba?\u2019s team has created two variations worldwide of the Yeti: the \u2018urban\u2019 \u0160KODA Yeti as a stylish crossover for the city and the \u0160KODA Yeti Outdoor, a compact SUV whose powerful off-road elements emphasise its suitability for off-roading. For all the differentiation in design, both variations of the Yeti preserve the car\u2019s extreme versatility and multi-functionality. The current two engines and front- and all-wheel drives are available for on the Yeti.<\/p>\n<p>The \u0160KODA Yeti will have completely new front and rear ends with LED rear lights, new radiator grilles, new bumpers, new front headlights and fog lights, a new bonnet and of course the new vehicle logo.<\/p>\n<p>The front end features strong horizontal lines, and the powerful upright radiator grille is enclosed by a chrome frame. Slight relief applications make the car\u2019s vertical grille ribs more distinctive. \u0160KODA\u2019s designers have completely reinterpreted the contours of the Yeti\u2019s lights.<\/p>\n<p>The main headlights are more striking and sharper thanks to their precisely cut edges, sharp facet cutting, fine transitions and general avoidance of curves. The headlights are wider than in previous versions. The perfectly executed quality of the crystalline design elements is reminiscent of Czech crystal. For the first time, the Yeti now features bixenon headlights with integrated LED daytime running lights.<\/p>\n<p>The front fog lights are a characteristic element of the revised Yeti \u2013 in a completely new interpretation of shape, size and position. The fog lights for are now rectangular and slightly larger than before. They are also set further underneath the newly designed bumper. This new design means that one characteristic of the new \u0160KODA design language becomes visible \u2013 the new Yeti&#8217;s front and fog lights form the shape of a clover leaf.<\/p>\n<p>The \u0160KODA logo is no longer integrated into the grille and is instead gently embossed in the centre (&#8216;nose&#8217;) of the bonnet. The logo is executed in chrome on a matte black background, surrounded by a fine chrome line. This premium position is the starting point for the precisely shaped lines of the new bonnet. There are also changes to the sides of the \u0160KODA Yeti. The angular shape of the Yeti silhouette remains basically unchanged; however, the wheel houses have a stronger shape than before. <\/p>\n<p>The new striking character of the \u0160KODA design is clearly visible in the new alloy wheels. The rims are well-defined, precise and visually appealing. The hubcap for the standard steel wheel of the basic Yeti &#8216;Active&#8217; has been redesigned. <\/p>\n<p>The motto of the completely redesigned rear of the \u0160KODA Yeti is clear and clean: the new logo in the middle of the new hatchback with the \u0160KODA name and model name in the new font design to the left and right of the logo. <\/p>\n<p>The new Yeti has two cubist triangular elements on the left and right sides of the hatchback that are so typical of \u0160KODA. There are also two new reflectors in the bumper; they are positioned flush with the lower edge of the tailgate. Of course there are also new taillights, including LEDs, in the brand\u2019s typical C design. A new two-stripe layout makes the &#8216;C&#8217; clearer and brighter. The overall redesign of the rear end makes the Yeti seem wider than before even though the vehicle\u2019s width remains unchanged at 1,793 millimetres. The \u0160KODA Yeti features a rear bumper with a clearer light reflecting surface in the vehicle\u2019s body colour and robust safety elements set off in black and silver.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Skoda has unveiled the redesigned Yeti compact SUV at the ongoing Auto Expo at Greater Noida.
