According to her, the result looks sporty, and even though it’s a grey colour, the car stands out—perhaps even appears a bit aggressive. The RS is, after all, the most powerful version of the Škoda Elroq and has the right credentials for bold performance. Its dual-motor powertrain delivers a system output of 250 kW, allowing the Elroq RS to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds. Yet it still maintains everyday usability, a hallmark of all RS-badged vehicles.
So how did the matte finish on the Elroq RS come about? “We started with our Graphite Grey paint, which is already visually striking and retains its vibrancy even with a matte layer applied,” explains Maria. She adds that not every colour shade works well with a matte finish: “Choosing the base is important because sometimes adding an extra layer can make the result look dull and lifeless.”
