From a pool of 1,800 hopefuls, only six were chosen for a grueling 12-day cycling quest across Sweden. Covering 2,250 kilometers and ascending 20,000 meters, Unmapping Sweden stands as the nation’s most demanding bike race, stretching from Kiruna’s northern reaches to Smygehuk in the south. This event is not just a race; it’s a formidable challenge of mental and physical endurance, stretching the limits of human capability. Witness the riveting tale of these cyclists as they traverse Sweden’s diverse landscapes in a thrilling three-part documentary series.
In the backdrop of this intense race, the Škoda Enyaq 80x, an all-electric, four-wheel drive vehicle, played a crucial role. As a faithful companion throughout the race, this car was instrumental in capturing the journey on film and provided indispensable support during unforeseen challenges. The vehicle impressively weathered varied conditions—from fierce hailstorms to radiant sunshine—maintaining pace and performance even over long distances and between charging stations.
