Skoda adds new SE Drive and SE L Drive models to its Yeti lineup in the U.K.

Since its launch in the U.K. in 2009 the Skoda Yeti sport utility vehicle has been a huge sales success, with over 13,600 being registered in the U.K. in 2016 alone - its best ever year. Revised in 2014 its new exterior design, upgraded interior and enhanced specification levels mean the Yeti continues to charm U.K. buyers with its on-road performance, family-orientated practicality and rugged styling.

Building on the already generous specification of the Yeti SE, SE Drive adds Amundsen satellite navigation with DAB radio, auto-dimming rear view mirror, heated windscreen, heated front seats and front parking sensors. SE Drive models are further distinguished by new seat upholstery and distinctive 17-inch Matterhorn alloy wheels. Based on the SE L trim, SE L Drive models benefit from all of the above plus leather upholstery, LED rear lights, part silver roof rails, 17-inch Origami alloy wheels and Bi-Xenon headlights.

The Yeti SE Drive and SE L Drive are available with three engines - two diesels and one petrol. The 1.2 TSI petrol engine generates 108bhp and buyers can choose from a six-speed manual or six-speed DSG automatic gearbox. The 2.0-litre TDI 108bhp comes with a manual gearbox and the option of four-wheel drive. Those choosing the more powerful 2.0-litre TDI 148bhp will benefit from four-wheel drive as standard.
