Design & powertrain

The Enyaq iV 85x Sportline builds upon the versatile MEB platform, which it shares with models such as the Volkswagen ID.4 and Audi Q4 e-tron, but it stands out with Skoda’s distinctive design and practical touches. While it’s classed as an SUV, the Enyaq leans more towards an estate in shape, which benefits interior space and functionality. As well as offering generous legroom for rear passengers, the Enyaq also features a spacious 585-litre boot — larger than those found in both the Volkswagen ID.4 and Audi Q4 e-tron — and this expands to 1,710 litres with the rear seats folded, making it especially family-friendly.

Under the bonnet, the 85x Sportline features dual electric motors delivering a combined 286 PS, providing all-wheel drive capabilities. The 82 kWh battery (77 kWh usable) supports a WLTP range of up to 328 miles, giving you the confidence to cover longer journeys with ease.

Driving experience

The Skoda Enyaq iV 85x Sportline offers a refined and well-balanced driving experience that feels both composed and engaging. Thanks to its dual-motor setup delivering 286 PS, acceleration is swift and smooth, with a 0–62 mph time of just 6.6 seconds. This performance is more than adequate for day-to-day driving, and there's a reassuring amount of power in reserve when overtaking or joining faster traffic.

The all-wheel drive system, exclusive to the ‘85x’ variant, adds an extra layer of grip and stability, which is particularly useful in poor weather conditions or on uneven road surfaces. It distributes torque intelligently between the front and rear axles, enhancing both traction and cornering confidence.

Ride quality in the Sportline is excellent. It features a lowered sports suspension setup which subtly firms up the chassis for a more agile feel, while still soaking up road imperfections well. The steering is precise, and the car feels well-weighted, giving the driver a strong sense of control without being overly sporty or harsh.

There are four selectable driving modes – Eco, Normal, Sport, and Individual – allowing you to tailor throttle response, steering weight, and climate settings to suit your mood or conditions. In Sport mode, the Enyaq sharpens up noticeably, with more immediate acceleration and a firmer steering feel, while Eco prioritises efficiency for longer-range driving.

As with virtually all new cars, the majority of interior controls: including drive modes, navigation, and climate settings are accessed via the large central touchscreen. While this helps maintain a minimalist, uncluttered cabin design, it does mean that even simple adjustments can involve a few taps on the screen rather than a quick turn of a dial.

Overall, the Enyaq 85x Sportline strikes a pleasing balance between comfort and capability, offering a composed drive that still has a sporty edge. It’s an ideal choice for drivers who want an electric SUV that’s practical, premium-feeling, and genuinely enjoyable behind the wheel.

Skoda Enyaq iV 85x features & technology

Inside, the Sportline trim exudes a sporty ambiance with features like carbon-effect dashboard inserts, sports seats, and a three-spoke multifunction steering wheel. The 13-inch central touchscreen serves as the hub for infotainment and vehicle settings, complemented by a 5.3-inch digital driver display.

A standout feature in the Enyaq iV 85x Sportline is the head-up display (HUD), which projects essential driving information such as speed, navigation prompts, and driver assistance alerts directly onto the windscreen. This allows the driver to keep their eyes on the road while staying informed, a big plus for safety and convenience.

Standard equipment also includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a panoramic sunroof, and a suite of driver assistance systems such as adaptive cruise control, lane assist, and a rear-view camera.

Charging & efficiency

The Enyaq iV 85x Sportline supports rapid DC charging up to 175 kW, enabling a 10-80% charge in approximately 28 minutes. For home charging, the 11 kW onboard charger allows a full charge in about 7.5 hours using a suitable wallbox.
