The Skoda Enyaq is the value member of the VW Group MEB family, offering the same mechanical underpinnings as the VW ID.4 at a lower price with a more pragmatic interior approach. It's particularly popular with families who want SUV practicality and a long range but don't need the Audi or VW badge.
