Looks quite good in white.
Did anyone attend this at the end of the day? How is it we are seeing no reports on this preview?

They are saying Yeti is famous specially in Europe, but I did not see a single Yeti in Germany's road.

Even I am surprised to see that claim. Yeti is a new vehicle which has'nt been around for long enough to become popular.

doesn't look appealing at all. IMHO, Its nowhere in league of any SUV being sold in India.

aargee · 27th May 2010, 12:10

Reminds me of Ford Fusion's category & would've been better without those roof railing; oOtherwise, looks are OK to me. But again the terror of getting it serviced at Skoda A.S.S is a nightmare.

They are very much active over Facebook, where-in they actively post current location of Sokda Yeti.

Latest update !!

Doesn't look appealing.

The rear quarter sucks.

@ thrope

Agree there. Sad looks its got.

designersf · 27th May 2010, 13:52

I feel it looks good for its class. It is not a full on SUV like the Fortuner or Endeavour. it is an interesting alternative to a car with some good off-road talent.

The only thing that would prevent me from buying one is Skoda's Aftersales.

The Yeti is already on the Display in some Skoda dealerships in NCR, BHPians from Gurgaon can check out the car at the new Skoda dealership at MG Road Gurgaon.

Seems to be way too over priced at an ex-showroom Delhi price of Rs 15.4 lakh for the Ambiente variant, and Rs 16.62 lakh for the fully loaded Elegance variant.
