More about towing with the new Skoda Scala
UK holidays are on the rise, therefore having enough space for the whole family in the car is of paramount importance. With the Skoda Scala, no one needs to have their space compromised as the roomy passenger space boasts enough room for everyone to sit comfortably.
The Skoda Scala entered the car market in 2019, jam-packed with 21st-century technology. Although it is often compared to the Skoda Octavia, the Scala has made a name for itself with its capabilities. The Scala’s technology is heavily safety-based, with plenty of clever pieces that make the driving experience much more manageable. Two of the main safety features are the Front Assist and the Hill Hold Control.
Front Lane Assist is a new piece of technology that monitors the front of the vehicle via radar. It can bring the car to a standstill if there is a danger of colliding with an oncoming vehicle. A clever piece of kit to give you peace of mind when driving.
Hill Hold Control makes the fear of a hill start a thing of the past. Long gone are the days of panicking to get the car set up ready to wait when you are on a hill. Hill Hold Control works by holding the brake in position while the driver sets up and activates the first gear to move the car from a complete stop.
What’s the Towing Capacity of the Scala?
The towing capacity on the Skoda Scala is between 1200KG- 1250KG; although this is not the largest of capacities, there is still plenty of scope for fitting a cycle carrier onto a towbar. Different models of the Scala do have varying weights, so please check your VIN plate for an accurate reading.
Which Towbar is best for my Skoda Scala?
The only Towbar we have available for the Skoda Scala is the detachable swan neck towbar. This is perfect for the vehicle with parking sensors, as the towbar neck can be removed once towing is completed. The detachable neck will also allow for the ascetics of the vehicle to be unchanged once the towbar neck has been removed.
Will it need a bumper cut?
The Skoda Scala would require a non-visible bumper cut made to the undertray of the bumper. The bumper cut would only be visible when looking underneath the bumper. All modifications made to a vehicle are made as neat as possible. If your Scala’s bumper is not a standard design, further cuts could be required; don’t hesitate to contact our sales team if you have any queries.
