Clever tips for optimising the ŠKODA ENYAQ iV’s range in winter

› ŠKODA’s all-electric #suv can drive more than 520 kilometres on a single charge in the WLTP cycle
› Simple steps can minimise the reduction in range when it’s cold outside
› Optional heat pump and seat and steering wheel heating for greater efficiency and comfort through the winter months

Mladá Boleslav, 20 December 2021 – The all-electric ŠKODA #enyaqiv boasts efficient drive technology and outstanding aerodynamics in its segment. This enables long-distance ranges of more than 520 kilometres in the WLTP cycle. Outside temperatures between 20 
and 30 °C are ideal for efficiency. However, the range of electric vehicles is reduced in winter when electricity from the battery is needed, for example, to heat the interior and keep the batteries at the correct temperature. With the right steps and equipment options, the 
reduction in range at low temperatures can easily be minimised.

Axel Andorff, Head of MEB Projects says, “Driving in winter places high demands on modern electric vehicles like the ŠKODA #enyaqiv. While a model with a combustion engine uses the engine’s waste heat to warm the interior, the energy required for this in an electric vehicle comes from the traction battery. The thermal management of the battery also consumes electricity, which is why the range is reduced. However, by improving the battery temperature control using new software, the optional heat pump and a few simple steps the driver can take, the winter reduction in range can be greatly minimised.”

The ŠKODA #enyaqiv has an impressive range, making it suitable for everyday use and longdistance journeys. For example, the #enyaqiv 80 with an 82-kWh lithium-ion battery can travel more than 520 kilometres on a single charge (according to the WLTP cycle). When it is cold, however, the range of electric vehicles is reduced since the battery must be kept within an optimal temperature window by a sophisticated thermal management system. Energy from the battery is used for this as well as for heating the interior. Unlike models with combustion engines, electric models cannot use waste heat for this purpose. The heat pump, which is available as an option for 
the #enyaqiv, offers a solution; it compresses CO2 to produce warm air, which heats the interior without drawing energy from the battery.
