Skoda Enyaq iV 2021.

New electric crossover Skoda Enyaq iV 2021.
The Czech company Skoda has completely declassified its first electric crossover, which bears the name Skoda Enyaq iV.

The new crossover Skoda Enyaq iV 2021 model year will differ not only in its modern electronics, but also in a fairly wide variety of versions.

The car is equipped with three different sized batteries, five engine power options, as well as two types of drives (rear and front). This variety of equipment will satisfy the needs of many customers.

Already from September 1, 2020, orders for the new Skoda Enyaq iV electric crossover have begun in many countries. First, the Founders Edition will go into mass production, with a total of 1,895 copies.

These versions will be distinguished by their false radiator grille, equipped with illumination, leather trim, as well as a special body kit and 21-inch wheels.

The assembly of this new product from Skoda will be carried out only at the main plant of the Czech automobile company, which is located in Mlada Boleslav.

Skoda Enyaq iV 2021 is the only model built on the MEB platform. The price for the new product will start at 3,540,000 rubles (40,400 euros) in the basic configuration on the Czech car market.

As for the appearance of this crossover in our Russian market, we should not expect it in the near future. To begin with, the necessary demand for cars of this type must be formed on the Russian automotive market.

Exterior Skoda Enyaq iV 2021

Crossover Skoda Enyaq iV 2021 received approximately the same overall dimensions as Skoda Kodiaq. The crossover is 4,649 mm long, 1,879 mm wide and 1,616 mm high. The wheelbase of the car is 2,765 mm.

The vehicle’s appearance is characterized by its sculptural surfaces and faceted shapes. The silhouette looks more like a classic station wagon. The luggage compartment, thanks to a decent rear body kit, is at least 585 liters. As for aerodynamics, it is not outstanding here, the drag coefficient is 0.27.

Now let’s pay a little attention to the crossover’s front optics. LED optics are installed on the car, but for a certain surcharge it is possible to get matrix headlights, which are equipped with automatic beam correction depending on the readings of the front view camera. The high beam modules themselves consist of 24 diodes, which have an individual control function.

The false radiator grille received vertical slats. As an additional option, the grille provides a Crystal Face illumination, as well as headlights that react to door locking or the owner’s approach. This function is called Coming / Leaving Home.

At the rear, the car is equipped with side lights with dynamic sections, a massive spoiler, a gray painted diffuser and the SKODA lettering on the luggage compartment lid.

The rails and side glazing frames will be made either in chrome, or painted in matt black or glossy color. I would also like to note the variety of disks from 18 to 21-inch. The body of the crossover also received 9 different shades, and 7 of them are metal.

Interior Skoda Enyaq iV 2021

The developers of the new electric crossover Skoda Enyaq iV 2021 model year faced many different challenges. They endowed the crossover with the most advanced equipment — this is a 10 or 13-inch display of the multimedia system, which is located in the center of the front panel.

I would also like to note the presence of wireless connection of various gadgets to the Android Auto and Apple CarPlay interfaces, as well as the function of voice and gesture recognition, and now it is possible to remotely control using a smartphone.

The instrument panel is installed digital with a 5.3-inch display. In addition, a head-up display is also installed, which, in turn, displays tips from the assistant and navigator systems.

Electronic assistants include:

 system of avoiding unexpected obstacles on the road (Collision Avoidance Assist);

 collision avoidance system when turning left (Turn Assist);

 system of warning about danger when leaving the car (Exit Warning);

 crossover preparation system for a possible impact (Proactive Crew Protect Assist);

 a system for overcoming problem sections of the road using these online services (Travel Assist);

 system of parallel or perpendicular parking, and also remotely (Park Assist);

In addition to the equipment already listed, a 2-zone climate control, digital radio, heated steering wheel, a rear view camera, a keyless entry system in a car, a Kessy Go engine start system, and an advanced Canton audio system, which includes 12 loudspeakers, inductive charging of smartphones, availability of USB-C ports and 230 Volt sockets and an electric drive for the luggage compartment lid.

The interior is available in leather or fabric with polyester fibers. The luggage compartment of the car is equipped with a raised floor, which contains convenient niches. In addition to all this, the rear doors received retractable curtains.
