Škoda Vision RS: the future is hybrid-vegan

Skoda Vision RS

The striking Škoda Vision RS concept study represents the view of the Škoda brand into the not-so-distant future. And it partially reveals that one of the future models will definitely be in the golf class. The dynamic language of the forms of the Škoda Vision RS concept, hybrid technologies and special attention and care for the environment with the use of sustainably produced and vegan materials indicate that Škoda does not want to be just a "Czech" Škoda in the future. Moreover, it also wants to dictate trends.

We will witness it in the not too distant future Damages Vision RS, which will plug-in hybrid with a 1.5-liter TSI engine with a power of 110 kW (150 hp) and an electric motor with a power of 75 kW (102 hp). Together, they will develop a system power of 180 kW (245 hp), with which it will Skoda Vison RS from a city to 100 km/h in 7.1 seconds, and it will take 8.9 seconds to accelerate from 80 to 120 km/h. The total CO2 emission will be only an exceptional 33 g/km. Exclusively with electric drive and thus the local emission-free vehicle will be able to drive up to 70 km. The lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 13 kWh can be charged at the charging station via cable in two and a half hours. An alternative will definitely be possible Shame on Vision RS can also be charged via a household electrical outlet or while driving with energy regeneration.

A special feature of this study Skoda Vision RS is a shimmering polish with crystals Xirallic  provides a gentle blue shine to the brilliant white Škoda Vision RS. The natural components of the varnish reflect heat and thus lower the interior temperature. Striking contrasts to the white paint are created by the numerous black carbon elements on the body, which are definitely made of a high-tech material that is often used in racing cars.


This time, Škoda paid special attention to materials that are "vegan", as the upper part of the seemingly floating, Alcantara-clad seats uses carbon textile made from fully recycled polyester yarn. Czech flags on the sides of the seats evoke memories of the founding of Czechoslovakia 100 years ago. Another example of a sustainable approach are the Piñatex mats, i.e. material with a carbon woven structure. The fibers of the high-performance material are obtained from pineapple leaves. Well, all vegans can be extremely enthusiastic. After all, they will be able to enjoy the "non-meat Škoda" to the fullest.

Škoda somehow wants to chart its own bolder path from under the wings of its corporate brothers (VW, Audi, Seat...). That's also why it's nice to see a different and rather brave approach. In the future, Škoda does not want to be just a "Czech" Škoda. Moreover, it shows much greater ambitions. The commitment to veganism is also commendable. You have to be first somewhere.
