What's the story

Czech automaker SKODA has revealed its ENYAQ COUPE RS iV SUV. It will go on sale later this year. As for the highlights, the four-wheeler bears a head-turning look and an upmarket cabin loaded with a bevy of tech-based features. It draws power from an electric powertrain and promises a range of up to 545km on a single charge.

Context

Why does this story matter?

The ENYAQ COUPE RS iV is SKODA's first RS car without a combustion engine and is also the brand's most powerful production model. The four-wheeler should attract a lot of buyers in the global markets and will rival the likes of the Volkswagen ID.5 GTX. If the vehicle arrives in India, the competition in the electric four-wheeler segment will be raised.

SKODA ENYAQ COUPE RS iV has a sloping roofline, a sculpted bonnet, an illuminated "Crystal Face" grille with 131 LEDs, a wide air dam, and sleek matrix LED headlights. It is flanked by blacked-out B-pillars, indicator-mounted ORVMs, and 18- to 21-inch wheels. A shark-fin antenna, a raked windscreen, and wrap-around LED taillamps grace the rear. It is offered in a Mamba Green shade.
