Škoda offers first glimpse of Scala and Kamiq
Škoda has released the first official exterior sketches previewing the refreshed versions of its Scala compact model and Kamiq city SUV.
The new Scala and Kamiq will be celebrating their digital world premieres on 1 August.
Four years on from their initial production launch, the Škoda Scala and the Škoda Kamiq (pictured) are poised for a refresh. Technology updates and exterior design modifications combine to highlight each model’s key characteristics, such as the Scala’s dynamic appeal and the rugged appearance of the Kamiq.
Both now sport redesigned headlights, front and rear aprons and grille. New alloy wheels and tailgate lettering complete the revamp.
The Scala’s slimmer headlights extend all the way to the grille. The air intake in the new front apron is divided by additional side wings.
Painted in the body colour, these are also found in the diffuser on the revised rear apron, which is flanked by crystalline elements. The tail lights now feature a new and more refined graphic design.
The updated Kamiq now has more visual presence. The upper element of the signature split headlights is now slimmer and has a more pronounced design. The larger and more upright Škoda grille presents distinctive double slats that form a U‑shape at the bottom.
In the front apron, a painted area below the grille and an air intake accentuate the vehicle’s width, complemented by a sturdy silver diffuser that provides underbody protection. The rear diffuser consists of a wide upper section in black and a rugged silver-coloured lower section.
The revised L-shaped light characteristic of the split tail lights visually ties in with the reflectors, which also adopt an L-shape.
Škoda aims to be one of the five best-selling brands in Europe by 2030 with an attractive line-up in the entry-level segments and additional e-models.
