Skoda has shown its upcoming Kamiq, a new SUV that's solely for its biggest market, China, at the Beijing motor show.
The Kamiq, which is being revealed ahead of a second new SUV, the Kodiaq GT coupé, will make a four-strong SUV line-up for Skoda in China (alongside the existing Kodiaq and Karoq) as the Czech car maker aims to double its sales to 600,000 in that market by 2020. Skoda boss Bernhard Maier said the two new models show the company is “very serious about doubling business in China”.
Skoda readies 19-model product drive in next two years
Maier reiterated that he "would love to" bring the Kodiaq GT to Europe in the future, but production capacity means it is not yet possible.
The Kamiq, which was first codenamed Model Q, will sit below the Karoq and is described as a "crossover". It will rival models such as the Hyundai ix25, Citroën C3-XR and Nissan Kicks in China.

Just Google it
It's not much to look at ( it's basically a less attractive, taller Rapid ), but if you Google Skoda Kamiq you'll be able to see pretty decent pictures with no camo.

The new Yeti?
So is the Kamiq the reskinned version of the Yeti? As they are both going to be on the same PQ35 platform.

What is it with car designers...
I seem to remember reading, not so long back, that car companies were moving away from the Russian doll approach but judged by the look of most of the recent new models, it seems not.
There was a time when I looked forward to the launch of a new model - being genuinely excited at the prospect of seeing a new design for the first time. Now the sense of excitement ranks right up there with the prospect of clipping my own toe-nails.
I know designs are inhibited by the requirements of aerodynamics, packaging, pedestrian safety, corporate branding etc but if Peugeot can come up with models that do actually look a bit different, how exactly do the designers at Skoda/Seat/Audi/VW, Mercedes, BMW, Land Rover etc fill their days??
...and, on a similar subject, who comes up with these daft names - all based on variations of one letter of the alfabet? What's next - the Skoda Kaaq??

It must be a desperately dull
It must be a desperately dull job now being a car stylist, producing slightly larger and smaller SUV variations, that all basically look the same.
