Green Apple Award for Yeti

The Green Organisation, an independent group dedicated to promoting great environmental behaviours, bestowed the honour. Its annual awards highlight the benefits and profits that can come from environmental best practices.

This year is the first time it has chosen to honour new cars, and selected the Yeti E 2.0-litre TDI CR as the inaugural winner in the ‘Smaller SUV and 4x4’ category.

The award was judged by members of the Midland Group of Motoring Writers. “It does everything you need a car to do and you get a lot of car for the money. This is actually that rare beast – an SUV with luggage space,” said the judges.

ŠKODA UK Product Marketing Manager Chris Horrell was delighted with the prize: “The Yeti has been a game-changing car for ŠKODA, and to win an award based around its environmental credentials is fantastic. That we’re the first winner of this honour makes it doubly special.”
