Skoda India is all set to introduce its first EV, the Enyaq iV, for customers in the country. The premium all-electric SUV was spotted during a road test and according to media reports will most likely debut in India by early 2023. The Enyaq iV will be the first EV offering from the Czech automaker, who is exploring opportunities to expand and diversify its portfolio.

The Enyaq iV is Skoda’s first EV to be underpinned by Volkswagen Group’s MEB modular platform. Internationally, the electric SUV is offered in five trim levels, namely 50, 60, 80, 80X and the sporty vRS. The variants are differentiated by the size of the battery pack and the drive system fitted in them.

The Enyaq is a comfortable 5 seater SUV measuring 4649mm in length, which is marginally smaller than the current-gen Skoda Octavia. The four-wheeler follows the brand's latest “Crystal Face” design philosophy, offering an illuminated front grille. The overall design is quite sharp with creases from the front to rear.

Compared to the exterior, the interior of the vehicle is subtle in nature with a lot of modern tech on offer. The safety equipment list includes 9 airbags, ADAS, proactive occupant protection, and crew protection assist along with a slew of other active and passive features.
