ŠKODA AUTO is expanding its RS family to include another all-electric model - the ENYAQ iV RS. Just like the ENYAQ COUPÉ iV RS, the Czech carmaker has opted for two motors with a total system output of 299 PS (220 kW) and all-wheel drive for the top version of the SUV. Thanks to an exceptional drag coefficient of cw 0.265, the ENYAQ iV RS has a range of over 310 miles (500 kilometres) in the WLTP cycle.
A new addition to ŠKODA's range: The Czech car manufacturer's sporty RS line-up has been expanded to include a second all-electric model - the new ENYAQ iV RS. The SUV features all-wheel drive and two electric motors with a system output of 299 PS (220 kW) as does the ENYAQ COUPÉ iV RS. This makes the two RS versions of the ENYAQ iV family the most powerful vehicles in ŠKODA's portfolio. The ENYAQ iV family is based on the Volkswagen Group's Modular Electrification Toolkit (MEB) and rolls off the production line at ŠKODA's main plant in Mladá Boleslav. The ENYAQ iV and ENYAQ COUPÉ iV are the only MEB models to be manufactured in Europe outside Germany.
ENYAQ RS iV offers excellent driving dynamics and generous space
Besides its sporty look and dynamic handling, the new ŠKODA ENYAQ iV RS offers a generous amount of space for up to five people. The SUV is 4,653 millimetres long, 1,879 millimetres wide and 1,605 millimetres high, with a wheelbase of 2,768 millimetres. At 585 litres, the boot capacity is 15 litres larger than the ENYAQ COUPÉ iV RS and can be expanded to up to 1,710 litres by folding down the rear seat backrests.
Highest-performance powertrain in ŠKODA's model range
The ŠKODA ENYAQ iV RS is based on the Volkswagen Group's Modular Electrification Toolkit (MEB) and, like the ENYAQ COUPÉ iV RS, boasts the highest-performance powertrain in the current model portfolio. One electric motor sits on the front axle while the second is on the rear axle. The ENYAQ iV RS benefits from all-wheel drive, with a system output of 299 PS (220 kW) and a maximum torque of 460 Nm.
Sporty chassis and 82 kWh battery for long range
Delivering the energy for a maximum range of over 310 miles (500 kilometres) in the WLTP cycle is an 82 kWh high-voltage battery, the largest battery in the range. It can be charged at DC fast charging points with a charging power of up to 135 kW and at AC wallboxes at up to 11 kW. The 'Plug & Charge' function is new. This makes it possible to start the charging process at suitable charging points stored in the POWERPASS app simply by connecting the charging cable; the vehicle is identified at the charging point and the charging session is billed automatically.
