Rear seats in Tesla. My lads love them because of the standard glass roof. You forgot to mention this. Tesla does have a12v socket in boot. It's in the left corner by the light.
How can you just look at the 854 L Tesla quotes and not comment on the fact that Tesla uses a different measurement standard ,which measures all the way to roof, to Skoda and Hyundai which only measure to parcel shelf? It's so blatantly obvious that the Model Y doesn't have a 45% larger boot than the Skoda. In fact, VW use the same standard as Tesla for the US market and then the ID.4 boot (which is smaller than the Skoda) measures larger than the Model Y boot at 858 L.
I went for the ioniq 5 ultimate AWD. Love it. With you 100% on the E/V on/off button. Makes no sense and keep forgetting. Best bit is the looks. Last week a kid stopped in front of me with his grandma in supermarket car park, pointed, and said ‘WOW look at that cool car’ made my day. Overall, They’re all so good you can’t go far wrong with any of them.
I also have the ultimate AWD. Missed a trick not scoring for coolness factor. ie. drive each car for a week and count how many strangers stop you wanting to talk about your car. Ioniq wins easy.😄
Don't know what people have with the button. I actually think it fits quit perfectly. I don't want the car to go into a ready mode just because I got in. I want to have the choice if it should turn on, go into accessory state or drive mode. Pressing a button is really no inconvenience at all, because then you could start arguing about why we have to put our seatbelt on, even care a key of any kind (including phone) with us etc. (btw I think the genesis has face unlock ^^)
Thanks guys, a thoroughly informative and entertaining video. You managed to get banana humour and snuggling in the back of the car to be entertaining without distracting from the plethora of honest opinion and detail. Seeing one of your videos pop up is like finding an extra pressie at Christmas. Bravo and please keep it up!
just a FYI, but the Enyaq back seat USB sockets are in an optional equipment package, used to be called "Family pack" , now "Plus pack with alarm" (in Finland at least). The pack also includes a 230V standard socket for powering laptops or what not. The 12V socket in the boot is/was also an option in the "Transport pack". Our Enyaq has these, quite convenient features. :) But perhaps this is also a bit of minus for the Enyaq that a lot of features are optional extras and additional cost, and the cheapest base cars are fairly basic.
Enyaq 80X Sportline owner here. Tried, and almost bought a MY, as the Enyaq delivery kept being delayed. The MY had great space for our 3 kids, superb stereo, fantastic user interface(once you get used to it - fairly quickly), mobile-app and charging network... but, poor lights, weird wipers(updated now, though), mediocre travel assist(over-reacting and needed very specific steering input), sweaty seats, no shade in the roof. Really enjoy our Enyaq. The Sportline trim looks great(too me at least), and the lights, HUD and travel-assist(Plus package) are just superb(semi-punt intended). Ours came with the updated software, and runs well. The planning is much better, as is the UI in general... still room for improvements. Bi-directional charging should be added in future updates, as well as selective pre-heating of the battery(before charging). The SKODA app lets you pre-heat/cool the car before leaving in the morning. Will be nice, when the winter is coming.
Tesla's charging network is worth 20 points. You never have to worry even in unfamiliar territory. Unlike other cars that tell you a charging station is there, but it is on the other side of a French motorway. 15 kilometres to the exit and 15 back to the other side of the motorway.
I said the same thing watching the video - as everything outside of the Tesla network is a complete joke in the UK, an horrendous experience of dozens of different manufacturers with dodgy apps and broken interfaces, broken payment methods and way too many broken chargers. It's nothing but pain and suffering trying to charge on a long journey outside the Tesla supercharger network - it's just so bad in the UK that it makes owning an EV that isn't a Tesla a waste of time if you ever want to do a long journey. Tesla has opened a handful of charging sites up to non Tesla's but it's only a small number and then many cars have issues as the Tesla supercharger cables are very short as they are designed for, unsurprisingly, Tesla's.
That's a good point but like most things, it's very user specific. We only charge at home and never need the public charge network. Also with the increase in teslas on the road, there have been queues at some of the busier tesla chargers.
