Skoda Enyaq Review 2025

September 2020

Skoda Enyaq iV priced from £30,450

The new Skoda Enyaq iV will have a range of up to 316 miles and a starting price of £30,450 when it goes on sale later this year.

The electric SUV shares Volkswagen's MEB platform with the upcoming ID.4 electric SUV and is priced in-line with the likes of the Kia e-Niro and Peugeot e-2008. It's closer in size to the Jaguar I-Pace and Ford Mustang Mach-E, though.

Buyers will have a choice of two battery sizes: 62kWh (badged the iV 60) or 82kWh (badged the iV 80). The entry-level 62kWh model is equipped with a 180PS electric motor which powers the rear wheels. It can travel for up to 242 miles on a single charger.

The 82kWh model, which is also rear-wheel drive, uses a 204PS motor and can cover up to 316 miles between charges.

All Enyaq iV models will have a minimum DC rapid charging capability of 50kW as standard. Customers can specify higher 100kW (for 62kWh battery) and 125kW (for 82kWh battery) DC charge rates as options.

In addition to using a standard household 230V socket with 2.3 kW alternating current (AC), the Enyaq iV can be charged at home overnight using a wallbox of up to 7kW. Depending on the battery size, the charging process takes six to eight hours.

When you're out and about, the Enyaq iV can be connected to rapid DC charging points with a charging capacity of up to 125kW. This allows the Enyaq iV to be charged from 10 to 80 per cent in less than 40 minutes.

The Enyaq iV, which starts from £30,450 (including the Government's £3000 Plug-in Car Grant), comes with an extensive list of standard equipment. This includes 19-inch alloy wheels, a 13-inch media system and rear parking sensors. The interior features Skoda's 'Loft' interior trim, including fabric/artificial leather seat coverings and brushed aluminium door panels.

An interior design pack called Suite is available for an extra £1285. This adds leather seats and piano black decor. The Lounge pack, meanwhile, is priced at £1115 and adds light grey leather with mustard yellow stitching.

The more powerful Enyaq iV 80 starts from a post-grant £35,950 and adds chrome detailing, front parking sensors and a rear-view camera. Further standard kit includes a heated steering wheel (with paddles for adjusting the level of regenerative braking), as well as selectable drive modes and navigation.

Available at launch, an Enyaq iV 80 Founders Edition will be available for £46,995. This brings with it 125kW DC charging, 21-inch alloy wheels, an illuminated front grille with LED Crystal face and Matrix LED headlights. It also features a black leather interior design pack as standard.

Orders open for the Skoda Enyaq iV

Skoda will officially open order books for the all-new Enyaq iV, the brand’s first purpose built battery electric vehicle on 10 March 2021. Based on the Volkswagen Group’s modular electrification toolkit (MEB), the highly-awaited all-electric SUV is offered with two battery size options, a new range structure and a new finance offering: Lease&Care.

The new Enyaq iV introduces a new way for customers to perfectly tailor the car to their tastes and requirements. Instead of selecting from traditional trim levels, customers choose the battery size they need, select an interior design and then personalise their vehicle from a comprehensive range of equipment packs and individual options.

From launch, the range consists of two variants; Enyaq iV 60 Nav and Enyaq iV 80 with 62kWh and 82kWh battery packs respectively. Five design selections are available; Loft, Lodge, Lounge, Suite and ecoSuite, all of which offer a different interior look and materials.

Enyaq iV 60 Nav (62 KWh 179 PS) – from £31,085 OTR
The entry-level Enyaq iV comes with a generous equipment list that includes 19-inch Proteus alloy wheels, an infotainment system with satellite navigation and 13-inch screen, rear parking sensors, dual-zone climate control and keyless go. All models also feature ambient interior lighting, multifunction leather steering wheel and Front Assist as standard. In terms of interior trim, all 60 Nav models are equipped with an interior spec called Loft. This features fabric / artificial leather seat facings and brushed aluminium decor panels as standard.

Enyaq iV 80 (82 KWh 204 PS) – from £35,950 OTR
Customers choosing the 82kWh battery pack benefit from an increased standard specification that includes chrome detailing, front parking sensors and a rear-view camera. 80 models also come with a heated two-spoke leather steering wheel that features paddles for setting the levels of regenerative braking, Drive Mode Select and infotainment system with navigation. 80 models also include 19-inch Regulus alloy wheels and, as with the 60 Nav version, the option to upgrade from the standard Loft to Lodge, Lounge, Suite or ecoSuite interiors.

The Enyaq iV also comes with a new finance option that gives owners even greater peace of mind. Lease&Care has been developed by Volkswagen Financial Services specifically for electric car buyers and is a personal lease that includes built-in aftersales packages in one monthly payment.

