Škoda Auto is advancing its electrification strategy with the introduction of the new Enyaq family, one of Europe's most successful all electric model series. Notably, both the Škoda Enyaq and the Škoda Enyaq Coupé now feature the brand's new Modern Solid design language, reinforcing their visual appeal. The updated Enyaq boasts an extended range, thanks in part to optimised aerodynamics, along with sustainable materials and extensive standard equipment. Additionally, the new Enyaq family introduces enhanced digital capabilities and more advanced assistance systems. Orders for the new Enyaq open in several European markets on 9 January 2025, with prices starting at around €44,000.
Bestseller in many European countries
Launched in 2020 as Škoda's first model based on the Volkswagen Group's Modular Electrification Toolkit (MEB), the Škoda Enyaq is now among the bestselling battery-electric vehicles in many key European markets. By the end of 2024, the electric SUV, along with its Coupé variant, had been delivered to over 250,000 customers. With over 75,000 units sold globally in 2024, the Enyaq secured top sales positions in several key European markets. In Germany, Škoda Auto's largest single market, it ranked second with more than 25,000 units sold.
The next chapter of the Enyaq's success story
The new Enyaq now comes with even more extensive standard equipment, including heated front seats, a heated steering wheel and further technical improvements. Standard features include KESSY Advanced with Open-On-Approach and Walk-Away Locking functions, 3 zone Climatronic, Side Assist, Predictive Adaptive Cruise Control (pACC) and the Traffic Jam Assist. Remote Park Assist and Remote Trained Parking are new digital features.
The new Enyaq offers two battery sizes and three powertrain options: the Enyaq 60 and Enyaq 85 each have one electric motor and rear-wheel drive, while the Enyaq 85x comes with an additional motor at the front and all-wheel drive.
For the interior, customers can choose between six distinct Design Selections. While the new sustainable Design Selection Lodge, inspired by the Modern Solid design language, uses eco friendly materials and orange details that include the seat belts, the new Design Selection Lounge is predominantly grey and combines leatherette and Suedia with contrasting light green stitching. There is also an Eco Suite Design Selection with elegant cognac-coloured seats covered in leather that has been tanned using olive leaf extract. The Suite and Eco Suite Design Selections include ventilated front seats as standard. The optional Maxx package offers electrically adjustable front seats with memory functions, massage features, and electrically adjustable lumbar support.
Exterior: The new Škoda Enyaq adopts Modern Solid design language
The new Škoda Enyaq stands out with its distinctive shape and clean lines. Featuring a glossy black Tech-Deck Face, a striking Light Band, Škoda lettering on the bonnet in Unique Dark Chrome, and the exclusive Olibo Green colour, it embodies the brand's Modern Solid design language. The new Enyaq also offers a wide range of alloy wheels, from 19 to 21 inches, and boasts excellent aerodynamics, with drag coefficients of 0.245 for the Enyaq and 0.225 for the Enyaq Coupé.
Tech-Deck Face and LED Matrix beam headlights with new four-eye look
The new Enyaq family embraces the Modern Solid design language, combining robustness, functionality and authenticity while reinterpreting familiar Škoda lines. Defining the Enyaq's front, the sleek, glossy black Tech-Deck Face conceals sensors such as the radar system and front camera. Škoda lettering has replaced the logo on the bonnet. Like the lettering at the rear, it is finished in Unique Dark Chrome, which is also used for the inserts on the front and rear aprons. Another new feature is the Light Band with fine, vertical 'eyelashes' illuminated by LEDs. Positioned above the Tech-Deck Face, it visually links the upper light units of the LED Matrix beam headlights. Two striking LED units in the lower modules provide a new, horizontal interpretation of the four-eyed night-time face that has become a hallmark of Škoda SUVs. 36 light segments in the double-row matrix module offer exceptional masking capability for oncoming vehicles.
Even the basic headlights use LEDs for all lighting functions, while the LED Matrix beam headlights add a Coming/Leaving Home animation integrating the Light Band. These are available for all models as part of the optional Advanced package, along with the head up display with augmented reality, Area View, and the CANTON Sound System.
The rear lights conform to the classic C-shape and come in two versions, both using LED technology throughout. The top version adds animated indicators and integrates the tail lights into the Coming/Leaving Home animation, offering a choice of two animations for the LED rear lights with animated indicators.
