The global rollout of the Enyaq iV is one of the main priorities, along with a coupe-styled version likely to get the &#8220;GT&#8221; moniker. There&#8217;s much more to come on the EV front from the Mlad\u00e1 Boleslav brand beyond its MEB-based electric SUVs.<\/p>\n<p>Company CEO Thomas Sch\u00e4fer revealed there are plans for a smaller and cheaper electric vehicle that will also be underpinned by the same MEB platform. While he didn&#8217;t go into any details, other than saying he&#8217;ll try to convince parent company VW Group to build the car at home in the Czech Republic, the car in question will likely be Skoda&#8217;s variant of the <a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/2020\/12\/16\/test-drive-volkswagen-id-3\/\">Volkswagen ID.3<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Following the launch of a compact electric hatchback, Skoda will prepare an entry-level EV to serve as a direct replacement of the Citigo-e iV. The A-segment car is expected to ride on the MEB-Lite architecture <a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/2021\/03\/22\/2025-seat-electric-city-car-teaser\/\">SEAT has been tasked to develop<\/a>, with the first cars coming out in 2025. The VW core brand is likely getting an ID.1 model, and Audi could also launch an equivalent model.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5319\" src=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Skoda-Enyaq-iV-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Skoda-Enyaq-iV-1.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Skoda-Enyaq-iV-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the long run, Skoda aims to introduce a different electric vehicle about the same size as the Octavia, the firm\u2019s best-selling car ever. Meanwhile, the Czech brand is going green in more ways than one as aside from an EV agenda, it&#8217;s making the car production process cleaner, with a relevant example being the Vrchlab\u00ed plant as this has been CO2 neutral since the end of last year.<\/p>\n<p>Its combustion-engined cars are also becoming less harmful to the environment considering the Karoq and Kodiaq SUVs have been officially confirmed to go through facelifts this year and it&#8217;s likely the two will get a plug-in hybrid powertrain. The Octavia and Superb already come as iV-branded PHEVs.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: Skoda<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Skoda organized its annual press conference earlier today to talk about its performance in a coronavirus-impacted 2020 and also provide an insight into this year.
