Škoda has confirmed final UK specifications and pricing for the SUV version of its ENYAQ iV vRS – the second all-electric model to wear the brand’s iconic vRS badge.
Available to order from January 17th, the SUV follows in the wheel tracks of the ENYAQ COUPÉ iV vRS launched earlier this year.
Priced from £52,670 on the road, the ENYAQ iV vRS is fitted with an 82kWh (77kWh net) battery pack with 135kW rapid charging and has a WLTP driving range of 321 miles.
The vehicle has a power output of 299 PS and is equipped with twin motors – one on each axle, the company said. Combined, the motors deliver 460 Nm of torque to give instant acceleration and a powerful mid-range response. It has a top speed of 111 mph and sprints from 0 to 62mph in just 6.5 seconds.
It can be rapid DC charged at speeds of up to 135 kW via a CCS connector and can achieve an 80% charge in as little as 36 minutes when connected to a 150-kW charger or faster. On a standard 7.2kW home wallbox, a charge from empty to full will take around 13 hours.
Drive Mode Select offers the predefined profiles Eco, Normal and Sport, while a custom slider allows the driver to adjust the settings to their own preferences.
Comfort driving mode is only available when optional Dynamic Chassis Control is specified. The ENYAQ iV vRS also offers the additional driving profile Traction, which is designed for driving on unpaved roads or slippery surfaces.
Taurus 20in alloy wheels with aerodynamically optimised aero trims are fitted as standard, with larger 21in Vision wheels sporting an anthracite finish as an option.
The sporting flagship comes as standard with a three-zone climate control system, LED ambient lighting that also illuminates the dashboard and door panels, as well as wireless smartphone charging.
First UK deliveries of the new ENYAQ iV vRS are expected from June 2023, the company said.
Three more all-new e-models will be launched by 2026. The goal is to offer a complete range of electric products from small cars to 7-seaters and boost the EV share of deliveries in Europe to more than 70% by 2030, Škoda said.