I have had zero issues with ABRP, gives more functionality than the tesla nav and when you're in an area with no superchargers it gives you options like ionity, porsche (my new favourites), fastned etc etc
@@blower1 I agree. We have an i3 120Ah which is fine for 95% of our trips, charging at home. It is fun to drive and small enough to make it easy to park etc. We also have an ICE for our occasional long trips and tip runs but the total > 180m mile trips we do these days does not make it worth having a long range large EV. As you say, there is no way I would want to rely on the non-Tesla public charging network in the UK. I base this on the queues I now see at motorway services and the number of "not working" flags on ZapMap
Yer and don’t forget reliable battery heating before rapid charging so even in - c. You still get good charging speed unlike the slow charging Ioniq by looks of peoples videos and the Tesla stuff just works great and constant updates like features it didn’t have when you buy it and ability to add stuff like eap after buy the car if you so wish and for us the best blend of driver fun speed and efficiently is a win for us after trying both others and ev6 and id3 but would have cupra born over id3 and ev6 over Ioniq 5 . But like was said so like bits when others hate bits it upto the people to decide what if most important.
I have test driven Skoda Enyaq and Tesla model Y. Sadly I haven't had a chance to drive the ioniq yet. I always wanted a Tesla but once I driven one I will definitely not be buying one. Too minimalistic with just one big screen. Not for me. As soon as I sat in Skoda just loved the feel. So spacious with a huge boot space not to mention about the price. This is the car I would be happy to replace my MG4 in a future as the kids growing and will be needing more space. Great review guys as always 👍very fair and informative as always ☺️ Love the 🍌 test 😄
I’ve had my model 3 for just over 2 years now. My only negative is a lack of buttons. Yes you can control it through the screen, all very high tech, but, a bit of a mission when you are driving. The voice activation function has a mind of its own. Everything else I love.
New model Y has a 12 volt in the rear and The model Y does not need a wiper blade on the rear, Torrential rain on the French motorways. Not one drop of rain on the rear screen. Amazing.
Not applicable in snow or when it is so cold that rain turns into ice at contact, or with trucks throwing mud and snow at it. It either rear wiper or rear mirror camera. Deal breaker for me. New Ioniq conceded and they have now one rear wiper
The Enyaq is the only car here where you can fit a dog crate for medium sized dogs, so for dog owners the Skoda offers the most practical solution, also for shoppers, the boot hooks, you don't realise how much you appreciate them for securing your bags, until you change cars and no longer have them. It's a shame that it's the least interesting design. My next car (company) has to be BEV (likely be looking to order early in 2024), and the Enyaq is better than the ID4, cheaper and more practical than others in the class size. There's a new (more powerful and efficient) drive motor due out soon from VAG too, so hopefully they'll upgrade to that. That said, the upcoming ID7 looks interesting if the estate version fits the allowance offers by my employer 👍
I have only tried out the Skoda Enyaq and the Hyundai Ioniq and must admit that I found the Ioniq too futuristic for my preference and a bit too touchy. The Skoda has a solid feel to it and a big boot. Was happy to purchase it :-)
Tesla boot isn't actually larger than Škoda. They count in the underfloor storage but Škoda doesn't count it in. Also, the Škoda boot shape is waaay more practical.
Nice review, we run an Enyaq alongside our M3P, the 12v in the Enyaq is right hand side of the boot towards the top of the wheel arch behind a blank black cover.
I didn't know how valuable OTA updates would be until I switched brands to Tesla. Now I don't think I would switch to any brand that doesn't support such. So could you please feedback on how the other two do OTA updates? And you didn't mention apps ... and driver profiles ... which are features of the family car that my wife and I use all the time (not everyone would be sharing the driving as often as we so of course!).
You forgot the most important feature in these energyproblem times.... efficiency !!! - So guess who will win after this category ....;-) Tesla - and this is the top most important thing when you look at the energy prices !!! - Love your videos - greetings from Vienna !!!!
Erm, yes the Model Y does indeed have a 12V in the boot. Surprised you didn’t know that consider you own one! Also the sentry mode and 360 coverage cameras are worth a lot more points if you ask me!
The headlights on the Tesla are unforgivable for the price. I've got an older pre-matrix M3P, not that it matters since the newer cars only have matrix headlights in principal. They have been delivered with matrix-capable hardware since the start of 2021 - maybe even earlier - and absolutely nothing has happened with them in that time. I'm also a bit surprised you didn't go into how relatively useless automatic headlights and wipers are, relative to the other cars where I imagine it just works (like everything else built in the last 10 years). I enjoy the performance in my M3P, and the efficiency, the minimalism and the useable space, but other manufacturers are bringing out better and better cars every year, whereas Tesla seem to be resting on their laurels because demand continues to outstrip supply. That won't endure forever.
Totally agree. I have the latest Model Y and my old model 3 headlights worked much better. My 7 year old Ford Mondeo had better auto lights and auto wipers than both of them.
