Next, let's take a closer look at the configuration of this car:

Skoda SCALA G-TEC positioning hatchback compact car, appearance, appearance is also fashionable, using Skoda's latest design language, the front face modeling three-dimensional sense is very strong, straight waterfall intake grille connected with both sides of the headlights, coupled with silver trim decoration, high recognition. The side lines of the car body are also very full and full of muscle.
