The Skoda Enyaq has made history by becoming the first electric vehicle to win Used Car of the Year from WHATCAR?. Judges praised it as a “terrific all-rounder” that delivers far more quality, comfort and practicality than its used price tag suggests.
With used prices starting from around £13,000, the Enyaq stands out as one of the best-value electric family SUVs on the market. It offers a spacious interior, a large boot, and a smooth balance between ride comfort and handling—making it more practical than rivals like the Tesla Model 3 and more comfortable than the Model Y.
WHATCAR? highlighted its generous equipment levels, long driving range (up to 333 miles in larger-battery versions), and premium-feeling interior, which comes close to matching cars like the Audi Q4 e-tron for quality. The Enyaq also impressed with its usability, comfortably seating five adults and offering one of the biggest boots in its class.
Adding to its success, the Enyaq also picked up Best Used Electric Family SUV, reinforcing its reputation as the smartest used EV buy right now. Recent updates have further improved charging speeds, infotainment and driver assistance systems, while its five-star Euro NCAP safety rating makes it a reassuring choice for families.
In short, Škoda’s Enyaq combines affordability, space, comfort and electric performance better than any other used car on the shortlist—proving that going electric no longer means compromising on value or practicality.
