One of them is likely the second-gen Yeti while the other is possibly a smaller model. A couple of interesting slideshows have emerged from China showing Skoda’s plans to bolster its SUV portfolio with a strong four-model lineup. One of them has already been revealed: the seven-seat Kodiaq . It seems the model will eventually receive the “coupe” treatment, so expect the roofline to be more raked towards the rear end. That’ll eat into the rear headroom and will likely have a negative impact on the trunk’s capacity as well. It shouldn’t be much of an issue considering the Kodiaq is huge on the inside.
