Skoda is plastering over the cracks in its range with an new concept car for Frankfurt. Shown here is these first official photos of the MissionL Concept, which will slot inbetween the Fabia and Octavia. And the show car is said to be extremely close to the final design.

Taking inspiration from the slightly larger VisionD concept shown at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year, the MissionL combines crisp clean styling with a half-saloon, half-hatchback bodystyle that's described by Skoda as a 'compact liftback'.
