The Enyaq iV and Enyaq Coupe iV will be the largest electric automobiles in the Czech firm’s line-up, with Skoda CEO Thomas Schafer outlining that the company’s next three EVs will be smaller models and that a seven-seat electric automobile is not on the cards – for now.
Speaking at the launch of the Enyaq iV Coupe, Schafer said that “The Enyaq iV family is only the start of our e-mobility campaign. We already have three more electric vehicles on the way that will be introduced in the coming years.”

Asked if we could see a seven-seat electric automobile in Skoda’s line-up Schafer commented, “Never say never. One step after another we promised this week – we love the Enyaq and that’s the priority for us.”

This points towards Skoda’s next three EVs entering into lower market segments than its Enyaq iV.
Earlier this year, Skoda filed a trademark for the ‘Elroq’ nameplate, possibly pointing to a small electric SUV similar in size to the brand’s combustion-engined Karoq. The remaining two model names should also start with an “E,” as Skoda carves out its naming convention for its EVs.
All three EVs should also be based on a version of the Volkswagen Group’s MEB platform, some possibly on the MEB entry platform being developed for supermini sized electric cars.
