4 – Skoda ENYAQ iV: Equipment, packages and interior

The Škoda ENYAQ’s equipment is one of the areas that has changed the most over the years. Even the first generation offered an enormous selection of packages, versions and design options, making comparisons difficult. This chapter summarises all the relevant information in a compact form and helps you keep track of things when buying a used car.

Basic variants

The first-generation ENYAQ was offered in three main lines and a special edition:

  • Standard version: classic look with chrome accents and comfort focus
  • Sportline: black accents, sport-tuned suspension, sports seats, progressive steering
  • Founders Edition: limited first series 2021 in black or Arctic Silver, with special design elements
  • RS: the sportiest variant, with slightly more power and an enhanced Sportline design

In terms of content, the lines differ mainly in terms of appearance and chassis tuning – the technical basis remains identical.

Interior and Design Selections

Škoda calls the interior of the ENYAQ iV ‘Design Selections’. You choose the colours, materials and fabrics.

  • Studio: basic equipment in the ENYAQ iV 50
  • Loft: standard equipment in the ENYAQ iV 60, 80, 80x
  • Lodge: sustainable fabric/wool blend, very robust and popular
  • Lounge: light-coloured fabric with contrasting stitching, visually elegant, somewhat more delicate
  • Suite: black leather with brown elements, high-quality and comfortable
  • Eco Suite: brown leather made from vegetable-tanned material
  • Sportline Selection: special sports seats with embossed Sportline lettering, only available with Sportline
  • RS Selection: exclusive RS sports seats with logo and Alcantara elements, only available in RS

Experience reports show: Lodge is particularly durable, Suite and Eco Suite look classy, Lounge tends to wear out more quickly in some vehicles.

Equipment packages up to model year 2023

Up to and including model year 2022, there were ten equipment packages, each available in two versions: Basic and Plus. The following overview first shows the basic functions and then what is additionally included in the Plus version. Only some of the packages are available for the ENYAQ iV50.

Equipment packages from model year 2023

With the 2023 model year, the previous packages (Basic/Plus) have been replaced by a new, harmonised structure. They are now called Clever, Plus, Advanced, Maxx and Sportline. The Parking Basic and Infotainment Basic packages have become standard, while the Family Plus package has been discontinued.

Typical equipment gaps in used cars

Not all vehicles are fully equipped. The following are often missing:

  • 360° camera (only in Park Plus or Maxx)
  • Crystal Face (Light & Vision Plus / Advanced)
  • Head-up display (Infotainment Plus / Advanced)
  • DCC (Drive Plus / Maxx)

This is partly due to the supply bottlenecks at the time caused by the COVID pandemic and restricted global supply chains. In some cases, packages were only available to order with reduced scope for a limited period.

Especially with early ENYAQ 60 or 80 models, it is worth taking a closer look at the equipment details. The differences are significant and often decisive for price and comfort.

Rims and tyres

The ENYAQ uses wider tyres at the rear than at the front (255 mm instead of 235 mm). Rims are available in 19, 20 and 21 inches. There is a very wide selection, so I will refrain from showing pictures.
Popular designs were: Regulus, Proteus, Vega and Betria.

Please note that larger rims look sportier, but also slightly increase fuel consumption and tyre costs. The 20″ rims are a good compromise. When it comes to tyres, it is advisable to use separate summer and winter tyres instead of all-season tyres in order to optimise fuel consumption.

Conclusion

The ENYAQ’s equipment is diverse and, in some cases, complex. It is important to understand that many names refer to similar features. Anyone buying a used vehicle should check carefully which comfort and driver assistance functions are actually installed.
A well-equipped ENYAQ with the ‘Plus’ or ‘Advanced’ package already offers a very high level of everyday comfort – beyond that, it is mainly a question of personal taste.
