Skoda is presenting the high-end RS versions to complete its new Enyaq family. Available in SUV and Coupé versions, the new Enyaq models are the fastest charging and accelerating production models from the Czech automotive manufacturer, alongside the new Elroq RS.
With two motors, a maximum power of 340 hp, and all-wheel drive, they accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds. Its high-voltage battery with a capacity of 84 kWh (79 kWh net) can be charged up to 185 kW, and charging from 10 to 80% takes only 26 minutes at a DC fast charging station, making the Enyaq RS the fastest charging production model from Skoda, alongside the Elroq RS.
The electric range in this configuration exceeds 560 kilometers for the Enyaq RS and exceeds 570 kilometers for the Enyaq Coupé RS in the WLTP cycle. AC charging is possible at 11 kW, taking 8:30 hours for a full battery charge in this case. A new feature is bidirectional charging, which allows the battery to function as a supplementary energy storage unit at home.
On the outside, the new Enyaq RS features a front section marked by Skoda’s new Modern Solid design language. Its most striking elements are the new glossy black Tech-Deck Face that houses important sensors, including the radar, as well as the appealing Light Band in the form of a vertical light grille. This is part of the standard equipment, along with the LED Matrix headlights, whose four-eye appearance is characteristic of Skoda’s SUV model range.
The LED Matrix headlights and the Light Band offer an arrival/departure animation at the front of the vehicle. A second “Coming/Leaving Home” animation is available as an option, which also incorporates the LED rear lights with dynamic indicators.
Also noteworthy are the exclusive alloy wheels, up to 21 inches. The dynamics of the models are enhanced by the progressive steering system, ensuring perfect vehicle control. The sports chassis lowers the front axle by 15 mm and the rear axle by 10 mm for a more agile setup.
Note also the adaptive chassis, DCC, which is available as an option. It has a more dynamic damping configuration compared to the previous version and includes 15 levels of stiffness for the shock absorbers. Due to its high performance, the RS variants are equipped with more powerful brakes on the front axle, with two-piston calipers.
Inside, the new Enyaq RS is available with two trim levels: RS Lounge and RS Suite. In the RS Lounge Design Selection, the black seats are upholstered in a combination of suede microfiber and ecoPremium, with contrasting lime green stitching.
On the other hand, in the optional RS Suite trim level, the upholstery features a combination of leather and ecoPremium with grey stitching. The front door panels and the instrument panel have a carbon-look decoration. The heated, three-spoke sports steering wheel is covered in perforated leather. It is provided with an RS logo and lime green stitching for the RS Lounge, and black stitching together with the RS Suite.
The heated front sports seats, with integrated headrests, and the stainless steel pedal coverings complement the dynamic aspect of the interior. The driver’s seat is always electrically adjustable and offers memory and massage functions, as well as lumbar support adjustment.
For the front passenger seat, the electric adjustment, massage, and memory functions are part of the optional Ultra package. As with other Enyaq models, a heat pump with autonomous functionality is available as an option.
Also note the standard 13’’ screen and Infotainment system. The head-up display with augmented reality is part of the optional Advanced pack, which also includes the Surround View Camera and the CANTON sound system with 12 speakers, with a total power of 635 W. All screens feature specific RS graphics.
Skoda has already announced that the Enyaq RS is available on the national market starting at €54,905.
