Skoda Previews The Coupe Iteration Of The Enyaq iV Ahead Of Its 2022 Debut

• Other than a sloping roof, the Enyaq iV Coupe looks largely similar to the SUV despite the camouflage.

• Standard features will include a 13-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 5.3-inch digital cockpit, LED ambient lighting, and an optional head-up display.

• Delivers up to 265PS, and has rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drivetrain options.

• Boasts a WLTP-claimed range in excess of 535km.

Back in September 2020, Skoda had unleashed its first electric SUV, the Enyaq iV, based on the Volkswagen Group’s MEB EV platform and rivaling the VW ID.4. Fast forward a year, and the Czech carmaker has teased a coupe version of the electric SUV, set for an early 2022 debut. Skoda has also spilled the beans on what to expect out of the Enyaq iV Coupe.

For starters, the model teased may be wrapped in heavy camouflage, but it's clear that the Enyaq iV Coupe will largely resemble its  SUV counterpart, despite the sloping roofline giving it a coupe feel. In terms of dimensions, it is only 4mm longer and 1mm taller than the SUV at 4653mm (length) and 1617mm (height). Its width and wheelbase remain identical to the SUV at 1879 mm and 2765mm.

While Skoda has yet to give a glimpse of the interior, the features that have been revealed hint that it'll likely retain the majority of the SUV’s cabin. On offer is a large 13-inch infotainment system, a 5.3-inch digital cockpit, a panoramic sunroof, an optional augmented reality head-up display, dual-zone climate control and LED ambient lighting.

Under the hood, Skoda has revealed two battery options as well as three powertrain variants with rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel drivetrains. Here are the detailed specifications:

As for range, Skoda claims the 80 variant allows for more than the WTLP-claimed 535km. This exceeds the Enyaq iV SUV which garnered 510km of range from the same variant. Besides, the Enyaq iV Coupe allows for DC fast charging up to 125 kW. 

Expect more details on the Skoda Enyaq iV Coupe to surface ahead of its 2022 debut. As for India, The carmaker is currently working on rolling out the facelifted Kodiaq by the end of this year as well as introducing a successor to the Rapid entry-level sedan. So it's unlikely that the Enyaq or its coupe counterpart will arrive anytime soon.
