Mladá Boleslav/New Delhi, 8 January 2020 -Solid, striking, muscular: Two design sketches give a first impression of the extroverted exterior of the new ŠKODA VISION IN.

The first design sketch shows the dynamic front of the visually compellingSUV concept study. In addition to a wide bonnet, a large ŠKODA grillewith solid ribs shapes the visual impression. The upper, very flat units of the split headlights progress directlyto the grille. Beneathis a robustly designed front apron with large side air intakes and a massive front spoiler made of aluminium. The second sketch illustratesa clearly structured, distinctive rear with sharply contoured, three-dimensional rear lights; an additional horizontal light strip connects the reflectors. Illuminated ŠKODA lettering is prominently positioned in the centre of the rear; an aluminium diffuser is integrated intothe rear apronunderneath.
