NEW SKODA ENYAQ - FIRST EV SUV BASED ON MEB VOLKSWAGEN GROUP PLATFORM

EV Channels Review

The Skoda Enyaq iV is presented as the Volkswagen Group's strong response in the electric SUV segment, built on the versatile MEB platform. The review highlights its spacious interior, a significant advantage derived from the EV-specific platform, offering ample room despite its moderate exterior length. Design-wise, the Enyaq iV adopts a more daring approach, particularly in higher trims with features like the illuminated grille and a modern, albeit sometimes overly screen-dependent, interior. The reviewer praises the comfortable seating and the practical solutions for storage and charging cables. However, a significant criticism is leveled at the continued use of animal-derived materials in many interior trims, which is seen as a contradiction to sustainability goals. While the reviewer has not yet driven the vehicle, they anticipate a sporty and efficient driving experience, drawing parallels with other MEB-platform vehicles known for their dynamic handling and promising range figures.
