tejasmehta990 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Skoda is increasing their line-up just as Honda but CR-V has a long history and followers which Yeti is lacking . CR-V is an Internationally Acclaimed and successful product by Honda just as Toyota Corrola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durango Dude Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I think the Yeti is a very desirable vehicle. It will do well. It's feature laden and good to drive according to ACI. Though size may be small that may be a plus point and has some clever use of interior space. I know expensive small cars don't do that well in India (Jazz).

tejasmehta990 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I am not sure but is Yeti is priced at Rs.17 L ? ? ? ? Its too high. May be Skoda is the first to launch Small SUV but there M&M's small SUV and World car as well as New TATA Safari is expected soon. Even Tata is expected launch vehicle to fill the gap in between Xylo and Innova. If we go further down Premier Padmini have already launched Rio and from exterior they look much similar. But comparing Rio with Yeti is not acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durango Dude Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 @Tejas: I think you are right. Thats too high a price for such a dimunitive looking SUV, how ever capable it may be. Some how I took a liking to it when I read about it in the ACI and saw it on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asethi919 Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 17 on road may seem a little high but most probably that is what the case is going to be. I too find the car very appealing and hope that is succeeds. I still think it caters to a different demographic than the Endeavour, Fortuner or the new safari and mahindra's W201 will. Lets see.

tejasmehta990 Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 There is a group of customer who wants only exclusivity and something more from a vehicle will definitely look-up for YETI. Just as FABIA which set a standard for Premium Hatch Segment, YETI will set a Standard in India for mini capable SUVs. Skoda is using the same strategy as it did for Fabia. By quoting very high price for their vehicle in the initial stage will help them to create more brand value and also it may help to earn something more than the other companies.

shanthanreddyp Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Skoda Yeti prices announced. As per our own ACI site prices ex-showroom, Delhi Ambient - Rs 15.40 lakh Elegance - Rs 16.62 lakh But another site has put up prices of Maharashtra at lower price than Delhi. Prices ex-showroom, Maharashtra Ambient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asethi919 Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Even the ACI site first had the second set of pricing listed on its site. Changes a while ago. Anyways, I find the car to be great value at either of those prices. It undercuts the pricing to all of its competition by a huge gap. Captive, CRV, Outlander are priced much higher. I think Skoda has a winner at its hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carwar Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Prices are quite high in my opnion. Anything above 12 lakh is high for 4.2 m car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asethi919 Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 I dont understand why the small dimentions should be a negetive. The car still offers comfortable seating for 5. The car has off-roading ability while maintaining a luxurious and spacious cabin inside. With the compact dimentions it makes the car lighter(more efficient) and more maneuverable which is a huge positive in our increasingly crowded cities.

vr.46 Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 I think Skoda is cashing in on the imported SUV factor that the Fortuner and Santa Fe is riding on now. Regardless of the Yeti even being assembled here or directly imported a price less than 15 Lakhs would deem it to be cheaper in snob value in public eye when compared to the Fortuner atleast.. irrespective of how big the fortuner is. vr.462010-11-15 09:33:53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanthanreddyp Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Prices are quite high in my opnion. Anything above 12 lakh is high for 4.2 m car. Upon this, it's just a 5 seater. So I think, its going to eat into it's own Laura segment. shanthanreddyp2010-11-15 09:39:44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adreno Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Had a Test Drive of Yeti Yesterday. I must say that the car is very capable. Being compact, its so easy to maneuver in city. Being sturdy, good handler and stable its so secure to drive on highways. And to top it all, having good ride quality and decent ground clearance with standard rough road package, its so suited to our road conditions. Its quite a looker and stands apart from crowd with its unique attractive looks although it must not be having road presence of SUVs like Fortuner. I must say, Its the best all-rounder. Regarding price, I guess Yeti is priced slightly higher than expectations but not over-priced. But what I feel is it should come with features like Electric seats, Xenon Headlights and Sunroof at least in Elegance trim and DSG could be an option.
