Is the Skoda Scala ULEZ compliant?

It depends on the fuel and the Euro emissions standard of the car, not on the model. Here is how 23,202 DVSA MOT tests of the Skoda Scala with a recorded fuel, from 2022 to 2025 on cars aged 3 to 25 at test, split by fuel and first-use year, and which of them generally meet the London ULEZ and clean air zone standards.

MOT data updated · Zone rules checked

Short answer, by fuel

  • Petrol: petrol cars first used in 2006 or later generally meet Euro 4, the standard for petrol cars. All petrol Scala MOT tests (n=23,202) were on cars first used in 2006 or later.

Fuels and first-use dates

Share of Skoda Scala MOT tests by fuel, and the share on cars first used late enough to meet the standard by date alone. We count by the car’s age at test, so cars close to a cut-off are left out of that share: it is a lower bound.

Skoda Scala MOT tests 2022 to 2025 with a recorded fuel, on cars aged 3 to 25 at test (n=23,202). A fuel is listed when it has at least 1,000 tests.

By first-use year

Every first-use year of the Skoda Scala with enough MOT tests, and what the date alone says for each fuel. We do not have the fuel split for each year. Cars under 3 years old have no MOT yet, so the newest first-use year here is 2022.

Skoda Scala MOT tests 2022 to 2025 by the year the car was first used, all fuels, cars aged 3 to 25 at test. A year is listed when it has at least 1,000 tests.

Compliance is decided for each car, not for a model. A zone checks the Euro emissions standard the car was built to, which is on the V5C log book or the maker’s certificate of conformity. The years here are a guide: many cars first used before a cut-off still meet it. Check one car with our ULEZ checker or TfL’s vehicle checker. Exemptions such as the disabled tax class or historic vehicles depend on the car and its keeper.
