Red Bull has taken delivery of 27 new Skoda Scala models, to be used by its sales team.

The cars were handed over via Skoda’s Live Tour virtual handover service, providing the team with a walk through of their new cars.

David Oliver, procurement manager at Red Bull, said: “We have a young sales team that are excited by the latest tech and innovations, and this was an important consideration when we looked to update our fleet. The Scala is packed full of technology that will keep them online and connected at all times, which made it a compelling option for the team.”

Red Bull’s sales team, known as “The Musketeers”, have taken delivery of the Scala 1.0 litre TSI 115PS in the SE L trim, which features a 9.2-inch fully connected infotainment system and a 10.2-inch virtual cockpit.

The Skoda Live Tour was used to condense the car handover process into an easily digestible virtual tour that covered the main highlights of the car, including how to navigate the latest generation infotainment system.

The Scala features a built-in eSIM, so the car is always online. It also offers Emergency Call, which automatically makes a call in case of an accident and locates the vehicle by GPS, and the Proactive Service function books in service appointments without hassle.

The Red Bull team opted to include more driver comfort features such as adaptive cruise control, variable boot floor and the electrically operated boot.

The Skoda Scala is available in three trim levels and is priced from £16,940 OTR.
