Without much hype, the Skoda India has launched the 4x2 variant of Skoda Yeti today. Apparently, we are the first one to get the wind of the new variant launch. Now, Skoda Yeti price is one of the most important factors to dwell upon. As expected, the price has been slashed a bit, Skoda Yeti 4x2 price is placed lower than its 4x4 variant at Rs 13,35,831(ex-showroom Vashi). But what we do have is the full details of the engine specifications for the 4x2 version. The same 2.0 L turbo diesel engine, but with a varied power output is affixed in the 4x2 variant.

The 2.0 L TDI common Rail engine generates a peak power of 81 KW and a peak torque of 250 Nm at 1500-2500 rpm. The 5-speed manual gearbox powers the front wheels with what is generated from the 2.0 L 1968 cc 4-cylinder engine. Exteriors wise, there is not a single variation from the present model, continuing with the same 4223 mm in length, 1793 mm in width, 1691 mm in height and 2578 mm is the Wheelbase measure. The 180 mm ground clearance is also just the same. What is different this time is the high turning radius of 10 m from 5.5 m due to the front wheel drive layout in the car. The storage capacity in the boot space is 416 l, while the fuel tank capacity is compromised slightly with 55 l against 60 l capacity on the 4x4 variant.

The new 4x2 variant is lighter than the 4x4 at 1960 kg gross weight resulting in a lower kerb weight of 1445 kg as compared to the 1543 kg in the 4x4 variant. Skoda Yeti 4x2 variant will have the same 7.0Jx16 alloy wheels with the tyres measuring 215/60 R16. The braking system, suspensions are just about the same as the 4x4 variant. Quite a few safety and comfort features are traded for placing a competitive price for Sloda Yeti 4x2. The side airbags, parking sensors, lumbar support, rain sensing wipers, the in-vogue touch screen audio system with LCD screen, audio controls on steering wheel, automatic climate control along with its multi-functional display are all missing in the new variant.
