@kezo to some extent you make my point. Neither preference is about the marque. The 350 mile EQS with faster charging due to 800v architecture and the aesthetically pleasing Audi over the Skoda. To be fair we sat in a Q4 and felt like we were perched very high up and not too comfortably. I hoped for a better model to have joined the scheme, which may have made for a second visit but the Enyaq is the best compromise of the group. That said, if the Mach E came one spec higher there’d be much confusion and the Ariya Evolve is still a strong candidate alongside the Ioniq 5 (I say alongside because they’re at the same dealership, literally beside each other).
Considering Skoda sit at the bottom of the VW group, the company was pumching it weight high with ICE and doing so even more with its electric Enyak compared to the rest of the group.
The 800V architecture means little today with only a few 350kW chargers compared to say 150kW but, will in the future maybe later this decade.
We revisted Hyundai to look at the 5 and 6 in closer detail and to be honest was a little disapointed with the quality of interior materials. The door cards felt brittle being fully plastic, which I believe is to help the ambient lighting but other manufacturers seem to manage to do similar with softer touch materials. The seats in the AWD premium 5 and first edition 6 felt woefully cheap as if they wouldn’t last.Then theres the haptic touch and the need to dig deep n the menu to turn of the annoying speed warning bong Hyundai are so good at! There were other area’s but I won’t go into them here, other than I thinnk Hyundai have took it a step too far with its eco materials and veg oil paint and a car/s I’d walk away from at their RRP’s.
Stick with the Enyak 🙂
