To recap

Skoda’s first dedicated all-electric vehicle is a sound and sensible investment. It’s got some Tesla Model X appeal - but for those who could never afford such a car. Sure, there’s some foibles, but if you’re looking for a spacious, comfortable, decent real-world ranged EV, then the Enyaq is one smooth operator at a competitive price point.