Enyaq iV customers select their ideal Enyaq iV, choose an initial deposit which can be as little as one monthly payment, choose their annual mileage and select their term of either 24, 36 or 48 months. Customers can then tailor their package by choosing one of three aftersales ‘care’ packages they would like: Small, Medium or Large.

The most affordable Small package covers a customer for essential servicing, which includes all routine manufacturer servicing, brake fluid changes, as well as dust and pollen filters. It also includes access to the Driverline concierge – a dedicated 24/7 service that covers breakdown, recovery and glass care.

The Medium package adds all routine maintenance items, including brake, suspension and cooling system repairs, electric system maintenance, and all fluid top-ups, while the Large package includes tyre replacement and wheel alignment (due to fair wear and tear), puncture repair, geometry check and wheel balance.

Example with ŠKODA Lease&Care Small package

All customers can also select to add on VWFS Rent-a-Car Mobility credits for as little as £16 per month. This gives Enyaq iV owners access to a non-electric vehicle for seven days per year.

At the end of the contract, customers have three choices; renew into another vehicle, extend their contract with the car or hand the car back.

Customers will also be able to finance their new Enyaq iV with a Solutions PCP which comes with the additional option of purchasing the vehicle at the end of the contract term.

All Enyaq iV models have a minimum DC rapid charging capability of 50kW as standard. Customers can specify higher 100kW (for 62kWh battery) and 125kW (for 82kWh battery only) DC charge rates as options.

The Enyaq iV offers customers three charging options. In addition to using a standard household 230V socket with 2.3 kW alternating current (AC), it can be charged at home overnight using a wallbox of up to 7.2kW. Depending on the battery size, the charging process with a 7.2kW wallbox takes approximately 9 hours 30 minutes for the 62 kWh and approximately 13 hours for the 82 kWh battery (both to 100% charge). As a third charging option, the vehicle can be connected to rapid DC charging points with a charging capacity of up to 125 kW. This allows the Enyaq iV 80 to be charged from 10 to 80 per cent in as little as 38 minutes and 35 minutes for the Enyaq iV 60 Nav.

The entry level 62kWh battery model is equipped with a 180PS (132kW) motor that drives the rear wheels through a single-speed transmission. It has a WLTP combined range of up to 256 miles on a single charge. The larger 82kWh model generates 204PS (150kW) and is capable of returning up to 333 miles on a single charge (WLTP).

Measuring 4,649 millimetres long and 1,879 wide, the Enyaq iV delivers the space and practicality customers have come to expect from ŠKODA’s award-winning SUV models. Thanks to its all-electric platform, ŠKODA’s design team has been able to completely reimagine the Enyaq iV’s interior architecture. With the traction battery housed in the floor and a compact motor mounted beneath the boot floor, the Enyaq iV has a cabin unburdened by the packaging compromises of a traditional internal combustion engine car. As a result, occupants can enjoy a spacious interior with a flat floor and a boot that can hold 585-litres of luggage. This can be extended to 1,710 litres with the rear seats folded.

March 2021

Skoda Enyaq iV SportLine priced from £39,900

Comes with an 82kWh battery and can cover up to 327 miles on the WLTP combined cycle. In terms of layout, the Enyaq iV features a rear motor and rear wheel drive with the drive unit combining motor, control electronics and a single-speed gearbox.

The motor generates 204PS and 310Nm of torque and can propel the Enyaq iV SportLine from 0-62mph in 8.5 seconds. Top speed is electronically limited to 99mph. To meet the demands of keen drivers, the SportLine model is equipped with a sports chassis set up as standard. This features a lower ride height (15mm lower and the front, 10mm at the rear) and reduces the centre of gravity for even more agile handling. Drive Mode Select and progressive steering are also standard while Dynamic Chassis Control is available as an option.

The SportLine iV’s grille, window frames, roof rails and rear bumper diffuser are finished in black, as is ŠKODA block lettering and tailgate badges. The striking side skirts are body-coloured and the SportLine iV comes with a unique front apron and badges on the front wings. 20-inch Vega Anthracite alloy wheels complete the look.

The Enyaq SportLine iV comes with full LED Matrix headlights as standard. Each Matrix high beam module features 24 LEDs, which can be controlled individually and enable the driver to have the high beam on at all times without dazzling other road users. This intelligent technology automatically turns off individual segments of the light beam when the camera on the windscreen detects vehicles, as well as people and objects, reflecting the light.

In keeping with ŠKODA’s other SportLine and vRS models, the Enyaq iV SportLine’s upholstery and roof lining are predominantly black. The dashboard is upholstered in a black synthetic leather with grey contrasting stitching and features carbon-effect trims, which provide visual highlights and can also be found on the door panels.

