  • The 2023 Škoda Enyaq can travel up to 532 km (330 miles) per charge, thanks to its large 77 kWh battery, however there's much more to this car than just range.
    In this review, Gav puts the Enyaq through its paces, looking at handling, efficiency and gadgets, as well as answering your questions about the car.
    And if you're keen on cutting your carbon footprint, come and join us at Ecotricity, which is now New Zealand's only climate positive electricity provider! That means by switching today, you're actually turning back the clock on Climate Change, while saving money in the process.

    Even in the 1970s, people at Škoda had interesting ideas, for example for the ‘Škoda 720’ and ‘Škoda 760’ models, which did not make it into production because of the regime of the time.

    Mate, I love your very slight Kiwi-accent! :-) Having lived in NZ for one year in the early 2000s it feels like a short trip down memory-lane. "Heaps" of fun watching your video. It's really done very well! Here in Germany we have to wait about 18 months for an Enyaq right now. Mine is expected to arrive in September and I can't wait too drive it! Greeting to Auckland!

    I got my Enyaq IV80x in October, and I eliminated a lot of extras. As a farmer I needed 4WD & a tow hitch. I didn't get a heat pump (Ireland has a temperate climate) or adaptive cruise control, I wish I could have got rid of lane assist as well, on the small country roads that I drive on its positivity dangerous! I have done 2 very long drives, 800km in France & last week I did 600km towing a box trailer across Ireland and back in the same day, the temperature was at 1 degree C at kick-off. Don't worry you'll soon get bored with auto-park as you can do it much quicker yourself!

    Freaking love a Škoda. I've owned 4 and two of them saved my life in bad crashes. One of those crashes, I drove home, stuck a second hand door and boot on it and continued driving it for 3 more years. Virtually indestructible and brilliant quality. So reliable.
    This is sadly both too late to market and too expensive for me but I would totally take this as my first choice in the appropriate alternate universe.

    I passed my uk driving test in an allegro 48 years ago, with a square ish steering wheel. I intend to lease a Enyaq but here there are 3542 varieties. Thanks for your excellent review you have confirmed my choice. Sorry if I don't help your stats much. 😊

Brilliant video review including Slovak language tutorial. :) And that panel of people evaluating their homeland product was very fitting too. Thank you and keep inspiring.

    That glovebox is a sign of RHD as an afterthought - the LHD cars get a full-sized glove-box because it doesn't rob space for the fuse box which doesn't swap sides with the steering wheel.

    158 Wh/km is pretty good for a 2.1T car. Equates to about 490km real world range (and fits nicely with the usual WLTP-10%). Disappointing it only has a 1T tow capacity when most of its competitors are 1.5-1.8T though.
    I like the look of this car, in particular the fastback model (it’s not really a coupe) but at $92-103K it falls into the ground between consumer EVs and luxury EVs.

    Great review Gav, looks to be a great car, have an EV6 on order (hopefully pick up in the next week or two) the Enyaq won't be available in Australia this year, we seem soooo slow over here for receiving new models. Loved seeing the Allegro, used to work on them when I was a mechanic over there many years ago !!!!
