I’m just over 1/2 way through my Enyaq lease but still looking for what’ll be next. Realistically it’s about 15 months until I can order so around October next year. I’m fairly limited by my height and mobility issues, I need something tall enough to get into so at least 1.6m or better. I’m definetly staying with a full EV so another Enyaq would of course fit, the Elroq as well or maybe the ford Explorer. The Toyota BZ4x and Nissan Ariya are non-starters, couldn’t even get into the toyota due to the height/shape of the opening and floor height, the Nissan was far too cramped inside with the steering wheel hitting my legs and my head hitting the roof lining!, weirdly both of those are 2 or 3cm taller than my current Enyaq!
I had a look around the new shape Enyaq today, it’s much better spec’d and still rather comfortable a place to be. We sat in the standard Edition, with it’s driver’s electric/massaging seat and electric tailgate it’s got a lot of what we see as essential from standard, the addition of the Advance pack brings in the HUD which I’ve gotten really used to having.
I still like the Ariya but the version with everything we need is rather expensive. The Toyota isn’t a viable option, purely because it’s a Toyota. There’s too many manufacturers who seem to think offering the base model at a huge AP is perfectly acceptable. They should understand the benefit certain features have on those with mobility and movement issues. Not reaching to pull down a heavy tailgate is a life saver when you’re barely able to stand after being in the car too long. Having large and comfortable seats for those of us who take up that little bit more space but also have lower back/leg issues can make the difference between being able to get around town, just, and being able to travel longer distances, forget the hassle of charging, there’s the hassle of having to get out of the car every hour because you’re back has been complaining for the last 10 minutes.

I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.
