Skoda is secretly planning to double its range of cars in three years. Today the Czech manufacturer has a four-strong range: Fabia supermini, Octavia family car, Superb saloon and roomy Roomster.
But by 2011 it’ll have a tiny Smart-like city car, a new small four-door, the Yeti junior off-roader and a seven-seater MPV.
CAR’s already revealed the bones of Skoda’s expansion plans (check our original Skoda scoop here), but now we’ve fleshed out more details and more accurate timings.
First to arrive is the new Yeti, in UK showrooms in autumn 2009. It lands at the 2009 Geneva motor show and will remain remarkably faithful to the concept car pictured above. It’s based on the hardware snaffled from the VW parts bin, with a mix of Polo and Golf component sets.
