At this time of year, Skoda will release one or several brand-new concept cars. Different from the styling concept displayed at the auto show, the Skoda concept cars released during this period are all graduation works developed by students of Skoda Vocational School. . It has to be said that Skoda has indeed done a good job in nurturing new employees.
This year, the homework submitted by Skoda’s student party is a pickup truck concept car based on Kodiak-Mountiaq. For the design and manufacture of this concept car, the student party of Skoda Vocational School spent 2,000 hours building Kodiak into a pickup truck. And the playful atmosphere of the off-road school is emphasized on this pickup.
From the modeling point of view, after cutting off the rear body, the Skoda Mountiaq concept car presents a small-scale appearance, which is also the characteristic of the pickup truck.
However, unlike traditional pickups, the Skoda Mountiaq concept car based on Kodiak does not have a large stretch length, which limits the image of the whole car to a limited range.
According to the official information released by Skoda, the new Skoda Mountiaq concept car has a body length of 4,999 mm, a body width of 2,005 mm, and a body height of 1,710 mm. Compared with the regular version of Kodiaq, it has been improved.
The ground clearance has also been increased to 290 mm, which is 100 mm higher than that of Kodiak. The increased ground clearance plays an important role in the handsome off-road vehicle image of the ŠKODA Mountiaq Concept.
At the same time, the Skoda Mountiaq concept car also compresses the size of the doors under the limited cab, only retaining the front side doors and forming a one-and-a-half-row cab. Different from traditional pickup trucks, the Skoda Mountiaq concept car retains the lower body of the Kodiaq, and uses an integral side wall to form the connection between the cargo box and the cab.
In terms of details, the Skoda Mountiaq concept car uses a set of wide-body kits to expand the width of the vehicle’s undercarriage. This also makes this concept car look more like a standard sedan.
In terms of accessories, 17-inch all-terrain tires, gantry frame, wading hose, winch, anti-collision bar and roof auxiliary light source are all performances of its off-road performance optimization.
In general, the design of the Skoda Mountiaq concept car is to embellish the image of a sedan with the attachment of a traditional off-road pickup, and the collision effect is obvious. In the interior of the vehicle, embroidery, front refrigerator, high-power audio, etc. are used as the display of its youthfulness.
