If you are looking for a unique, eco-friendly, and versatile vehicle that can take you on any adventure, you might want to check out the Skoda Roadiaq. This is not your typical Skoda car, but a student project that transformed a Skoda Enyaq iV SUV into a fully electric camper van.
The Skoda Roadiaq is the result of a collaboration between Skoda and the Secondary School of Mechanical Engineering in Mlada Boleslav, Czech Republic. Every year, Skoda sponsors a student project that challenges young talents to design and build their own car based on an existing Skoda model. This year, the students chose the Skoda Enyaq iV as their base and created a stunning concept that showcases their creativity, skills, and vision.
The Skoda Roadiaq is more than just a modified Skoda Enyaq. It is a completely new vehicle that has been rebuilt from scratch. The students cut off the rear part of the Skoda Enyaq and extended the wheelbase by 30 cm. They also added a new roof, doors, windows, bumpers, lights, and interior. The result is a spacious and comfortable camper van that can accommodate up to four people.
The most impressive feature of the Skoda Roadiaq is its electric powertrain. The students replaced the original engine with an electric motor that delivers 140 kW (190 hp) and 290 Nm of torque. The motor is powered by an 86 kWh battery pack that provides a range of up to 500 km (310 miles) on a single charge. The battery can be recharged in about an hour using a fast-charging station.
The Skoda Roadiaq also boasts a number of smart features that make it ideal for camping and traveling. It has a solar panel on the roof that can generate additional electricity for the battery and the onboard appliances. It has a retractable awning that creates a shaded area outside the vehicle. It has a foldable table and chairs that can be stored in the rear door. It has a refrigerator, a stove, a sink, and a water tank that enable cooking and washing. It has a TV, a sound system, and a Wi-Fi hotspot that offers entertainment and connectivity. It has a bed, a sofa, and a wardrobe that ensure comfort and convenience.

The Skoda Roadiaq is not only functional but also stylish and eye-catching. It has a distinctive design that combines elements of Skoda’s DNA with futuristic touches. It has a striking blue color that contrasts with the black roof and wheels. It has dynamic lines and curves that give it an aerodynamic and sporty look. It has LED headlights and taillights that create a signature light signature. It has Skoda logos on the front and rear that light up when the vehicle is in motion.
The Skoda Roadiaq is not just a car but a dream come true for the students who created it. They spent over 2,000 hours working on the project, overcoming various challenges and learning new skills along the way. They also received guidance and support from Skoda’s experts, who shared their knowledge and experience with them.
The Skoda Roadiaq is not intended for mass production but is an inspiring example of what young minds can achieve when they can express their ideas and passions. It is also a testament to Skoda’s commitment to fostering innovation and education among the next generation of engineers and designers.
