Skoda has announced that it is working on a design refresh for the Skoda Enyaq iV, the first electric vehicle based on the Volkswagen Group’s MEB platform. This will take place in 2025, and will be accompanied by an update for the pure-electric Skoda Enyaq Coupe iV. The new Skoda Enyaq iV and the new Skoda Enyaq Coupe iV will be two of the six Skoda electric cars debuting by 2026.
Design
Embodying the new ‘Modern Solid’ design language, the new Skoda Enyaq iV will be visibly more sophisticated than the current model. At Skoda’s Let’s Explore event on April 25, 2023, chief designer Oliver Stefani said this theme is about a new front, functional proportions, solid volumes, and simplified shapes.


The new Skoda Enyaq iV will have a tougher and more aggressive exterior. At the front, it should feature split headlamps, with the DRLs placed horizontally in a curved housing just below the hood and the main lights positioned vertically below them. The closed panel that separates the upper lights is expected to be notably slim in the same manner. An A-shaped section on the bumper would house the functional air intake. The central part of the hood is expected to have a wider indentation to accommodate the brand new block-lettered logo.
On the sides, we expect a sleek greenhouse, large wheels, pronounced shoulders, and a sloping roofline on the new Skoda Enyaq iV, quite similar to the current vehicle. At the rear, a new bumper and newly designed, sleek tail lamps should give the EV a fresh look.
Specifications
The new Skoda Enyaq iV should be based on Volkswagen Group’s upcoming MEB+ platform, an upgraded version of the MEB platform. EVs based on the MEB+ platform can deliver WLTP ranges of up to 435 miles and accept charging at up to 200 kW, representing a marked improvement over the existing platform.

MEB+ models can return a higher range and charge quicker thanks to batteries made of new unit cells (unified cells), Volkswagen Passenger Cars CEO Thomas Schäfer said during the company’s Annual Media Call on March 15, 2023. The MEB+ platform will bring performance upgrades as well.
With the current Enyaq iV delivering a WLTP range of up to 543 km (337 miles), Skoda may target a WLTP range of over 600 km (373 miles) for the 2025 Enyaq iV. We expect the 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) acceleration time of the RS variant to be closer to six seconds instead of the current model’s 6.5 seconds. The 2025 Enyaq Coupe iV would have a slightly higher range and be even quicker.
Release date

As stated at the beginning of the story, the new Skoda Enyaq iV and new Skoda Enyaq Coupe iV will have their world premiere in 2025. While the model is not coming stateside, the U.S. should get the new VW ID.4 facelift a year earlier.
TopElectricSUV says
The Enyaq iV’s spacious and comfortable interior, quality materials, and its powertrain’s smooth and quiet operation are the SUV’s biggest strengths. Skoda should aim to enhance these features while minimizing energy consumption, fitting a more responsive infotainment system, and bolstering the performance of the vRS model in the 2025 model.
