Škoda has expanded its Enyaq electric SUV range with two new entry-level models, the Enyaq 50 and Enyaq 50 Edition. These models are priced from £36,970, making them more affordable by £2,000 compared to the outgoing Enyaq 60 model. Orders for these new models have been open since 11 July 2024.
The Enyaq 50 and Enyaq 50 Edition come with a 55kWh battery pack (52kWh net), offering a range of up to 234 miles and 232 miles respectively on the WLTP cycle.
