I know this subject has been discussed in the past, but those wanting a more or less full size SUV will have to wait until 2016.

The AE rendering smacks of the VW touareg. Its gotta be called Sasquatch, right?

Autocar claims it's MQB based so more likely based on the Tiguan replacement. The Touareg is surely more a Discovery / Grand Cherokee class car.

[Coops]

Been rumoured for a long time - "Snowman" has been banded about as a name.

 

Will likely become the top of the range displacing the Superb - although the Superb will still be manufactured.

AutoExpress's favorite statement:

 

 

Our exclusive image shows how the car could look

 

In other words, here's a different car we photoshopped the new "one style fits all" front end onto.

I wonder if Skoda would do an uber diesel version of this, similar to the v10 diesel Toureg, that would be a bit of fun!

They won't be allowed to by VAG.

Onto a Touareg in this case, if I'm not mistaken.

"Our exclusive image"

 

Well it would be 'exclusive', wouldn't it, since (i) they fabricated it, and (ii) no-one else would touch any of their content with a bargepole!

I suppose it would make sense to base it on a Touareg or Tiguan and there is only so much you can do style wise with a 7 seat 4x4.

It's a Touareg with a Skoda front. Just like the Jag that looks like a Cayanne: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/jaguar/66700/jaguar-c-x17-4x4-2014-review?utm_source=taboola-internal

 

Don't forget the extended Yeti with extra seats as another Skoda 7 seat option.

Another photochop of it, looks more like a ******ised Tiguan in this one

TopGear says the largest MQB vehicle will be Discovery sized with 3 rows of seats, and the smallest will be superminis.  Possible on that basis that there will be a full size 4x4/crossover.

I thought the Yeti was based on the Tiguan?  It (Yeti) manages to be smaller outside - though having been in both, they feel much of a size inside.

Next Yeti will be a tiguan with a Skoda front.

Also due 2016

I can't remember if it was the same website that showed an "exclusive image" of "what the new tesla might look like". It was just a photo of a model s! Use some imagination or don't bother!
