Skoda Scala FAQs
You’ll only find Scala cars in one version – a five-door, five-seat model with a hatchback boot lid. The Scala is among the most affordable models in its class and size, so most of its rivals including the Volkswagen Golf, Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra, are a little more expensive when similarly equipped. Buyers looking at Scalas might want to consider cross shopping it against small SUVs like the Dacia Duster and Skoda’s own Kamiq.
The Skoda Scala is a little less than 4.4 metres long. That makes it noticeably larger than Skoda’s Fabia hatchback, but more compact than the longer Octavia saloon and estate. The Scala’s length puts it in a similar ballpark as the Ford Focus and Kia Ceed, and a few millimetres shorter than the Volkswagen Golf. City drivers shouldn’t find the Scala too much of a challenge to park, with all models including rear parking sensors as standard.
Skoda has built its name on the back of practical cars and the Scala upholds this tradition with gusto. The cabin has enough space to seat adults in all five seats, with only rear elbow room in short supply if you’re carrying three side-by-side. The boot, similarly, is large with enough room for a push chair or several suitcases.
The Scala engine lineup is easy to understand, with just three petrol options to choose from. All of the engines have enough power to help the Scala feel relaxed on the move, but we’d suggest avoiding the entry-level option if you cover a lot of motorway miles.
Yes, the Skoda Scala is a sensible, practical car that is typically cheaper than family hatchback rivals. It has a bigger boot than a VW Golf and comes with a fuss-free, economical driving experience that should make the Scala delightfully easy to live with.
