So, I’ve been following this thread with interest. Much of what has been said in favour of the Enyaq is undeniably true and I can understand why so many folk are choosing one for their next car. For me, personally, I went for the Audi Q4 which is currently on order.
One small factor is that I am a bit of a traditionalist and cannot abide the tablet style infotainment systems seemingly stuck onto the dash as an afterthought which is the route most manufacturers appear to be going. This is also true of VW, not only with their EVs but the new Tiguan MK3 is the same. I do agree that the ID.4 interior is very bland and is a turn off for me, this coming from a family that has had VWs exclusively for 20+ years. Also, I watched several comparison reviews between the VW ID.4 and Audi Q4 and the Audi came out on top by a long way in most of them (admittedly those including the Enyaq tended to put that in first place, largely due to its value for money). However, much of the extra kit on the Enyaq is ‘nice to have’ as far as I’m concerned and I think I can manage without the umbrella and ice scraper the Skoda offers ![]()
Due to my wife’s medical condition, by far the most important criteria in choosing our next car is the comfort and smoothness of its ride and this was the main reason we went with the Audi Q4 Sport with its Comfort Suspension and generous tyre wall depths, to the extent that even if the S Line had been available on the scheme, the fact that it has lowered Sport Suspension and larger wheels which means less rubber meant we would still have gone with the Sport trim level. I just hope they haven’t tinkered with the Comfort Suspension too much in the recent upgrade.
Incidentally, I seem to remember one or two posts a while ago commenting that a shortfall in production of the APP550 motor was one reason for the VW and Audi EV manufacturing delays in December. I haven’t read anything recently to suggest whether this has been resolved one way or another.
