Test drive crossover Skoda Vision S
All concept cars are arranged the same way — I know since four years ago participated in the creation of the show car Lada XRAY in Italy. Under the colourful shell, Skoda, too, is hidden a simple chassis with electric motor and batteries, suspension in the conventional sense, the interior is milled out of polymer. This exhibition layout, and the entire test drive — a couple of driveways in the factory hangar under the clicks of the camera.
Front panel without the usual center console for Skoda's is too avant — garde in the series, likely to go only virtual devices, like the Tiguan likewise, your PR service practiced and Malinowski XRAY. But, in contrast, Vision's will not be four years to languish in the dressing room, and this fall with minimal changes will take the stage — the serial crossover will likely be called Skoda Kodiak. Nevertheless, for Vision S for Skoda — the same XRAY. Spotlight of perestroika.
This is the new face of the brand, a new promising market segment, immodest fancy and heady ambitions. After all, developed in the end of last year long-term plan Strategy 2025 assumes that the Skoda is waiting for serious change.
First, the brand image should be more emotional, so first began to transform the design in favor of brighter, more expensive solutions. Family appearance will determine the tapered headlights and a "toothy" grille falshradiatornaya.
The design of the driver's display is richer and more colorful than the serial cars of Audi and Volkswagen secondly, Skoda is going to be brand-oriented crossovers. Therefore, in the near future there will be not one, but four new SUV and Vision S only the first of them.
This is not Yeti's second generation (in fact, on the approach of his successor), and the larger car — Skoda's first step into a class full Golf crossovers. And to step so widely that, as usual, just a little POPs for the upper boundary. Conceptual Vision S almost a foot longer than the Yeti, and their current 4700 mm in length promises to grow even the Mitsubishi Outlander.
The longer wheelbase (2790 mm vs 2578 from Yeti) gave the interior third row of seats, although free to be there only if seats in the second row are strongly shifted forward in the production version in their place, of course, is the sofa, although the slide will continue.
In the concept cabin as much as ten tablets! According to the plan, with the master screen which is located opposite the front passenger, you can control the picture of each of the monitors built into the headrests of the rear seats and watch through the cabin cameras with the riders in the back row. But it is clear that the production version will only have a couple of gadgets — and that for a fee.
• Modest seats in the third row is designed primarily for children
• Apple gadgets is rigidly fixed on the arms, but as planned, they are not included in the kit — just in each door station to charge Hybrid powertrain, which announced Skoda, too, is in the most remote plans. 1.4 TSI turbo (156 HP) and a 40-kilowatt electric motors inside the "robot" DSG rotate the front wheels and the rear axle results in a separate 85-kilowatt electric motor. The same installation has the Volkswagen Tiguan GTE. However, the first production hybrid with Skoda filling will be Superb, and this will happen only in 2019. A new crossover will be powered by a traditional gasoline turbo engine, diesel, all-wheel drive based on Haldex coupling and technically will be the twin brother of the Tiguan coming in version XL, which is 110 mm longer than the base.
And that it is Czech, apart from the name and place of production? Design Studio and design centre in mladá Boleslav long retained unusual for younger volkswagenaudi "daughter" autonomy: liftback Octavia, Superb seminomatous and "heel" Roomster was unparalleled by other brands of VW. Now, however, identity gives way to unification. And if Octavia is still "the best Golf than the Volkswagen", the Superb has lost its two-piece door, the Roomster is discontinued and will be replaced by a clone volkswagenesque Caddy and Yeti the second generation, if you believe the spy pictures, almost all repeat normal Tiguan.
In seven-seat configuration remains at the back of the trunk 460 liters, and when folded the rear seats of the series capacity will be about 630 liters But Skoda has become the leading developer and collector of small TSI turbo engine and DSG transmission for the other divisions.
It is more profitable. At the reporting press conference in mid-March, the Czech office has announced record results. Second time in a row taken the million mark last year sold 1 million 55 thousand of Skoda, the third of which went to China. Net profit of 708 million euros. Larger units of VW AG — Audi and Volkswagen itself — earn more but if we talk about the level of profitability, the ratio of profit and revenue, which in financial language is called the operating margin increased from Skoda to 10.8%. Relatively massive brands profitable only Porsche (16%), the result is the Audi in this year of 8.3%, VW AG in General, only 3.1% due to the effects of "disilicate".
Since 1991, when Skoda became part of Volkswagen, the production capacity has increased six times! And at three plants in the Czech Republic, which produced 600 thousand cars a million plus engines and transmissions a year, working only 25 thousand people. AVTOVAZ (unavoidable analogy!) staff almost twice as much, and profit in Togliatti not even dream of. As well as the production of such large and high-margin machines, which, no doubt, will be Skoda Vision S. But could Fret the same fate as Skoda?
Around this we see a SUV in Europe, but in addition, the company plans to Skoda is still kupeobrazny crossover SUV and class-B+, a notch below the Yeti. published
