Yeti Skoda Yeti

These are apparently snapshots from the 2006 edition’s grand first showing in China. This Yeti design study was unveiled at the International Automobile Salon Skoda in Beijing this week.
I’m still waiting for my testimonial commercial endorsement opportunity and the courtesy vehicle to drive around Maine, but, in the meantime, the idea merely goes on the Christmas wish list.
“Skoda, Skoda, Skoda,” said the Yeti.
“Sooka, Sooka, Sooka,” said the Sasquatch.
“Myakka, Myakka, Myakka,” said the Skunk Ape.
“Hey, all of you be quiet; I’m trying to get some sleep,”
said the Almas.
It does look great but I have serious doubts I could fit into one.
Perhaps they could come out with a larger version, the Trunko.
Actually that looks more like a concept car rather than a production Yeti (which in fact is the name of one of Skoda’s model lines) Skoda from the Czech Republic is one of the bigger car makers in Europe with an extensive rally and racing program. But I have not heard of any plans of bringing the car to the States. As it would have to pass US pollution and crash regulations.
Does the hot model come with the car? I’m almost ashamed to say I like the look of this car.
Give bigfoot a 94 buick regal grill, the back half of a 91 isuzu amigo convertible truck, let him squeeze out the pontiac aztec’s karma and drop it on a junkyard ‘Mini’, now you’ve got a Yeti. Hope it smells better than you know who.
Hi folks!
Here by us in Hungary there are lots of Skodas but they are from the old-time models. This one looks nice, but how can a Yeti ever fit in such a little car? Oh,and have you heard about Lada 1500 this is also an old car type from Russia but with the right modifications it can turn into a beast.
YEAH!
Skoda is now owned by Volkswagen and holds a position in the European market comparable to what Hyundai or Kia does in the US.
There was Bigfoot, now Yeti. What next? Yarwen?
If this model sells well, the “Giganto” is next!
I wonder if, assuming they get it certified for the US, some cryptozoologists will buy it just because the name is irresistable.
Jeep should come out with a “Sasquatch Hunter” special edition of one of their vehicles.
