How does it compare?
Range
Starting with range, the Skoda Enyaq Coupe 85 boasts an impressive 572 km (355 miles), making it a long-distance champion. Trailing behind, the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro manages 520 km (323 miles), still respectable but not quite touching Skoda’s mark. The Ford Mustang Mach-E provides a solid 491 km (305 miles), making it a reliable mid-ranger. The Tesla Model Y Long Range extends its reign with a stunning 505 km (314 miles) but falls short of the Enyaq. Finally, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 closes the gap with a 480 km (298 miles) range, positioning itself well but not quite at the pinnacle.
Acceleration
The need for speed leans in favor of the Skoda Enyaq Coupe 85, achieving 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in a swift 6.7 seconds. Although quick, it’s left in the slipstream of the Tesla Model Y Long Ranges rocket-like 4.8 seconds. The Ford Mustang Mach-E scratches the itch for adrenaline with a 5.8 seconds sprint, while the Hyundai Ioniq 5 delivers a respectable 5.2 seconds. The laggard here, the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro, still respectable, clocks in at a leisurely 7.8 seconds.
Power
Under the hood, the Skoda Enyaq Coupe 85 flexes its 282 horses, making it a potent performance machine. Yet, it can’t quite harness the 384 hp thrust of the Mustang Mach-E nor the 346 hp rush from the Tesla Model Y Long Range. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 stands tall with its 320 hp, while the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro’s 201 hp trails behind the pack, but let’s face it, power isn’t everything.
Charging Time
Charging times can make or break convenience. The Skoda Enyaq Coupe 85’s robust 86 kWh battery charges from 10% to 80% in around 30 minutes on a 125 kW charger. The Tesla Model Y Long Range mimics this speed, while the Ford Mustang Mach-E lags slightly, requiring about 38 minutes. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 impresses with a 350 kW charger capability, slicing the time down to an astounding 18 minutes. Volkswagen ID.4 Pro? It takes around 38 minutes for the similar 10% to 80% leap at 125 kW.
Price
Now, let’s talk brass tacks. The Skoda Enyaq Coupe 85 starts at $56,800, £41,800, or €47,900, hitting that middle ground of performance without leaving your wallet weeping. The Volkswagen ID.4 Pro lures buyers at $48,000, £35,000, or €41,000, while the Ford Mustang Mach-E pushes up to around $59,900, £44,500, or €49,500. Then there’s the Tesla Model Y Long Range which tips the scales at a heavy $64,000, £47,000, or €56,000. Finally, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 hovers at $54,000, £39,750, or €45,400.
In essence, if you’re chasing after the slickest blend of range, performance, and price, the Skoda Enyaq Coupe 85 dances impressively among the EV elite.
