Engine power and kerb weight are registration-weighted averages of the Škoda Scala registered in the EU/EEA in 2025 (37,157 cars), engine power from 24 countries, kerb weight from 25 countries. Source: EEA CO₂ monitoring (CC BY 4.0).
Engine power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the power of the combustion engine, not the system power, and for electric cars it can differ from the peak power the manufacturer advertises.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Petrol | 85 kW (114 hp) | 1,229 kg | 2019–2020 | 86 |

Plus 1 variant with fewer than 10 cars (5 cars in total).
Power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep).
