Simply Clever offering new features in the compact car segment

› SCALA introduces new brand-typical Simply Clever details into the compact car segment
› Electric tailgate and electrically retractable tow bar
› Integrated funnel in the lid of the windscreen washer tank and ice scraper in the fuel filler flap with a tyre tread depth gauge

ŠKODA is well-known for its Simply Clever solutions. The SCALA is no different – it provides a variety of intelligent features to make day-to-day life that little bit easier for its owners. In addition to the classics such as the ticket holder on the A-pillar on the driver’s side and the umbrella compartment (including umbrella) in the driver’s door, these also include useful new details such as the ice scraper in the fuel filler flap with a tyre tread depth gauge and an integrated funnel in the lid of the windscreen washer tank. If desired, the SCALA can be equipped with an electric tailgate; the optional electrically retractable tow bar can be released using a button in the boot.

ŠKODA CEO, Bernhard Maier, said, “Just like every other ŠKODA model, the new SCALA also comes with some unique Simply Clever solutions that really make a difference to our customers’ everyday lives. To name just one: the retractable tow bar, which is electrically unlocked with just the push of a button.”

The SCALA is the first in its segment to come with an optional electric tailgate, which can be opened and closed at the touch of a button, allowing easy access to the large boot. Thanks to the integrated Tip-To-Close function, it can also be closed by lightly pulling on the open tailgate. The optional electrically retractable tow bar is new to the segment too; it can be released at the touch of a button in the boot. A 12V socket is also available in the boot. The ice scraper in the fuel filler flap now features a tyre tread depth gauge. The integrated funnel in the lid of the windscreen washer tank allows the washer fluid to be refilled tidily.
