If you get obd11 you can turn the lane keeping off. Also tomorrow (31/10/23) the 24my changes increase battery to 85 from 80 with an increase in miles plus many other changes
Love the up to date review as every other video I've seen are about 3 years old , i ordered my iv60 ecosuite on 5th August got a phone call from my dealer saying its been built and in transit and i should be able to collect before the end of the month 🤞🤞🤞 love your review
Agree about the regen - I put mine in B and leave it there. Anything you can do in D, you can do with the throttle pedal position. Also if you need to make an emergency stop, the instant you lift your foot you're already slowing significantly some time before your foot is hard on the brake pedal- this must reduce the stopping distance. The thing I'd change is the bl**dy lane assist, however I'd be a bit uncertain about changing the setting with OBD11 - the car records certain settings and if in the event of an accident if it was found that you'd changed the set up from that Type Approved, you might have insurance issues.
Have to disagree about the lane keeping assist - I've owned an enyaq 80x for two months now and I still haven't turned it off - which is an absolute miracle as I generally hate it and I actually consider them dangerous in most cars (particularly on country roads). I find the Enyaq's version quite gentle in most situations. Yes, it occasionally doesn't quite know what to do (as all of them do), but it's not as aggressive as most other cars I've driven in the last 10 years or so - the heads up gives me a very nice visual indication of when it activates as well (which might be a part of the reason that I haven't turned it off - as I can see immediately when it's trying to correct the steering, rather than just feeling it)
I also shut lane keep assist off every time i start driving but just because we have snow here and those road paintings is partially buried. You can also put that icon lower part of infotainment in favorite section so you can 2 tap to take it off.
It's a shame that Motor Mall are dealers for almost everything, because their service is so poor :-( Skoda Enyaq is very high on my list for an EV in February/March of next year, but I'm not sure that the boot is big enough for a wheelchair hoist, and despite being in the showroom for ten minutes, including with my wife in the rear, with a tape measure, we were studiously ignored. I left, not overly happy at the lack of service. Another potential is a Hyundai, which is back to Motor Mall, but once again, zero service from anyone. One guy actually made a huge loop around me, so we couldn't even interrupt him! After they damaged my wife's car during a routine service, I was reluctant to use them anyway, but with them hoovering up so many brands (the ID Buzz is my third option, so Motor Mall again 😞) I'll just buy off Island again. Skoda dealer in Morecambe (where I bought my last two Skodas) are excellent. Good review though!
Hello Keith 👋, that doesn't sound good - it might be worth contacting them directly if you haven't already as they might want to hear about your experience and you can probably even drive the same Skoda from this video! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😊
I found these measurements online. I hope these help: Width between arches 100 Depth to top of back seats 70 Depth to bottom of back seats 96 Depth seats folded 183 Height of door opening 73 Height to load cover 57
Thank you@@MartinsLusisVideo. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is nudging ahead at the moment, it is a vital couple of inches wider. I've been back to Motor Mall, begrudgingly! But this time, I was met by John, who couldn't have been more helpful, and while I still have reservations about them, he, and the two other blokes who were there at the time, have done some bridge-building! He lifted the wheelchair & Batec in to the Skoda & Ioniq. With the Skoda, the chair & Batec went in, just, but the Hyundai they went in with room to spare.
4WD is NOT for performance (only)! Living in a land like Sweden we have something called snow and ice... If you have been stuck even ONCE in snow or been gliding down a slope the wrong way because the rear wheels are just not getting enough grip... Then you know what I'm talking about. I'm really tired of all those promoting 2WD and preferably RWD. They don't know the pain of getting stuck or gliding into a neighbours bushes sideways 😉
Sorry but have to disagree with your view on WLTP figures, they are the next 'diesel scandal'. In real world conditions some cars get close, many get nowhere near. Bizarrely I found the id4 bad, the enyaq good and the new Kona brilliant on same route. WLTP is useless for comparison whilst so many cars vary in the percentage they achieve of that figure.
That’s okay to disagree. Thanks for your comment, Mark. I agree, WLTP figures are optimistic and for some models downright inflated and well overdue an overhaul. It’s not as bad as dieselgate - it would be hard to test for the test conditions. But… it’s a standardised test so useful to compare between the Enyaq models versus the ID models etc. They’ve all gone through the same test specification. -Mike

Great tips ty!
Can you provide the info on how to turn off lane assist please I have car scanner app
Starting you don’t have to press the start button. Just press the brake and select drive. Turning off just pull the handbrake on or open the door.
Just Press Down the break pedal. No need to use the start button 😂

I really like the way that Skoda think about the occupants when designing their cars.

The back seat bealt alarm can’t be turned off and it’s very loud

I have A Skoda enyaq iv 80 and I've had a scooter hoist fitted working fine
The Enyaq boot is big and it has a box shape. So, if any car can fit it, this should be the one.
I found these measurements online. I hope these help:
Width between arches 100
Depth to top of back seats 70
Depth to bottom of back seats 96
Depth seats folded 183
Height of door opening 73
Height to load cover 57

Strange doing a review of a model that was phased out during the time of your video?
Its now an 85 with more power, range and faster charging.
people (many) still buy the 80... What a strange comment.
Sitting a little high. Hope the seat goes lower.
Ala cantra ???
12:16
What is the fascination with one pedal driving so many EV drivers talk about? Just don't get how tthe car graking is more controlled than the driver.
A smidge under Range Rover height? Seriously??!
Yes. There’s about 5cm in it.
@@DivingDeveloper I have an enyaq and I had a Range Rover. No comparison. The enyaq sits way lower.

This isn't even the current car, this version was updated to the 85 during the time of this video.
get yourself a decent mic.
Will look into. Any recommendations, Mick?
