Full Australian pricing and specifications for the upcoming 2020 Skoda Scala small car has been announced, following its global unveiling in December 2018. Although its original 2019 launch date had been pushed out by production delays, a June debut is now confirmed, with the long-awaited Scala set to slot into the small car class alongside its group stablemate the Volkswagen Golf – but with the promise of more space and more equipment for the same spend.

Skoda has revealed the Scala Monte Carlo, bringing a sportier trim level to its all-new hatchback range. Like other Monte Carlo models in the Skoda line-up, the Scala Monte Carlo picks up extras like blacked-out exterior design elements for the grille, mirrors and badging, along with black 17-inch alloys as standard – with larger 18-inch rims available as an option.

Euro NCAP has released its latest round of crash results including a range of new models, including the Tesla Model 3, Skoda Scala, Mercedes-Benz B-Class, Kia Ceed, and DS 3 Crossback. The Model 3 impressed with a perfect score in the frontal offset test, and its Safety Assist performance – where it scored 94 per cent, the best yet under Euro NCAP’s most recent protocol.

Interior sketches of the upcoming Skoda Scala hatch have been revealed by the Czech automaker overnight. If the production version stays true to the teaser, the Scala will have a much classier cabin than the Rapid it will replace. Among the available features in the new Scala is a 10.25-inch fully digital instrumentation screen.
