斯柯达近日宣布，明年在欧洲上市的新款SUV将有五座和七座版本。斯柯达目前正在开发新款SUV，标准版将采用五座布局，但斯柯达澳大利亚经理Michael Irmer宣布，还将推出一款七座布局车型，该车将采用5+2座椅布局，轴距将进一步增加，类似大众明年底推出的七座版途观。此外，这款4.6米长SUV还可选装全驱系统。虽然目前媒体猜测该车将被命名为Snowman和Polar，但车厂并未透露新车名称任何信息。斯柯达将于今年底发布该车，明年初开始在捷克Kvasiny工厂投产。另外，Irmer还宣布，斯柯达将于2017年推出新一代野帝，新车的车身尺寸将进一步增加。

 

Skoda confirms upcoming SUV will have both five- and seven-seat versions

Skoda has announced their upcoming SUV will be offered in both five- and seven-seat configurations once it goes on sale next year in Europe.

 

Volkswagen-owned Skoda is cooking up a new crossover which has been caught on camera so far only as a test mule, so we don't know anything about how it looks but it's not that hard to image if we analyze the company's most recent design language. It will be offered as standard with a five-seat layout, but Skoda Australia director Michael Irmer has announced there is going to be a more spacious seven-seat variant as well.

 

Without going into specifics, he hinted the seven-seater will be more than just a 5+2 derivative of the standard model as it will come with a longer wheelbase in the same vein as the seven-seater Volkswagen Tiguan due late 2016. This means there will be two different models rather than a single version offered with an optional third row.

 

Based on what we know so far, the Skoda SUV will be 4.6 meters long and is going to be offered with an optional all-wheel drive system. The model has been tentatively referred to as Snowman and Polar, but Skoda hasn't said a word about its name just yet. Sales of the model are programmed to kick off early 2016 at the Kvasiny factory in Czech Republic, following an official reveal late this year.
