Skoda Auto has announced the premiere date of the Enyaq Coupe electric coupe-crossover – January 22, 2022. In this regard, the company distributed a darkened promotional video with a silhouette and exterior fragments of the upcoming novelty. It should be noted here that partially disguised prototypes of the Enyaq Coupe were spotted on public roads back in 2020 .
This is not a completely independent model, but a modification of the Enyaq iV crossover , which has been produced since 2020, the first mass electric Skoda. Up to the B-pillar, the coupe will repeat the regular Enyaq, while the rear is completely new, with a sloping roof.

The external difference from the standard electric crossover will also be a developed aerodynamic body kit – in the front there will be an extended cutout in the lower part. In addition, the car will receive low-profile wheels with increased diameter.
Skoda promises that the Enyaq Coupe will be the most streamlined car in its class, with a drag coefficient of just 0.234. Note that the American electric crossover Tesla Model Y , which belongs to the same class of mid-size coupe-crossovers, has a slightly better indicator – 0.23.
Good streamlining means more energy efficiency and therefore more range per battery charge. Skoda previously reported that the Enyaq Coupe will be able to travel on a single charge up to 535 km, that is, 25 km more than the standard Enyaq iV.
The car will be offered in three motor versions:
with one 177 hp engine, rear-wheel drive;
with one 201 hp engine, rear-wheel drive;
with two 261 hp engines, four-wheel drive.
There will be two batteries to choose from – with a capacity of 62 kW * h and 82 kW * h.
Enyaq is built on the modular MEB platform, which is the basis of all the latest electric vehicles of the Volkswagen Group.
Sales of the Skoda coupe-crossover in the European Union will start in the first quarter of 2022.
