Enyaq 85 (MY27)

The Škoda Enyaq 85 (MY27) is a 5-seat SUV with rear-wheel drive, on sale in the UK from £40,560. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 6.6 seconds, slower than 49% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 286 miles (460 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 63% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 70th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.7 mi/kWh (167 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 77 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 115 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 311 miles (501 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Its UK starting price works out at £142 per mile of real-world range, lower than the median for SUVs (£186 per mile).
