If you’re a regular follower of this channel or if you’ve listened to our weekly Kilowatt Half Hour podcast, you’ll know that there’s one electric car that has become the benchmark for quality, comfort and general excellence. It’s not a Tesla, a BMW or even a Kia. It’s… the Škoda Enyaq.
And this right here is the facelifted version that’s about to go on sale at a Škoda dealer near you. The lovely people at Škoda invited us out to Prague to have a jolly good look around it. And decide if it’s still going to be an electrifying.com favourite?
We’re not the only ones who love the Enyaq. It was the UK’s best-selling EV in October last year and Škoda has shifted more than a quarter of a million of them across Europe since its launch. It is, at the time of recording, Europe’s fourth best-selling electric car. And that can’t all be down to Ginny constantly banging on about it.
Although this is officially called the Enyaq facelift, it’s been an update of two halves, really. This refresh mainly focuses on design and kit, because all the important bits underneath were changed last year.
Škoda didn’t make a song and dance about it at the time, but the changes were actually pretty significant – especially to the big battery 77kWh model, which is the one we buy most of in the UK.
When it was launched, the standard Enyaq generated 201bhp and 310Nm torque. Last year, Škoda quietly bumped that up to 282bhp and 545Nm of torque. The change took nearly two seconds off the 0-62mph time and made the Enyaq a lot more fun to drive.
Because it was such a big update, Škoda hasn’t changed anything in the battery and motor departments for 2025. Like before, you can choose between the entry-level Enyaq 60 that comes with a 59kWh battery pack, and an Enyaq 85 which has a 77kWh pack. Oh, and you’ll also be able to choose between SUV and Coupe body styles.
The only thing that has changed are the charging speeds. The Enyaq 60 can now rapid charge at speeds of up to 165kW, while the Enyaq 85 peaks at 175kW. That means that you’ll be able to bag a 10-80% charge in under 30 minutes on both models.
