\u0160koda has released details of their first electric vehicle and it’s to be a SUV. It will be called “Enyaq”. The name is derived from the Irish name \u2018enya\u2019, meaning \u2018source of life\u2019. Enya itself comes from the Irish Gaelic word \u2018Eithne\u2019, meaning \u2018essence\u2019, \u2018spirit\u2019 or \u2018principle\u2019. The \u2018source of life\u2019 symbolises the car manufacturer\u2019s entry into the new era of electromobility and is in line with the \u0160koda brand’s history claim: \u2018Driven by inventiveness \u2013clever ideas since 1895\u2019.<\/p>\n

It’s to be built on the Volkswagen Group\u2019s Modular Electrification Toolkit (MEB) platform and will be the first car from the brand to be built on this platform.. With its first all-electric SUV, \u0160koda is establishing a new nomenclature that combines the \u2018E\u2019 in reference to electromobility with the \u2018Q\u2019 that characterises the final letter of \u0160koda\u2019s successful SUV family. With the new Enyaq, the Czech car manufacturer is taking another leap into the new era of electromobility in 2020.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Enyaq follows \u0160koda\u2019s well-known SUV nomenclature. Like the names of \u0160koda\u2019s successful SUV models Kodiac, Karoq, and Kamiq,names that have their origins in the language of the Inuit people living in northern Canada and Greenland, \u0160koda combines the future all-electric vehicles based on the MEB with the Irish language. The \u2018E\u2019 at the beginning of the name stands for electromobility whilst the \u2018Q\u2019 at the end creates a clear connection to the virtues of an SUV. The \u0160koda Enyaq is the next of the series of more than ten electric models that will be launched under the \u0160KODA sub-brand by the end of 2022.\"\"<\/p>\n

By 2025, \u0160koda expects all-electric vehicles and models with plug-in hybrid drives to account for 25% of sales. By 2021, the car manufacturer will have invested two billion euros in the development of electric models and a holistic, interconnected ecosystem for modern and environmentally friendly mobility solutions http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
