Skoda Auto has revealed the 2025 Enyaq EV for international markets, bringing significant improvements over the previous model. The e-SUV has received its first major update, embracing Skoda's Modern Solid design language alongside a reimagined interior, better aerodynamic performance, an enhanced feature set, and an increased range. After debuting this design with the Skoda Elroq in October 2024, the carmaker has extended it to the refreshed Enyaq and Enyaq Coupe models.

A key improvement is the redesigned Tech-Deck Face, which significantly boosts aerodynamic efficiency. The Enyaq’s drag coefficient has been reduced from 0.264 to 0.245, while the Enyaq Coupe’s has improved from 0.234 to 0.225. The updated horizontal four-eyed LED headlights seamlessly integrate with the Tech-Deck Face, and the high-end LED Matrix headlights include an illuminated Light Band for a unified look.
The bonnet now features a Skoda wordmark in Unique Dark Chrome, replacing the classic emblem, with the same finish applied to parts of the bumpers. A new metallic colour, Olibo Green, joins the lineup, which offers a choice of two standard hues and seven metallic shades.
New Skoda Enyaq, Enyaq Coupe: Powertrain
The Enyaq continues to offer two battery options and three powertrain setups. The Enyaq 60 features a 59kWh battery paired with a 201bhp electric motor, providing a driving range of up to 431 km. For increased capacity, the Enyaq 85 comes with a 77kWh battery and a 282bhp motor, allowing for a maximum range of 588 km.
The Enyaq 85x, designed with all-wheel drive, adds a motor to the front axle but retains the same 282bhp output as the 85 variant. However, its range is slightly reduced to 559 km. Charging speeds vary, with the Enyaq 60 supporting a maximum rate of 165kW, while the Enyaq 85 can charge at up to 175kW, ensuring quick and efficient recharging.

Skoda has revamped the interiors of the Enyaq and Enyaq Coupe, placing a stronger emphasis on sustainability. The lineup now features six unique Design Selection interior themes.
The Lodge variant showcases a refreshed palette of materials and paint jobs, highlighted by bold orange seatbelts and contrasting stitching. The seats are upholstered in TechnoFil, a sustainable fabric made from 75% ECONYL fibres, derived from recycled sources like fishing nets, old carpets, and fabric scraps. The Lounge variant also sees updates, with dark grey upholstery combining faux leather and Suedia material, complemented by subtle light green stitching.
The Suite interior pairs black natural and faux leather with brown stitching, while the Eco Suite features cognac-coloured leather tanned with olive leaf extracts. Meanwhile, the Sportline version offers integrated headrest seats upholstered in black faux leather and Suedia, accented with grey stitching for a sporty finish.
