The Škoda Yeti (Typ 5L) is a five-door five-seater mini SUV model built by the Czech car manufacturer Škoda Auto. It was introduced at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show in March, as the division's first entry into the popular SUV market. Announcement was made in late 2010 that Škoda Yeti will be built in China by Shanghai-VW in 2013. According to the European Car of the Year website, the Yeti was placed fourth in the 2010 award. In June 2011 Skoda built the 100,000th Yeti. Concept cars were shown prior to the launch of the production vehicle.In most of the EU, the Yeti is available with three different trim levels: Experience, Ambition and Track (or Active in some markets). However in the UK it is available in four trim levels, E, S, SE and Elegance. In India, it is available in Elegance and Ambiente trims. Its luggage capacity, aided by the 'VarioFlex' rear seats, ranges from 405 litres (14.3 cu ft), up to 1,760 litres (62.2 cu ft) when the rear seats are removed.
