The Skoda Enyaq iV has been on the market for several years now, marking Skoda’s entrance into the growing electric SUV market. The Enyaq has been successful in attracting customers with its stylish design, and the introduction of the Skoda Enyaq iV Coupé last year further boosted sales, helping Skoda become the sixth most popular brand in Europe in 2022.

Today, we will be looking at the Enyaq iV Coupé. It comes in four trims and is equipped with Skoda’s largest 82kWh (75kWh usable) battery, offering an impressive range of 345 miles. The starting price for this streamlined electric vehicle is a modest £44,825, considering the current market for electric family cars in 2023. Competitors include the user-friendly Volvo C40 Recharge, Volkswagen’s ID 5, and the unique Hyundai Ioniq 5.

We are testing the Suite-trim Coupé, which falls in the middle of the trims. For an additional £1380 compared to the standard Loft trim, you get a premium upgrade with soft black leather on the dashboard, doors, and seats. It adds a more luxurious feel to the car, although the absence of electric seats at this price point is somewhat surprising and feels a bit cheap.

Our test car also features Race Blue metallic paint (£660) and the Clever package (£2755), which includes keyless entry, adaptive cruise control, heated front seats, and other tech upgrades, along with a stylish two-spoke steering wheel. The total price for our configured car comes to £49,620. It’s not cheap, but the cost of electric family driving nowadays is expected to be higher.
