Skoda Enyaq iV 2021 Review: A new benchmark in electric SUV affordability | WhichEV 

Hurray, finally someone has reviewed the base model rather than a fully loaded '80' model!! I would definitely lay out the Crazy Golf course in the boot :D You're the first non-German reviewer to know how to release the rear boot cover!! Missed the Ice Scraper though! I saw Apple Carplay on the screen, but not Android Auto. Doesn't have it? I wonder whether any of the Options can be added after purchase?

Thank you. Would like to see more basic car reviews rather than fully loaded press cars as most of us are price restricted so more true to life.

I ordered mine yesterday - it’s gorgeous and so much car for your money!

Have my 60 suite nav on order nice to see the basic car,you forgot to mention privacy glass is a extra in a pack also! I had the 100 kw upgrade and the rear parking camra and front sensors as an option with bright silver paint A free upgrade was 20 inch wheels and Chrome brightwork

Very nice review. I live in Ireland and I got the 80 Iv. I did not spec it myself as the garage had done it. I would have to wait over six months to spec one myself. So it came with Eco suite, 3 zone climate pack, family pack and tow hitch preparation but not the hitch. Here this car costs €56,000 which includes the 3 year service pack that is not an option you just have to get it. There is a €5K government grant for and EV under €60K and the garage applies for that for you. There is also a €600 grant for a home charger. Got the letter from Škoda about a week later on that service pack and it cost €1250 with 3 yearly services at 20,000 Kms whichever comes first so 60,000 kms altogether but a nice surprise was that it includes a full set of tyres over the 3 years. I totally agree with you as the options are crazy and I would have gone for the upgrade to 125KW charging capability if I could have. I love the car so far and one surprise for me is that the car will slow itself down when travelling from one speed zone to a lower speed zone. Of course you can override that by pressing the accelerator but if you get caught speeding you can only blame yourself. That cup holder in the front is adjustable and that larger hook in the boot is actually to hold the emergency triangle which the garage don’t put in until you are taking delivery so can’t blame you for missing that. Like your style of review so have subscribed 👍.

Thanks for the review. As i understand from the review this doesn't have the additional sound proofing option on the long option list? Is the noise insulation good?

Great in-depth review...really helpful. May seem a strange question...does the hatch when raised protect from the elements like the Skoda Yeti does so well ?.

Did you know you can make the cup holder bigger by moving the central divider?

I was pleasantly surprised to hear Skoda now have 75'000 orders for the Enyaq......

Can you set it to go in "B" as default instead of pressing it back twice all the time?

Great honest review as for the car looks good but to many extras options which run up the cost of a basic car 😡😡😡😡

Took us four days to work out which extras we wanted. Have a great car ordered for £36,720. Going to run it for free by charging up at Tesco!

How did you manage to gloss over the cruise control without grumbling about options again? :D

Got this on order but I have been blown away by the Hyundai Ioniq 5. Very tough call😬

What’s ‘Benchark’?

Looks better than vw and mainly is bigger not sure if Hyundai is better, probably faster changing 5 years warranty.. The only down side is that cameras, sensors and automatic opening boot should be standard, 2012 Range Rover Evoque got these 9 years ago so it should be standard in 2021 even 360 ° Cameras.. That would attract buyers to consider el. cars, not to mention safety features like side automatic lifting before crash from side, you can get much better specs for £30K for petrol cars, el cars will be value for money in 3 years , I am also wondering if it has got a remote control heater in order to pre heat your car before driving in winter?

What is the color of the car?

Enyaq’s great, but I’d only consider an 80 and well specced. Makes it pricier but it’d have to be that way!

I looked at it and ended up at GBP45k - it's not a cheap alternative to the ID.4 at that number.

Need the heat pump in the UK.

British coins? Euro coins not able to fit in there?

Just buy the Id4 - same car but better looking!

Wait till you want to trade the car in and the salesman is flicking through that little black book, all those extras won't mean squat.

It’s not cheaper than an ID4

Sounds awful lot of money for this car. Wish I hadn't sold my beetle...

Skoda had a blank sheet and a bespoke ev platform - so they make a car just as bloated and ugly as their ICE offerings; the Koreans are showing everyone what can be done with their latest offerings. Love the 'Ryanair' comment - spot on.
