Skoda Enyaq
As a model line, the Enyaq is a comfortable, quiet electric SUV. The steering is light and the chassis filters out bumps calmly, while the drivetrain works almost silently. It feels stable and predictable without becoming sporty. Rear-wheel drive steers neutrally and all-wheel-drive versions add extra grip. Expect no sharp dynamics, but a relaxed, safe and smooth ride that suits daily use and long trips alike.
