Skoda Yeti Heading For Production

Skoda's Yeti concept, which has been showed a few years ago, is heading for production. It will be introduced either at the London show or the next Geneva show.

With the new Yeti, Skoda will compete with small crossovers like Fiat Sedici, Suzuki SX4 and the forthcoming Toyota Urban Cruiser.

Detroit 2008: Toyota Venza Crossover

Toyota has just unveiled today at Detroit the Venza crossover sedan. The Nissan Murano and Ford Edge rival fills the void left when the Highlander grew a third row and got bigger.

The 5-passenger Venza powered by either a 268-horsepower V6 or a 2.7L four-cylinder. Both engines are connected to a six-speed automatic with sequential shift. The design of the Venza communicates Toyota's current styling themes while being Edgelike. The Venza has an upscale, airy cockpit.

Storage is typical for vehicles in this class, and like its main competitors, it offers a panoramic glass roof.
