Skoda has received two awards for its Yeti compact 4x4 and Superb family saloon.

Top Gear magazine named the Yeti as its Family Car of the Year, while the Superb was voted Luxury Car of the Year in the awards selected by Top Gear's TV, online and magazine teams.

“The Yeti has been an instant hit with the Top Gear magazine office,” said Conor McNicholas.

“We love the styling, the handling, the quality, the space, the clever touches and yes, the name. If you’re looking for a family car it should be top of your list to check out, simple as that. The Yeti feels like part of the Top Gear family.”

“It’s in the ride, the refinement, the quality of the interior, the understated drama of the exterior – the Superb is all that, and in estate form it makes even more sense,” said the editor.

“For the well-healed or those of us that wish we were, the Superb Estate is a class act that really delivers. Don’t let the great price fool you!”

Škoda is delighted to add three prestigious WhatCar? price point wins to its ever growing trophy cabinet.

The Škoda Yeti, which has been met with critical acclaim since its introduction in September last year, was named 'Best buy crossover under £15,000' in 1.2 TSI S specification. This latest award is added to its Top Gear magazine 'Family Car of the Year' accolade and the Czech Motoring Journalists Club Car of the Year citation, as well as being shortlisted for European Car of the Year title.

Meanwhile the Škoda Octavia Estate 1.4 TSI was named 'Best buy estate under £16,000' for the third year running to add to its title of 'Best Family Car' in the equally prestigious J D Power Customer Satisfaction Survey.

And finally, the Superb continues to be recognised for its exceptional combination of luxury and value as it receives WhatCar? kudos for 'Best buy family car under £17,000'. Soon to be joined by an estate version, Superb continues to recognised for its design, luxury and great value.

This trio of WhatCar? price point wins demonstrates, as does Škoda’s increasing market share, yet again that Škoda‘s blend of great quality cars at outstanding value for money across its most comprehensive and competitive range of cars yet is bringing increasing numbers of customers to the brand.
