Skoda Enyaq Coupe vRS 2023 extended evaluation

When we decided to test the Skoda Enyaq vRS, our goal was to determine if the vRS badge could make an electric car exciting. After spending a month with the vehicle, we can confidently say that it did not achieve that goal. Adding an extra motor, increasing the power, and incorporating sporty design elements did not result in the same level of excitement that Skoda's vRS line is known for.

However, despite not meeting our expectations for a performance electric vehicle, the Skoda Enyaq vRS still impressed us as a great overall EV. It offers a perfect blend of practicality, performance, and fun, even without the vRS badge. In typical Skoda fashion, it delivers everything you would want from a family crossover, whether it's electric or not.

Visually, the Enyaq vRS Coupé stands out with its unique design. It resembles a slightly oversized saloon car rather than an SUV, adding to its visual appeal.
