FINALLY ‼️ New 2025 Skoda Karoq Revealed - An affordable SUV that provides decent value!

Skoda is actively working on incorporating its vRS performance sub-brand into its growing lineup of electric vehicles. This may potentially include a high-performance variant of the first model in the lineup, the Elroq.

Skoda currently lacks specific plans for additional performance models following the introduction of its initial all-electric vRS vehicles, the Enyaq and Enyaq Coupé, last year. However, in an exclusive interview with Auto Express, Skoda CEO Klaus Zellmer stated that the response to those vehicles has "validated" the concept of high-speed electric technology being associated with a logo and brand known for its performance hatchbacks.

"vRS is undeniably a crucial component of our future," Zellmer affirmed to us. "The Enyaq is an exceptional high-end vehicle in our lineup, with four-wheel drive and approximately 300bhp, making it arguably the most desirable car we offer." Although the price is elevated, it is a worthwhile investment in terms of performance relative to its cost.

Zellmer refrained from explicitly confirming the existence of an Elroq vRS. However, considering that this particular model will share numerous crucial elements with the two Enyaqs, such as the MEB platform with an identical wheelbase, as well as the motors, batteries, and even certain body panels, it appears highly likely that it will be made available in a more powerful variant. Our unique image combines the official Elroq sculpture with design elements inspired by the current Enyaq vRS.

The Elroq vRS will have identical specifications to other vehicles that share the same foundation. This is particularly notable because the Elroq vRS will be released before the anticipated update of the platform, known as MEB+, by the VW Group, which is projected to occur in 2026.

Therefore, it is reasonable to anticipate that an Elroq vRS will be equipped with a 77kWh battery and two motors that provide a total of 295bhp and 460Nm of torque. The vehicle should have the ability to accelerate from 0 to 62mph in under six seconds. Additionally, due to the Elroq's smaller size, it is expected to surpass the Enyaq's stated range of 309 miles. The smaller size of the Elroq may provide Skoda's engineers with an opportunity to address a specific criticism of the Enyaq vRS, namely enhancing the agility and engagement for the driver.

The incorporation of established systems should expedite the development of the Elroq vRS, allowing for a possible introduction within one year after the standard model's release. The anticipated release date for the vehicle is in 2025, and it is expected to have a price of approximately £45,000, which is £10,000 higher than the starting price of a smaller-battery, rear-wheel-drive Elroq.
