Development of Aerodynamics of the Facelifted Enyaq and Enyaq Coupe Models

Jiri Novak, Skoda Auto

The thesis summarizes the development of aerodynamics of the facelifted Enyaq and Enyaq Coupe models (MY 2025) in the technical development department of Skoda Auto. Through the gradual optimization of selected parts, aerodynamics has been improved, with a positive impact on the car's range. Several features and modifications contributed to improving Enyaq's already good aerodynamics, such as the new front end with the Modern Solid design, which features a slimmer Tech-Deck Face with an optimized transition to the hood, sealing the air duct behind the radiator grille, improved flow around the front wheels thanks to new air curtains and new alloy wheels on offer. CFD simulations and validation measurements were widely used during the development.
