"Skoda Yeti": characteristics, bundling, owner reviews

The new "Skoda Yeti" is a crossover, which has a beautiful design. The manufacturer has taken care of the introduction of a special off-road system, due to which the car is easier to enter into turns and easily passes off-road. The interior is equipped with comfortable enough seats. The "Yeti" model has an excellent maneuverability, perhaps it was a small size. The crossover is best purchased if the driver is to drive constantly over snow-covered, broken and other impassable places. For those who are more likely to travel around the city roads, SUV is more suitable.

Car with automatic transmission

This model "Skoda" has good technical characteristics due to the presence of electrical systems. Both manufacturers and buyers draw an analogy between the name of the car and the nickname of the snowman - the Yeti. There is still a similarity between them. The crossover is able to pass even the heaviest, snow-covered or stony roads, where cars have never traveled before. In order to understand all the abilities of the "beast" presented by the company Skoda, it was necessary to conduct special studies. If we compare the first and second generation machines, then we can say that the recent "Skoda Yeti", the test of which showed excellent results, is keeping pace with the times. The manufacturer took into account the nuance that in the world the least quantity of cars is sold with a manual transmission. It is worth noting that "Yeti" is much in demand with an automatic transmission. For without it the consumer is not pleased either with a powerful unit or with a full drive.

Recently, the demand for cars has increased among women. For them, the automatic transmission is also advantageous, since it is easier to learn how to drive it.

Characteristics

"Skoda Yeti", the configuration of which differ in technical characteristics and styling, has a ground clearance of 180 mm. However, along with this plus one can note one drawback - the levers of suspension are too close to the surface of the earth. This nuance causes some suspicions, because not all roads can be driven with this arrangement of details. But test drives show an excellent result - the road to the cave "Yeti" overcame more than successfully. The surface, which is a serpentine and hills, for this crossover - complete nonsense.

Ergonomics

Beautiful finish, made at the best level, soft gear change, smooth braking - this can boast "Skoda Yeti". The characteristics of the car are really impressive. Among minor inconveniences, one can note the radial digitization of the instrument panel, the creak of the seats when overcoming large unevennesses and the backlash of the handles from climate control. The machine perfectly withstands sharp drops and temperature increases overboard. If you move at a relatively low speed, then the switching between the first and second transmission will occur very smoothly, skidding, the passengers will not even notice it. A sharp braking or, conversely, an unexpected supply of fuel can not spoil the operation of the gearbox. Seats have dense upholstery, which perfectly "holds" the passenger and driver on sharp turns.

If you seriously consider technical tuning, then it will not be superfluous to emphasize that the best crossover is still the Skoda Yeti. The characteristics of this machine combine Czech freedom and German functionality.

Speed and movement

The car is quickly gaining speed and feels great on the track. There are no reactions to surface defects on the part of the control system. For the roads of the Russian Federation and for poor drivers, who constantly suffer from holes and holes, this crossover will do just fine. Another plus of the car can be called silent engines. "Skoda Yeti" is available in several trim levels and generations, each with its own unit. At speeds of up to 100 km / h, no noise effects, except for sounds from the street, are available. At a time of too rapid movement, passengers may feel a slight discomfort, but it will only occur if the wheel falls into a large pit.

There are some drawbacks when switching gears. Sometimes the car responds to this action with jerks. The reason for this, most likely, lies in the hydraulics, which lacks the required speed. Claims to the braking system and its dynamics there. Customer testimonials only indicate that the braking is smooth, and the emergency - works quickly. Technique of steering is beautiful, it is easy, it is easy to operate it at speed dialing with just one hand.

Fuel

"Skoda Yeti", a photo of which can be seen in the article, requires fuel at the limit of the norm. Surprisingly on this side, the crossover has shown itself to be rated 5+. It was spent 10 liters when driving on a city road and off-road. Which is quite a tolerable result, especially for a dimensional car, like this one. The cost of the car, according to experts, is slightly overstated, but with a more detailed consideration of this aspect it becomes clear that the Yeti has its money.

Reviews of car enthusiasts show that many assumed a change in the nature of the ride of the car because of the automatic transmission. But it remained economical, as it was before. "Yeti" can be imagined as a mischievous and emotional car, although the issues with noise isolation and perfectly balanced chassis does not arise.

First generation Skoda Yeti

The first generation of "Skoda Yeti", whose photo is slightly lower, immediately after the release was already ready to take all the tests from the side of the roads and drivers. Due to the small size, the crossover is perfectly manageable and allows you to perform various maneuvers.

The first thing you can notice is the radiator grille, which is surrounded by four beautiful headlights. The door from the trunk can please many motorists, since it opens upward. The car is characterized by increased comfort and spaciousness.

Second generation of Skoda Yeti

The second generation of "Skoda Yeti", whose characteristics are slightly different from the above version, appeared in September 2013. Among the latest models released this crossover completely reflects the brand of the Czech company. Modifications touched the installation of a rear-view camera, automatic parking. Before the release of this generation, Skoda did not use these systems in any of its models. Complete sets include diesel and gasoline units, whose volume slightly exceeds 1.2 liters.

Skoda Yeti Outdoor

The debut of the new version of "Skoda Yeti", the characteristics of which will be described below, took place three years ago - in 2013. If we compare the whole line of this brand, then we can say boldly - Outdoor is most adapted to off-road. Moreover, its output came at a time when the restyling version of the original car came out.

Styling "Yeti" received the same modifications as his "fellow" - a modified grille, brighter lights, a differently designed bumper and trunk, as well as a new logo. The ground clearance of the "Outdoor" and the original car is not different, but the body kit is still different.

In terms of technical equipment Outdoor received the same characteristics as the first car in the series. The complete sets differ in some additional options and types of engines. A model with a diesel and gasoline engine is provided. There are also mechanical and automatic transmissions.
