Skoda Yeti 2015 Breakdown
The Yeti, as you’ll probably know if you’re in the market for one, is one of those SUV-style family hatchbacks on growth hormones the industry refers to as ‘Crossovers’.
Back in 2013, they came in two sizes, with the smaller ones derived from superminis and the bigger Qashqai-class models based on Focus-sized family hatchbacks.
The Yeti hails from the larger species but was priced and sized to be able to tempt buyers shopping in either category, which probably accounts for the phenomenal success of the original version we first saw in 2009.
Well over a quarter of a million Yetis were pounding global roads by the time this updated first generation model was launched in 2013.
This improved version though, had a much tougher sales task on its hands than its predecessor. By 2013, almost every mainstream maker offered or was developing a compact SUV and the result was a tightly-fought sector.
Skoda’s response was a Yeti with smarter looks, extra equipment, a more efficient optional 4×4 drivetrain and the division of the range into either standard or more SUV-orientated ‘Outdoor’ models.
The Yeti sold until 2017, after which it was replaced by the slightly larger Karoq model in 2018 and the slightly smaller Kamiq model in 2019.
What You Get
Satisfied customers have always liked this Yeti’s purposefully under-stated approach to Crossover aesthetics.
You’d recognise a degree of low-key SUV-ness here – but not too much, the exact extent of visual ruggedness these days governed by the species of Yeti you decide upon; in this revised first generation model line-up, there were two.
Those approaching Crossover ownership in an expeditionary frame of mind will prefer a variant from the Yeti Outdoor range, this car primarily differentiated from the standard model by ‘skid plate’-style aluminium trim panels at the front and rear.
Plus black plastic side rubbing strips and front and rear bumpers optimised for the sharper approach and departure angles that characterise off road use.
