After years of concepts, prototypes and leaked information, Skoda's new compact SUV has been spied in Southern Spain. Previous mules were shortened Skoda Fabia wagons with a raised ride height.
Underneath the grey cover lies a red pre-production prototype. Through the camouflage, it is easy to make out the top radiator grille which should give the Yeti a car-like look. Large headlamps will take over the face, although we can expect the concepts front fog-lamps to be moulded by the headlamps. The side profile will take hints off the Yeti concepts and the Roomster MPV.
Mechanical components will come off the hot-selling Tiguan SUV. AWD and 4Motion will be optional on the Yeti, otherwise power will go to the front wheels.
A world premier for the production model was expected at last months London motorshow, however, expect to see the newcomer mid-2009.
