SKODA ENYAQ SPORTLINE 80X AWD DRIVING REVIEW EV SUV

EV Channels Review

The Skoda Enyaq SportLine 80x AWD is presented as a highly capable and versatile electric SUV. The reviewer highlights its sporty exterior design, particularly with the optional illuminated grille and the 'Race Blue' color. Inside, the SportLine trim offers comfortable and supportive seats, a well-appointed interior with quality materials, and a spacious cabin suitable for five adults. The panoramic roof, which can be opened, is a notable feature. Driving dynamics are praised, with the AWD system providing strong acceleration and agile handling, even on the optional 21-inch wheels. The adaptive suspension (DCC) is a significant plus, allowing for fine-tuning of ride comfort and sportiness. The reviewer notes that while the infotainment system and controls are functional, they are not class-leading, and the capacitive sliders are a minor annoyance. Real-world range is estimated at around 400 km (250 miles) with an average consumption of 19-20 kWh/100km, though top-speed consumption can reach 40 kWh/100km. The vehicle's top speed is limited to 160 km/h (100 mph), which the reviewer finds restrictive for some markets. Overall, the Enyaq SportLine 80x is deemed a very decent and practical package, offering a sporty yet comfortable driving experience that rivals combustion engine counterparts.
