Skoda begins Scala production in Mlada Boleslav

The Scala is the brand's first model to be based on Volkswagen Group's Modular Transverse Matrix (MQB-A0) platform. This enables the use of innovative assistance systems from higher-tier segments and provides even more safety and comfort in the compact car segment.

Alongside Lane Assist, Skoda offers Blind Spot Detect or Side Assist with Rear Traffic Alert, and Adaptive Cruise Control for the Scala. Full-LED head and tail lights are also available.

Skoda CEO, Bernhard Maier, said, "We are starting a new chapter in Skoda's compact car range with the new Skoda Scala. It is an all new model that sets benchmarks within its segment in terms of technology, safety and design. The Scala perfectly embodies the Skoda-typical 'smart understatement'. We're convinced that the Scala has the best chance of redefining the compact segment for Skoda."
