THE Skoda Scala ungummeleli omusha wohlobo lwaseCzech lwesigaba C, lapho kuhlala khona izimoto ezifana neFord Focus, Renault Mégane noma “umzala okude” iVolkswagen Golf. Ithatha indawo ye-Rapid, nakuba ingasishintshi ngokuqondile - i-Scala itshalwe ngokuqinile esigabeni sika-C, kanti i-Rapid ibekwe phansi kakhulu.
Kodwa ingabe i-C-segment ye-Skoda akuyona i-Octavia? Yebo, kodwa... I-Octavia, ngenxa yobukhulu bayo (enkulu kakhulu kunesilinganiso) kanye nefomethi (imiqulu emibili nengxenye), igcina "ingalingani" phakathi kwebutho lama-hatchbacks (imizimba enevolumu emibili) ingqikithi yengxenye. Kuvamile ukufunda nokuzwa ukuthi uphakathi kwamasegimenti amabili - lolo hlobo lokungabaza luyanyamalala nge-Scala.
Ngokuthakazelisayo, i-Skoda Scala, esekelwe ku-platform ye-MQB A0 - eyokuqala kumkhiqizi - isebenzisa izisekelo ezifanayo ne-SEAT Ibiza ne-Volkswagen Polo, kusukela engxenyeni engezansi.
Iwindi lesithathu elivulekile lenza i-Scala ibukeke njengesixhumanisi esingekho phakathi kwamavolumu amabili (i-hatchback) namaveni engxenye.
Kodwa uScala akakhohlisi. Ubukhulu bayo buphuma ku-“segment yegalofu”, njengoba ubufakazi bokuthi ingu-4.36 m ubude no-1.79 m ububanzi, noma i-wheelbase engu-2.649 m — inde ngo-31 cm kunePolo (ehlanganyela nayo i-MQB A0), kodwa 31 cm mfushane kune-Octavia.
Okungakuvumeli ukuthi uqagele ukuthi i-Scala iminyene kangakanani indawo ebhodini - lena cishe imoto evuleke kakhulu esigabeni. Bahlala ezihlalweni ezingemuva futhi noma ngabe idlula ngobude obungu-1.80 m “ngentando”, i-Scala inesikhala esikhulu - umbono umuntu awutholayo owokuthi sisemotweni enkulu.
Enye yezingxabano eziqine kakhulu zika-Scala ilele esikhaleni ebhodini. I-trunk inamandla angama-467 l, enye ephezulu kakhulu engxenyeni.
I-legroom ngemuva iyireferensi, ilingana ne-Octavia; akukho ukuntuleka kwendawo yokuphakama, ngisho nalapho ifakwe uphahla lwe-panoramic ozikhethela; futhi isiqu, at 467 l, ingeyesibili kuphela Honda Civic ngobukhulu, kodwa kuphela 11 l kuphela (478 l).
Ihlezi ngaphambili, kunengxubevange yokusha nokujwayela. Idizayini yedeshibhodi yintsha ku-Skoda, kodwa izilawuli noma isistimu ye-infotainment ayixhunywanga kalula ne-Skoda kuphela, kodwa neminye imikhiqizo evela eqenjini elikhulu lakwaVolkswagen. Lokho okulahlekelwa ngabanye, uthola kalula ukusetshenziswa nokusebenzisana, okungadingi "imizamo yengqondo" enkulu yokwazi ukuthi yonke into ikuphi nokunciphisa amazinga okuphazamiseka.
Ingaphakathi libheke ohlangothini lwe-Conservative, kodwa kunzima ukugxeka uma kuziwa ku-ergonomics.
Esondweni
Isikhathi sokungena emgwaqeni, cishe ngamakhilomitha angu-200 esihlukanisa nendawo okuyiwa kuyo, phakathi kwe-Lisbon ne-Mourão, e-Alentejo. Ithuba lokuthi i-Skoda Scala ibonise amakhono ayo njenge-roadster - ingxenye enkulu yomzila izoba ngothelawayeka.
Futhi i-estradista enhle yilokho uScala aba yikho. Isihlalo nesiteringi (esikhumba) sinokulungiswa okubanzi ngokwanele ukuze sithole indawo yokushayela esifanelayo, isihlalo sibonakale sikhululekile ngisho nangemva kokuthi "shift" yokushayela isikhathi eside.
