New Skoda Scala officially on sale in the UK
The new Skoda Scala, Skoda’s replacement for the forgettable Rapid, is now officially on sale in the UK with prices starting from £16,595.
But Skoda has decided to bring that on sale date for the UK forward, so if you’ve been hankering after a Scala you’re in luck – the Scala is now officially on sale in the UK.
The headline starting point for the new Scala is £16,595, although Skoda are keen to point out you can have 1.0TSI 115PS Scala SE for £299 a month (plus a £2,766.77 deposit), and that you can also pay an extra £159 up front and get the first two services sorted.
The Scala comes in a choice of three trim levels and three engine options with standard equipment across the range including LED headlights, alloys and Air Con.
The entry-level Scala S (from £16,595)gets 16″ alloys, DAB, electric windows, Swing Infotainment with 6.5″ screen, Front Assist, Lane Assist and Speed Limiter. The Scala S won’t be available until later in the year.
The Scala SE (from £18,585), which is available straight away, adds in Cruise, rear parking sensors, Bolero Infotainment with 8″ screen, integrated umbrella (it’s a Skoda) and a height adjustable passenger seat.
The range-topping Scala SE L (from £20,385) gets Skoda’s posh Amundsen Infotainment with 9.2″ glass touchscreen, Virtual Cockpit, Climate, Keyless, 17″ alloys, LED tail lights, dynamic indicators, privacy glass and Microsuede trim.
Options for trhe Scala include a panoramic glas roof (£925), electrically operated boot (£400), sports chassis (£495) and a range of alloy wheel choices up to 18″.
Engine options initially are a pair of petrol engines and a single diesel, with a 1.0 litre TSI with 113bhp, a 1.5 litre with 148bhp and a 1.6 litre TDI with 114bhp. A 94bhp of the 1.0 litre TSI will arrive later in the year.
All a lot more appealing than the old Rapid.
