I waited 13 months for my Enyaq and really, it was worth it. I couldn't find anything else for the same money that gives you the same amount of space, comfort and range in the car.

No way I'd wait that long. It's moving too fast in the EV market. It will be better options in a year's time. If you want something sooner, it would be the Kia EV6 or the Hyundai Ioniq 5.

Ridiculous wait times, but it depends. If you really need a car, obviously it’s not the place to go. If you can wait and you’ve test driven the Enyaq and love it, then perhaps it’s worth holding out.

After waiting 8 months for Enyaq I canceled my order and got myself a Tesla Model Y. In my opinion, the software and charging network alone make it a better choice.

In fact, it actually worked in my favor, the long wait. When I got my Enyaq, it had the latest software updates and a couple of minor improvements by the time. Waiting isn’t always a bad thing if you don’t have somewhere to be.

I don’t think the Enyaq is overrated. If you don’t want to wait, there are plenty of great EVs out there. The whole market is evolving so quickly, why limit yourself to one model?

Wait times are a deal breaker for me. It's poor planning on Skoda's part, and I worry about how they'll be able to support the car long term if they can't even get production right.
How do you rate on build quality and reliability compared in the Enyaq to other Skoda models?
06 January 2025 10:23
I would say the build quality on my Enyaq is very good. In 18 months of ownership, I haven’t had any rattles or issues and it feels more premium than my old Octavia. This one is nailed by Skoda.

I've had mixed experiences. It's well put together, I've had some electrical gremlins that required dealer visits. My old Superb is not as bulletproof as this.

The Enyaq feels as well built as you’d come to expect from a VW. Skoda has done a great job of transitioning to EVs without losing quality, I think. It is most certainly up there with the more expensive brands.

The build quality is good but I can’t say it’s reliable. I’m having issues with the steering assist, and keyless entry too. For a new car, it's spent more time at the dealer than I would like.

I think people are unrealistic. Skoda’s Enyaq is a first gen EV and therefore some teething problems expected. All in all I feel like it is solid and well made.

The Enyaq’s build quality is fine, it’s just the software reliability that’s the problem. Modern EVs are only half the story when it comes to physical build.

As someone who's had a few Skodas in the past, the Enyaq feels like a move up in terms of the materials and assembly. It's not perfect but for the price point it's pretty impressive.
Is the practicality of the Enyaq worth that extra cost compared to ICE Skoda?
06 January 2025 10:23
The price definitely justifies the practicality of the Enyaq for me. It’s so much more usable than my old Kodiaq thanks to the huge boot, flat floor and clever storage solutions. I'm also saving a ton on fuel costs.

I don't think it's worth that premium. It’s practical, yes, but so are other Skoda models. I’m hesitant because of the high purchase price and uncertainty of long term battery life.

It's very practical, but the whole EV experience is what makes it worth it for me. Instant torque, silent operation and environmental benefits are valuable beyond the practical.

It depends on how you’re going to use it, I think. However, if you do a lot of miles then the fuel savings can easily pay for the extra cost of purchase. It's harder to justify for low mileage users.

It's expensive, but with government incentives and lower road tax, it compares favourably. If you do the math over 5 years of ownership, it sure ain't much more expensive than an ICE Skoda.

I like the practicality but I don’t know it’s 10k better than a Kodiaq. Too much tech is nice, but you can get most of that in high spec ICE models already.
