More often than not, special edition models come with a price hike, but that’s not the case with Skoda’s new Yeti Urban that features up to £2,450 worth of extra equipment at no extra cost over the SE trim it is based on.
Production of the new model is limited to 750 units exclusively for the UK with sales to start in April.
The Yeti Urban rides on 17-inch black-and-chrome ‘Matterhorn’ alloys and sports wheel arch extensions, chrome side strips, silver door mirror caps, silver roof rails and roof stripes. Buyers can choose from four different exterior colors at no extra charge including Black Magic pearl effect, Candy White, Brilliant Silver metallic and Steel Grey metallic.
Inside, customers have the choice of red or black sports seats and sunset glass in the rear, while the Urban is the first model to be sold in the UK with DAB digital radio offered as standard.
Additional amenities above the SE trim include the Amundsen+ satellite navigation, Bluetooth connectivity and a multi-function steering wheel to control the audio system and telephone.
The Yeti Urban is available exclusively in two-wheel-drive with manual transmission, and a choice of two engines, a 104hp (105PS) 1.2-liter TSI petrol that returns 44.1mpg UK combined with CO2 emissions of 149g/km, and a 108hp (110PS) 2.0-liter TDI that returns 52.3mpg UK combined and CO2 emissions of 140g/km.
Pricing is set at £16,900 OTR for the petrol model and £18,330 OTR for the diesel models.