Ngezivinini eziphezulu zokuhamba ngomkhumbi — 130-140 km/h — inothi lokugingqika nomsindo we-aerodynamic, ohlala kumazinga amukelekayo. Akuyona "iNkosi ye-Autobahn", kodwa kusivumele ukuthi sibone ukuthi ifaneleka kakhulu ohambweni olude oluthatha isikhathi sokuvakasha, ngenxa yamazinga amahle okunethezeka nokucwengwa.
Uma ufuna ulwazi lokushayela olubukhali futhi olujabulisayo, ungabheka kwenye indawo, kodwa i-Scala ayiyekethisi. Akukhona nje ukuthi umuzwa wezilawuli ohlelweni oluhle kakhulu, okuveza isisindo esanele, ukunemba okuhle kakhulu nokuqhubekela phambili, kodwa ukuziphatha kuhlale kufakazela ukuthi kunembe futhi kuyabikezelwa, okuqinisekisa amazinga aphezulu okuzethemba esondweni.
Okwethu bekukhona izinjini ezimbili kwezintathu i-Scala ezoba nazo (okwamanje) ePortugal, i I-1.0 TSI ye-116 hp kanye ne-1.6 TDI ye-116 hp . Zombili ezino gearbox omuhle kakhulu onamagiya ayisithupha ashintshwayo — anembile, kodwa anamazinga ahlukene emishini — Isitayela, izinga eliphezulu kakhulu, ku-1.0 TSI; kanye neSifiso se-1.6 TDI. Okuwukuphela kwento engekho ocingweni i-1.0 TSI ye-95 hp, injini ezosebenza njengokufinyelela kububanzi be-Scala.
Bhalisela iphephandaba lethu
Kule nguqulo ye-116 hp kanye ne-manual gearbox, i-1.0 TSI izivezile, okwamanje, ngesiphakamiso esithakazelisa kakhulu. I-turbocharger yeqembu lakwaVolkswagen etholakala yonke indawo eyi-three cylinder ingenye ehamba phambili emakethe, icishe ibukeke njengenjini enamandla amakhulu ngokwemvelo elangazelelayo. Ukulethwa ngomugqa, kwenza konke okusemandleni akho ezinhlotsheni ezimaphakathi, iqinisekisa izinzuzo ezihloniphekile ze-Scala zokusetshenziswa komndeni.
Icolisekile futhi ithule kune-1.6 TDI engiyibuyisele emuva, futhi ivumela ukusetshenziswa okuphusile, lolu hambo luhlale ne- 6.5 l/100 km , ngisho nokucabangela ukuthi ukushayela okuvumela abathengi akuzange kwenziwe.
NjengeSitayela, ifakwe amasondo angu-17″ — 16″ e-Ambition — ngakho-ke esilahlekelwe ngokunethezeka (hhayi okuningi), sizuze okwengeziwe ngobukhali obuguqukayo.
Ukuze isetshenziswe, i-1.6 TDI ayinakuqhathaniswa, vele - 5.0 l/100 km , ngohlobo olufanayo lokushayela - futhi "njengomgijimi ongemuva", ikakhulukazi isikhathi eside emgwaqeni onguthelawayeka, kubonakale kungumlingani ofanelekile.
Akujabulisi kangako okwenziwayo lapho ijubane lehla futhi sidinga ukuncika kakhulu kusigubhu esiwugibe — sizwakala kakhulu futhi akujabulisi ukusilalela kune-1.0 TSI, kanye nokushoda kwetorque engaphansi kuka-1500 rpm kwenza ukusetshenziswa kwayo emizileni yasemadolobheni. ukungabaza okwengeziwe.
Vele, i-Scala ayinakho ukuntula imininingwane ethi "Simply Clever", njengesambulela esakhelwe emnyango...
Ekuphetheni
Ukungena okuqinile kwe-Skoda enhliziyweni ye-C-segment. I-Skoda Scala yethula isethi yezimpikiswano ezinamandla, ngaphezu kwakho konke mayelana nendawo, ukunethezeka kanye nentengo, iziveza njengesiphakamiso esivuthiwe nesifanayo, ngaphandle kwanoma yibuphi ubuthakathaka obuphawulekayo.
Isivele idayiswa e-Portugal ngamanani ancintisanayo, iqala ngo izindleko 21 960 Euro ku-95 hp 1.0 TSI. I-116 hp 1.0 TSI ne-1.6 TDI esithole ithuba lokuyishayela inamanani aqala ku- izindleko 22 815 Euro futhi izindleko 26 497 Euro , ngokulandelana.
