Skoda Atero concept built by apprentices, based on Rapid hatch

The Skoda Atero concept “coupe”, based on the Rapid hatch, has been built by 26 vocational students from Skoda Academy.


To create the Atero, the students moved the B pillar back, extended the front doors, eliminated the rear doors, increased the slope of the roof, and moved the slanting point for the roof forward. The rear hatch also has a faster rake to go along with the new roof.

You can still see the C pillar, although it’s partially hidden by the large rear side window.

Other changes include hood vents, new tail lamps, large exhaust tips, and sportier bumpers. The Atero is powered by a 92kW/125PS 1.4-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

The Atero follows on from the 2014 CitiJet and 2015 Funstar pickup apprentice built concepts.
