Skoda, the Czech Republic automaker, today rolled out the updated Yeti in India at a starting price of Rs 18.99 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Launched in just one trim - Elegance - the car is available in both, 4x2 and 4x4, drive options.
Since it's just a cosmetic update, the new Yeti receives no mechanical updates. The changes given to the exteriors of the car are revised bumpers, LED tail-lamps, newly designed alloy wheels, bi-xenon head-lamps, new housing fo wing mirrors and different colour options for the roof. The cabin, however, remains largely unchanged, it gets a new steering-wheel that looks similar to that of the new Octavia's.
