SKODA KAROQ CONVERSIBLE WILL BE PRESENTED AS A CONCEPT
A Skoda Karoq convertible will be a reality, but not at first. While Volkswagen has dared to develop the future Volkswagen T-Roc Cabrio, in the case of Skoda so far it is not for your plans to introduce a convertible body version of your well-known compact SUV, at that time will present only one concept car.A group of talented young trainees from Skoda's professional school are in charge of bringing the Skoda Karoq Cabrio to life. The project to create a convertible Karoq has already begun, and although we can not yet see the final result, the Czech manufacturer has revealed a series of images where you can appreciate different sketches of the model. The final result will be unveiled next June.Comprised of students aged 17, 18 and 20, they all have one common goal, making the Skoda Karoq a SUV convertible. For now the brand did not give many details about it, but from what can be seen in the images below, the works on the metal part have already begun. Judging by what you notice in the sketches, the model will not have the rear doors.What remains to be seen is the convertible system chosen by young trainees. They are most likely to be betting on a multi-layered canvas hood, as it is the most widely used technology within the Volkswagen Group - like the convertibles marketed by Audi and Volkswagen itself. The rigid convertible ceilings have long since lagged behind.Nor does it overlook one of the sketches where you can only see the front row of seats, sensing that the Skoda Karoq Cabrio could be a two-seat model. At the moment it is not possible to say this, but the trainees of the Skoda usually present concept cars a little extravagant and of annual form already a long time.The latest Skoda Academy project was the Skoda Element Concept. They took as base a Skoda Citigo and made it into a kind of buggy equipped with a totally electric mechanic.
