Skoda to launch Enyaq EV tomorrow: Specs, range, features and price expectation

Czech auto giant Skoda Auto is gearing up to launch its first electric car in India tomorrow (February 26). The carmaker will introduce the Enyaq electric SUV on Tuesday, foraying into the premium electric vehicle segment.

The Enyaq electric SUV was earlier showcased during the Bharat Global Mobility Expo held in Delhi last month. The electric SUV from Skoda will be launched in India as a Completely Built Unit (CBU) initially. However, Skoda may start manufacturing it locally depending on demands.

The Enyaq electric SUV is based on Skoda Auto’s MEB platform built from the ground-up and developed specially for electric vehicles. The same platform also underpins the likes of Audi Q4 e-tron and Volkswagen ID.4. The Enyaq EV stands 4,648 mm in length, 1,877 mm in width and 1,618 mm in height. It has a wheelbase of 2,765 mm. The electric vehicle, as the dimension suggests, offers a spacious cabin, distinguishing itself from Skoda’s flagship SUV, the Kodiaq, with its two-row configuration.

As far as the design is concerned, the SkodaEnyaq comes with an illuminated grille, sweptback LED headlamps, contrast black inserts, and aero-inspired alloy wheels besides wraparound two-piece LED tail lights, Skoda lettering and a number plate recess on the tailgate, integrated spoiler, and a shark-fin antenna.

Skoda Enyaq will come with several advanced features. These include the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), a 360-degree camera, digital screens for the instrument console and infotainment system and leatherette upholstery in the cabin.