Wide range of wheels and a new exclusive colour
The powerful appearance of the Škoda Enyaq and Škoda Enyaq Coupé is underlined by large, aerodynamically optimised alloy wheels available in sizes ranging from 19 to 21 inches. Notably, the line-up now includes 21-inch Supernova alloy wheels and a newly introduced exclusive Olibo Green metallic paint finish. The colour options extend to two solid paint finishes and seven metallics.
Improved aerodynamics enable longer ranges
Several of the new Enyaq's features and adaptations enhance its already outstanding aerodynamics. These include the new front with its Modern Solid design, marked by a slimmer Tech-Deck Face with a smoother transition to the bonnet, optimised air curtains, a sealed gap between the radiator and grille, and newly designed aerodynamic wheels. The new Škoda Enyaq is now able to achieve a drag coefficient as low as 0.245, versus 0.256 for the previous model. The new Enyaq Coupé achieves an even lower drag coefficient starting at 0.225, compared to the previous 0.234, making it the most aerodynamic model in Škoda's current portfolio. This significantly increases the vehicles' range on the WLTP cycle.
The new Enyaq and Enyaq Coupé: two body styles, proven performance
The new Enyaq family comprises SUV and SUV coupé variants, both sharing the MEB platform and a 2,766 mm wheelbase. The front is equipped with ventilated disc brakes and single-piston callipers for the Enyaq 60 and twin-piston callipers for the Enyaq 85 and Enyaq 85x, while the rear axle features drum brakes, ideal for electric vehicles that rely primarily on regenerative braking. Excellent handling is ensured by a MacPherson front suspension with lower triangular arms and a transverse torsion stabiliser, paired with a multi link suspension with five transverse arms and torsion stabiliser at the rear. Driving comfort can be further enhanced with DCC adaptive dampers or progressive steering with a variable steering ratio.
Sportline variant with distinctive black detailing
The Sportline variant of the new Enyaq enhances its sporty aesthetic with extensive black detailing. This variant features a high-gloss black finish on the front spoiler, side window trim, and the roof rails of the SUV version, as well as wing mirror caps in metallic black. Both the front and rear lettering are also finished in black. Additional features include tinted rear side windows and a tinted rear window (SunSet) as well as a Sportline badge on the tailgate. The vehicle sports 20-inch Vega alloy wheels in metallic black as standard, with the option to upgrade to 21-inch Supernova wheels in the same finish. All powertrain options are available for the Sportline models, which come equipped with LED Matrix headlights and LED rear lights with animated indicators as standard. Additionally, the driver's seat includes a massage function as standard.
Interior: Spacious, timeless, intuitive, and sustainable
The new Enyaq provides ample interior space for passengers, complemented by a generous luggage capacity. Its interiors are characterised by timeless designs, intuitive controls, and enhanced standard equipment. The redesigned steering wheel now features Škoda lettering in place of the brand logo. A 5-inch Digital Cockpit comes as standard, with an optional head-up display featuring augmented reality available. The Design Selections prioritise sustainability, using innovative, durable, and practical materials. Additionally, the new Enyaq introduces several Simply Clever details to the series, including a QR code in the boot.
Spacious interior and even more generous standard equipment
The interior of the new Škoda Enyaq excels with its timeless design, outstanding ergonomics and intuitive controls. It offers plenty of space for passengers as well as generous luggage capacity - 585 to 1,710 litres in the Enyaq and 570 to 1,610 litres in the Enyaq Coupé. A 5 inch Digital Cockpit and central 13-inch infotainment display are standard.

Six Design Selections and sustainable materials
In the interior, the new Škoda Enyaq offers six different Design Selections. Reflecting the new Modern Solid design language, the Lodge Design Selection has a fresh, colourful appeal, with contrasting stitching and special seat belts in eye-catching orange. The Lodge Design Selection showcases sustainable innovation with seat upholstery made from TechnoFil containing a 75% share of ECONYL® yarns, which are obtained from sources such as discarded fishing nets, fabric scraps from factories and old carpets. The remaining 25% is made up of polyester. The new Lounge Design Selection's predominantly dark grey upholstery features seat covers made of a combination of artificial leather and Suedia microfibre with new light green contrasting stitching. In the elegant Suite Design Selection, the seat covers consist of a black leather/artificial leather mix with brown stitching. In the Eco Suite Design Selection, the cognac-coloured leather is tanned using an eco friendly process that utilises olive leaf extracts. This enables the efficient use of leaf matter considered a waste material in other processing industries. The electrically adjustable seats in both Suite versions now also have a ventilation function. The Sportline Design Selection features black sports seats with integrated headrests, Suedia/artificial leather upholstery and grey contrasting stitching.
