Skoda announces plans for 2011

Skoda has announced their plans for model year 2011.








The plans include a new 1.4 TSI (90 kW) engine on the Yeti, as well as a new 2.0 TSI (147 kW) on the Superb.

Both will use the modern common rail technology that will take the place of the existing PD system (pump-jet).  Skoda will eventually provide a wider range of TSI engines (petrol).

The trims of both the 2011 Yeti and Superb will be updated, with improvements to selected radios and interior controls.

The Octavia will feature a new common rail engine (2.0 TDI CR DPF/103 kW) that will supplant the equally robust 2.0 TDI PD.  It will be available in both manual and automatic transmissions with front-wheel drive, as well as for manual transmissions with four-wheel drive.  This will be joined later by an automatic DSG transmission and four-wheel drive.

The Octavia Multifuel has been certified as meeting Euro 5 emission standards.  The Octavia range will also see the addition of new alloy wheel options.

The Skoda Superb and Superb Estate will be equipped with a 2.0 TSI 147 kW (petrol) with a six-speed automatic DSG transmission.
