The range of the compact electric SUV, the Škoda Elroq, is expanding with the sporty RS version. It boasts outstanding driving dynamics and an attractive design with details typical of RS models. At the same time, it offers excellent range and the practicality that all Škoda vehicles are known for.
The new Škoda Elroq RS is among the most dynamic models from the Mladá Boleslav-based carmaker. Its twin electric motors deliver a system output of 250 kW, enabling the Elroq RS to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.4 seconds.
The Elroq RS is equipped with several enhancements to ensure a thrilling driving experience. The front axle features high-performance brakes with red-painted two-piston callipers. The Elroq RS also comes with progressive steering, and the chassis is specifically tuned for this variant to emphasize its sporty driving character. This is further supported by selectable driving modes, including the new "Traction" mode, which optimizes the all-wheel drive system.
The Elroq RS gets a standard sports chassis, lowered by 15 mm at the front and 10 mm at the rear. On the Czech market, the Elroq RS is available with adaptive DCC chassis, enhancing both the sporty feel and driving comfort. The software-controlled stabilizers allow for a wide range of damper settings, and in individual mode, the driver can choose from 15 different characteristics.
The electric SUV is powered by a battery with a capacity of 84 kWh (79 kWh usable), providing a WLTP range of over 550 km. Thanks to a charging capacity of 185 kW, the battery can be recharged from 10% to 80% in approximately 26 minutes.
First RS in Modern Solid
The compact electric SUV is the first RS model from Škoda to feature the brand’s new Modern Solid design language. The glossy black Tech-Deck Face grille blends perfectly with the signature black RS details, including window trims, roof rails, Škoda lettering on the bonnet and liftgate, and exterior mirror covers.
The Elroq RS also features distinctive front and rear bumpers with a reflective strip stretching across the rear´s entire width. RS badges are prominently displayed, and the sporty design is further enhanced by lightweight alloy wheels of up to 21 inches with aero wheel covers, available exclusively for the RS version. Tinted rear windows add to the elegant appearance. Customers can choose from a range of colours, with the exclusive Mamba Green shade available exclusively for the RS variant.
The RS concept continues inside the cabin, which features the exclusive RS Lounge interior. It is dominated by black upholstery made from Suedia material with lime green stitching and carbon-look trim. The three-spoke sports steering wheel is wrapped in perforated leather with matching lime green stitching and features an RS badge. For dynamic driving, the sports seats with integrated headrests provide excellent support. The interior’s sporty look is further complemented by stainless steel pedal covers.
Cutting-Edge technology and practical features
As the flagship version of the compact electric SUV, the Elroq RS not only offers the practicality typical of Škoda but also premium equipment. The luggage compartment provides 470 litres of storage, and numerous Simply Clever features enhance everyday usability. The model includes a virtual pedal for hands-free trunk access, a state-of-the-art infotainment system with a 13-inch touchscreen, a 5-inch digital cockpit, and wireless phone charging.
The Elroq RS also comes with the latest version of the KESSY keyless entry system, which automatically unlocks the car when the key comes within 1.5 meters and closer and locks it when it moves more than 2.5 metres away. A new feature of the model is remote parking via a mobile phone, allowing parking manoeuvres to be controlled through the MyŠkoda app.
