New 2007 Skoda Roomster Scout
New Skoda Roomster Scout will be making its world debut at the Essen Motor Show and will go on sale next March in Europe.
Skoda, the Czech affiliate of the Volkswagen Group has prepared a facelift for the Roomster’s exterior and interior to give it a sporty look, and has equipped this front-wheel-drive with sporty 16-inch wheels and tires, making the new Roomster a cool car in the MPV class.
The new Roomster Scout from Skoda is the new version of the Skoda compact MPV.
Gas and diesel engines are available: the basic option is the 1.2 HTP economic petrol engine (47 kW), the alternatives are 1.4 16V/63 kW and 1.6 16V/77 kW engines.For diesel engines Skoda offers 1.4 TDI PD engine with outputs of 51 or 59 kW and a 1.9 TDI PD/77 kW engine.
The 1.6-liter gasoline 4 cylinder that makes 103 horsepower is the top engine for this new model from Skoda and can be mated to either a five-speed manual or a six-speed Tiptronic transmission. So, it is not such a fast car, but it looks quite cool for an MPV.
The five-speed, fully synchronised gearbox is the standard for the new Skoda 2007 Roomster Scout.
The SunSet system in the tailgate, rear side windows and the rear windows (dark tinted glass in the standard package) makes the vehicle’s exterior even more attractive. The dashboard comes in the Onyx/Onyx and Onyx/Silver versions, the seat upholstery material is identical with that in the Octavia Scout.More from the new Skoda Roomster Scout Press Release.
