Faster Skoda Enyaq vRS on the way...
Skoda is updating the Enyaq vRS promising faster acceleration and more range.
The Skoda Enyaq vRS has been updated for 2024, and even though it retains the same battery, it gains a longer range, and it’s also faster.
The 2024 Enyaq vRS has an extra 41PS of power, thanks to the combined output from the car’s dual motors rising from 299PS to 340PS. This translates to a faster 0-62 mph acceleration time of 5.5 seconds – a second quicker than the previous model – and it means that it’s the most powerful and the fastest accelerating Skoda ever.
However as well as being faster, the Enyaq vRS also gains more range. The coupé has a provisional WLTP range of 340 miles – a 16 mile increase, while the SUV has a range of 336 miles – a 15-mile increase. Just as the 77kWh battery (usable capacity) is retained, so are the previous electric motors – they’ve just been recalibrated, and new power management software has been introduced.
Another improvement is the Enyaq vRS’s maximum charging speed, which has increased from 135kW to an ultra-rapid 175kW. A 10% to 80% charge on a 175kW or faster DC rapid charger will take approximately 28 minutes – an improvement of 8 minutes.
The Enyaq vRS’s infotainment and display system have also both been improved, with a number of screens having been redesigned to be easier to use. The charging and climate screens have been reworked to be clearer and simpler to operate on the move. The navigation graphics have also been redesigned to deliver easier to follow mapping and directions.
The Enyaq vRS’s digital cockpit (located behind the steering wheel) and optional head-up display have also gained new graphics and animations to make them clearer and more intuitive. Equipment levels have also been improved, with new items such as travel assist and speed assist, walk away locking, rear side airbags, rear window blinds, rear USB-C charging ports and tow bar prep.
Skoda offers two optional equipment packs with the vRS model: Advanced and Maxx. Advanced includes a head-up display (HUD), heated rear seats, heated front windscreen and CANTON sound system. Maxx adds electrically adjustable front seats with memory function, power lumbar support and massage function for the driver’s seat, Area view camera, Park assist with trained parking, Dynamic Chassis Control, progressive steering and a 3-spoke leather heated sports multi-function steering wheel with paddles for recuperation level selection. The Advanced package costs £2,035 with the Maxx package available for £3,980.
Ordering for the 2024 MY Skoda Enyaq vRS is due to open before the end October.
