Škoda Enyaq: generations, battery, range and what to check when buying
Škoda Enyaq — the electric crossover has been available since 2020 on the Volkswagen Group's MEB platform. We look at the generations (60, 80, 85, RS), the Coupé variant, range and what's important to check before buying a used Enyaq.
Enyaq at a glance
The Enyaq is Škoda's first electric car built on the MEB platform, alongside the Volkswagen ID.4 and Audi Q4 e-tron. It offers a spacious interior, large boot, practical solutions and sufficient range for daily driving and long trips.
On the used market, the Enyaq is valued for its practicality, space and good price-to-value ratio compared to rivals. As well as the standard crossover, there's also the Enyaq Coupé with its sleeker roofline.
Generations and their differences
The initial versions were named iV: 50, 60, 80 and 80x — the numbers indicated battery capacity and power. Later, the names were changed to 60, 80, 85 and 85x, while the RS (vRS) is the sporty version with four-wheel drive and more power.
The smaller versions are suited to city and suburban driving, while the 80 and 85 are better for longer journeys. Versions with an 'x' have four-wheel drive, while the RS has the most power. Exact details depend on the year, so check the specific car's specification before buying.
Engine, battery and charging
The Enyaq has one electric motor on the rear axle (60, 80, 85) or two motors with all-wheel drive (80x, 85x, RS). Power ranges from around 150 HP to about 300 HP in the RS version. According to WLTP, the maximum range reaches approximately 500 km (in versions with the largest battery).
Charging is possible from a home station or public fast-charging points. Larger battery versions are better suited for long journeys, as their fast-charging capacity is higher. Specific values vary depending on the version and year.
What to check when buying a used Enyaq
The most important thing is the battery condition. Ask the seller for a battery condition check and find out what warranty is still valid. Check the charging history and ensure the car charges properly from AC and DC stations.
Test the multimedia system and driver assistance systems — earlier versions had software glitches, so check if updates and manufacturer recalls have been carried out.
Pay attention to the condition of the tyres — electric vehicles wear them out faster due to torque and weight. Also, check if charging cables are included.
