Skoda has cut prices of its most powerful electric car – the Enyaq RS mid-size family SUV – by $10,000 to clear the last 30 examples of the outgoing model ahead of an updated version due in the New Year.
The new special-offer price of $66,990 drive-away is $10,000 cheaper than the current nationwide offer listed on the Skoda website.
Compared to the original price for the Enyaq RS a year ago – $83,990 plus on-road costs, or closer to $90,000 drive-away – the limited-time offer is more than $20,000 cheaper.
It is now cheaper than a comparable Tesla Model Y Long Range, which is priced from $72,000 to $76,400 drive-away, depending on the state of registration.
The run-out Enyaq RS is powered by dual electric motors developing 250kW, fed by a 77kWh battery pack rated for a 530km driving range in European WLTP lab testing, and a 5.5-second zero to 100km/h acceleration time.
So far this year, Skoda has reported 223 Enyaqs as sold, including 57 in October.
Skoda is offering the Enyaq RS deal until the end of November at "select Skoda dealerships" – assumed to be those with remaining stock – alongside up to $10,000 off "selected Skoda demonstrators".
It is also offering "up to $5000 off" Model Year 2024 examples of the previous-generation Kodiaq RS seven-seater.
Prices of the updated Enyaq range start from $54,990 drive-away for the 60 Select, rising to $63,990 drive-away for the long-range 85 Sportline, and $68,990 drive-away for the 85 Sportline Coupe.