Simply Clever features for everyday convenience
The new Škoda Enyaq introduces several new Simply Clever details to the series. Among them is the Enyaq debut of the QR code in the boot. Other notable Simply Clever features include a sustainable ice scraper with a tyre tread depth gauge integrated into the boot door panel, a sustainable umbrella in the driver's door compartment, and mobile phone pockets on the backs of the front seats. The boot also offers two bag hooks and a retractable boot cover, which can be operated with a single touch. Other convenience-enhancing innovations include the Heaters function, which automatically turns on up to four heating features, and fast-charging front and rear USB-C ports with up to 45 W of power.

Powerpass is now fully integrated into the app. Additional digital features, accessible via the MyŠkoda app on a smartphone, simplify parking and vehicle access, while updates to the infotainment system further enhance the user experience. Moreover, the list of standard assistance systems has been expanded to include Side Assist and Crew Protect Assist.
Enhanced MyŠkoda app with a host of new functions
The latest version of the MyŠkoda app introduces several enhancements designed to make life with a Škoda car even more convenient and enjoyable. Powerpass is now seamlessly integrated into the app, providing access to over 800,000 charging points across Europe. The Enyaq's Škoda Connect services now include Lock & Unlock, enabling users to remotely secure or access their vehicle via the app. Another new feature, Predictive Maintenance, uses driving data and the Vehicle Health Report to identify potential issues before they occur. This service monitors the traction battery, 12 V battery, brake pad wear, and air conditioning system. The Track & Explore tab allows users to follow the production status of their new vehicle and discover its features. Additionally, the integration of Plug & Charge into Powerpass simplifies charging at public stations by eliminating the need for external authorisation tools such as RFID cards or separate apps.
New digital features simplify parking and vehicle access
The optional Intelligent Park Assist introduces two new functions. Remote Park Assist allows the Enyaq to automatically enter parallel and perpendicular parking spaces while the owner controls it via the MyŠkoda app on their smartphone. Using Bluetooth, the system works with the owner standing near the vehicle while holding the key. After selecting the manoeuvre type, the Enyaq autonomously handles steering, braking, and movement.
Trained Parking enables the car to 'learn' approaches of up to 50 meters to five specific parking locations. Once a saved space is recognised, the Enyaq can drive itself there automatically using the Remote Trained Parking. This is controlled via the MyŠkoda app.
KESSY Advanced, standard for the Enyaq, offers added convenience with its Open-On-Approach function, which unlocks the doors and tailgate when the key holder comes within 1.5 metres of the car. Walk-Away Locking automatically locks the vehicle when the key moves beyond 2.5 metres.
Updates to the infotainment system further improve the user experience. A new Heaters button deactivates all heating functions with a single tap, while updates to the Vehicle and Apps menus move key settings into the Apps menu. The top bar now includes quick-access favourites for features like battery pre-heating, Intelligent Speed Assist, and Heaters. Additionally, users are now logged in automatically, eliminating the need for manual authentication on the welcome screen.
Additional standard assistance systems
Side Assist incl. Rear Traffic Alert and Exit Warning, Predictive Adaptive Cruise Control (pACC), which also uses Traffic Sign Recognition, and Traffic Jam Assist add to the extensive list of standard assistance systems. Also on board in every Enyaq is Front Assist including Predictive Cyclist Protection, Predictive Pedestrian Protection, Collision Avoidance Assist and Turn Assist. Lane Assist (basic), Side Assist incl. Rear Traffic Alert and Exit Warning, Attention and Drowsiness Assist and Crew Protect Assist are also always included as standard. Adaptive Lane Assist is part of the optional Travel Assist, now enhanced by the use of swarm data collected from Volkswagen Group vehicles. The Enyaq continuously downloads detailed maps of its surroundings, created by vehicles that have previously driven through the area. This data, protected by two-phase anonymisation, increases the system's effectiveness and adaptability in various driving situations. Travel Assist also includes Adaptive Cruise Control, operational at all speeds, along with Traffic Jam Assist and Emergency Assist.