The SportLine Design Selection also includes unique black sports seats with integrated headrests. These are upholstered in Alcantara/Leather and feature grey piping. A three-spoke multifunction leather sports steering wheel comes as standard and allows numerous vehicle functions to be controlled from its buttons and knurled wheels. The leather-covered steering wheel rim features grey contrast stitching, while the lower spoke has a badge bearing the SportLine lettering. The pedal covers come in an aluminium look and further enhance the Enyaq SportLine iV Design Selection.

July 2021

Crystal Face grille option now offered on Skoda Enyaq iV

Taking its inspiration from the Skoda Vision iV concept car, the new grille features more than 130 LEDs that form 18 vertical ribs and a horizontal strip that runs the width of the frame, which is finished in either chrome or black. The Crystal Face has an animated Coming/Leaving Home function and, together with the LED modules for the dipped and high beam in the full LED Matrix headlights and the daytime running lights, creates a unique welcoming light display. The Crystal Face turns on when the headlights are activated and illuminates the road ahead along with the dipped beam lights.

The Crystal Face is included in the Enyaq iV’s Light and View Plus package which can be specified on all Enyaq iV 80 models. The package is priced at £1,675 including VAT for the Enyaq iV 80 (£560 for the Enyaq iV 80 SportLine and 80x SportLine), and, in addition to the Crystal Face, adds full LED matrix beam headlights with variable light distribution, full LED rear lights with variable lighting functions, headlight washers and Dynamic headlight range control, with cornering light.

August 2021

All-wheel-drive Skoda Enyaq iV 80x Sportline added to range

Priced from £46,610, the new model is also the most powerful Enyaq iV to date with an output of 195kW (265PS).

The 80x SportLine is fitted with a second electric motor that drives the front axle. The combined 195kW output of the front and rear motors means that the newest addition to the Enyaq iV range is also the fastest with a 0-62mph time of 6.9 seconds. The 80x model also delivers significantly more torque than the standard rear-wheel drive SportLine model thanks to its twin motor arrangement. The combined torque figure for the 80x SportLine is 425Nm, which provides exceptional levels of agility and acceleration.

In terms of power consumption and range, the 80x SportLine has a WLTP range figure of 303 miles. Official consumption is 3.5 miles per kWh under WLTP test conditions. 80x SportLine models are equipped with 125kW rapid charging capability as standard, which means the newcomer can charge from 0-80% in as little as 38 minutes when connected to a 150kW+ DC rapid charger. A charge from empty to full will take around 13 hours on a domestic wallbox with an output of 7.2kW.

The 80x SportLine is priced from £46,610 OTR and available to order now. First deliveries are expected later this year.

September 2021

Skoda Enyaq iV Founders Edition priced from £46,725

Intended to celebrate the start of Skoda's new era of electrification, just 50 examples of the special edition will be sold in the UK. Based on the 80kWh Enyaq, the Founders Edition comes with 21-inch alloy wheels and can be ordered in Black Magic or Arctic Silver metallic paint finishes.

December 2021

All Skoda Enyaq iV models now feature DC fast charging as standard

Skoda is reducing the time new Enyaq iV owners will spend charging by equipping all new models with upgraded DC fast charging as standard.

The update covers both new Enyaq iV 60 and Enyaq iV 80 models and means that buyers of the 60 can charge at up to 120kW while those choosing the 80 can charge at up to 125kW as standard. Previously, both models had a maximum charging rate of up to 50kW as standard. In real terms this means that the charge time (to 80%) for an Enyaq iV 60 charging at up to 120kW charger is reduced from 55 minutes to 35 minutes. For the Enyaq iV 80, the time is reduced from 1hr 10 minutes to just 38 minutes with up to 125kW DC charging.

August 2022

Skoda Enyaq updated for 2023MY

Skoda is introducing a number of key specification and equipment enhancements to its Enyaq iV range. The updates, which are part of the 2023 Model Year package, include enhancements to the infotainment system, updated battery management system and a revised set of option packages.

All new Enyaq iV models benefit from the latest version of Skoda’s MEB platform software (ME3) which introduces a range of improvements and updates. These include the ability for future updates to the car’s operating software, made over the air (OTA). In addition, the new software includes an upgrade to the navigation system and head-up display along with visual improvements to the heating and ventilation infotainment screens to make the user experience even smoother. Remote Access for three years is now a standard feature on all Enyaq iV models, having previously been an option.

The software update also delivers improvements to the Enyaq iV’s high voltage battery management systems. The changes further reduce electrical losses from the battery to ensure that drivers can maximise their driving range.
