Concepts

The study of this car introduced in 2005, Skoda Auto at the Geneva Motor Show. The concept of this car was introduced in two variants – Yeti (Blue SUV) and the Yeti II (orange convertible with a combination of fixed and canvas roofs, presented at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show).

Even a week before the introduction of a new model appeared on the Internet photos taken during the tests.
