2025 Skoda Enyaq brings fresh design and improved range

Skoda has released an updated version of its all-electric Enyaq SUV and Enyaq Coupe, bringing a sharper exterior look and a longer driving range.

Since its launch in 2020, the Enyaq has become one of Europe’s most popular EVs, with over 250,000 cars sold. The Enyaq was also Skoda’s first ground-up EV model and is built on the Volkswagen Group’s electric-only MEB platform shared with the VW ID.3, ID.4 and the Audi Q4, as well as the newly launched Skoda Elroq.

Visually, the new Enyaq has been given the Czech carmaker’s new ‘Modern Solid’ design language introduced on the smaller Elroq. This new appearance gives the bestselling Enyaq a more purposeful appearance over the outgoing car.

The biggest visual difference over the previous Skoda Enyaq is the updated front end, which drops the BMW-esque look of its predecessor in favour of an LED-illuminated ‘Light Band’ that houses the running lights and indicators.

In the bottom half of the nose, the headlights create a split-headlight appearance, while a blacked out ‘Tech Deck’ hides a front-mounted radar and camera parking system.

Inside, the updated Skoda Enyaq is largely unchanged. The biggest visual differences are an all-new two or three-spoke steering wheel with Skoda lettering, and an updated 13-inch infotainment display in the middle of the dashboard. Tri-zone climate control, walk-away locking, USB-C ports, and heated front seats are now also standard features across the range.

Skoda has sought to make the Enyaq more efficient than ever through aerodynamic tweaks. The drag co-efficient has been cut from 0.257Cd to 0.245 Cd on the standard SUV, while the Coupe has a Tesla Model Y-beating drag co-efficient of 0.229Cd.

These gains have helped Skoda extract a longer range from the Enyaq. The rear-wheel drive Enyaq 85 and all-wheel drive 85X models return 359 and 332 miles respectively in SUV form. Meanwhile, the slipperier Coupe returns 365 miles with the RWD drivetrain, and 334 miles with the AWD system.

Skoda claims that the recently added 77kWh battery in the 85 and 85X Enyaqs can be charged from 10 percent to 80 percent in just 28 minutes thanks to 175kW charging. The entry-level 60 model with the smaller 59kW battery has a range of 268 miles and can be topped up from 10 percent to 80 percent in 24 minutes via a 160kW charger.

The new Skoda Enyaq is available in three trim levels, the entry-level SE L, the mid-range Edition, and the flagship Sportline. The SUV comes with a grey lower front bumper and door trims to afford it a more upmarket aesthetic. On the Coupe, these design elements are body-coloured.

Aerodynamically-optimised 19 and 21-inch wheels are available across the range, and a performance-focused vRS model is expected to join the Enyaq range at a later date.

Orders open for the updated Enyaq open on 9 January in Skoda’s key European markets with a starting price of €44,000. UK delivery dates and prices have yet to be finalised but we would expect a small increase on the Enyaq’s current starting price of £36,970.
