Overview

The Skoda Enyaq is the thinking family electric SUV: spacious, comfortable and easy to live with. This 77 kWh version offers around 286 hp, a 0-60 mph time of about 6.7 seconds and up to roughly 348 miles of WLTP range, enough for genuine long-distance work. The cabin is a highlight, with quality materials, clever storage and a massive 585 litre boot that embarrasses many larger SUVs. Ride comfort is excellent and the driving experience is calm rather than sporty. The infotainment system is logical if not the fastest, and physical climate shortcuts are welcome. It is pricier than an MG or a base Model Y, but the Enyaq counters with superior comfort and build feel. Rivals include the Tesla Model Y, Kia EV6 and its VW Group sibling the ID.4. For buyers prioritising space and serenity over outright pace, the Enyaq is arguably the best all-rounder in the class.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Skoda Enyaq reliable?

The Enyaq scores well in owner surveys, with the electric drivetrain proving dependable and few serious faults reported. Occasional software glitches are the main gripe and are usually fixed by updates. Skoda dealers are generally rated well for service.

What is the real-world range of the 77 kWh Enyaq?

Expect around 280-310 miles in mixed driving against the 348-mile WLTP figure. It is one of the more efficient large electric SUVs, helped by good aerodynamics. Winter and high motorway speeds remain the biggest range thieves.

How big is the Enyaq boot?

A generous 585 litres with the seats up, rising to over 1,700 litres folded flat. It beats the Tesla Model Y on paper for the main boot and swallows prams, dogs and holiday luggage easily. The wide, square opening helps with bulky items.

Is the Enyaq good for long journeys?

Yes, it is one of the best electric family cars for distance work: comfortable seats, a quiet cabin, strong range and fast enough rapid charging. Route planning via the navigation takes the stress out of charging stops. Rear passengers get generous legroom too.