Strange ... My Model Ys wipers and headlights are fine .... still early days for TESLA though, great to see an EV line up at this stage to easily challenge the current ICE market and more to come !
@@troyboy4345 My experience of the auto wipers has been mostly ok, but I’ve heard that even the slightest dirt or bug splatter around the cameras can cause it to dry wipe. You can’t turn off auto wipers on Autopilot with the latest updates either. Auto headlights are woeful though, coming on in areas of decent ambient lighting from streetlights, not turning off quickly enough when faced with oncoming cars (~2 seconds blinding them is unacceptable), and not seeing distant rear red lights on another car before you’re too close (again blinding them). Mine also have a habit of turning off at reflections off road signs from time to time. Shambolic. I’ve also heard of people on dual carriageways where they come on and blind the other side. There’s no reason for them to be so hopeless in this day and age. I’m not expecting German high end lighting, but a level of performance where I don’t have to hover-hand the stalk and be continually embarrassed at blinding people would be nice.
I have a facelift MS. The matrix headlights on that are not a patch on my previous car - a 12 year old BMW 530 touring. They both light the way nicely when you turn a corner, but the straight ahead lighting is just disappointing on the MS. It didn't help that they came woefully adjusted from Tesla as a used purchase, but even adjusted they are a bit 'meh'.
Interesting how different the markets are. Base spec Ioniq 5 in New Zealand (58kwh) with literally NO features (not even memory seat for driver) is the same price as Model Y RWD (SR+). Larger battery + all the specs makes it more than the MYP. Had a Ioniq 5 for less than 6 months and sold it when the Y became available in NZ.
I had a deposit down on the ioniq5 and didn’t go ahead because the price relative to the Uk was about $10-$15k more. Didn’t buy on principle. In nz Hyundai is more expensive than Kia EV6 and that’s the opposite everywhere else. Now I know about the efficiency I’m glad I went Model Y…although I miss car play!
I really enjoyed this video. After doing 8,000 miles in 4 months in my model Y I’m still unearthing features… I use my car for work, driving on a cross section of all roads. Now having a home charger the range of the model Y has eliminated my use of any other chargers so reducing my initial range anxiety to zero. Handling, braking and on road comfort are all very good, as is its performance. Tyre wear seems about right the standard Hankook EV’S will need to be replaced at around 16-17k in my estimation. The car is now easy to live with however it took a while after covering over 1.5 million miles in ICE vehicles.
The rear seat comfort section was incredibly more thorough than any other reviews. I've yet to find another review where the depth of the rear seat cushion is mentioned, as its quite important for comfort.
For a hatchback car in 2021 not to have a rear wiper in rainy U.K. isn’t clever thinking even if the designers say they aren’t necessary, they are here!
@Keith Denton the i5 does suffer as its a hatchback style. Whereas the tesla has very different geometry and does properly clear rain. I found the i5 to be a disaster of a design without a rear wiper.
You missed the Skodas biggest storage place in the front seats. Its under the center console. So i actually think that the Skoda has way more space in the front seats than the Tesla.
Safety??? The biggest and most critical concern for me as a family car buyer is "will it keep my family safe?". Not power in the boot area or whether I have to press a start button.
Brilliant comparison of 3 good family cars. Has a Skoda Enyaq 80x (4x4), as a family car. Likes the driving layout and comfort, light and not least pade shift behind the steering wheel, which allows for active driving. The car has more than enough engine power. Could imagine V2L and dogmode functionality. My enyag has usb c and 220v in the back seat + 12v in the trunk.
12:55 For Enyaq there is option for 3rd climate zone at rear seats with temperature setting, seat heating, 2 USB C, 230 V socket at console at rear. LOL for alternative ski hatch usage.
I was considering these three and have spent half a year testing them and reading/watching reviews. They all cost around €60k in Norway with awd, large battery and highly specked out. In the end I chose Model Y because of luggage space (Ioniq5 lost out because of that and the cheap screen setup), Supercharger network, best range and performance. I almost chose the Enyaq because of the missing HUD and dash on the Tesla, but the fact that pretty much all options are included (Model Y seems “future proof” with updates) it won. The Kia EV6 is even smaller than the Ioniq5 so it was never in contention for our active family, even though I like the interior. As a bonus and pat on the back for doing great research, I added the Performance package😁 Having a family car that can beat all my childhood bedroom posters from 0-60 is just insane. Cost is only €4k and I’m pretty sure it will be useful when I sell the car.
Hi Jon you make some interesting points and you’ve obviously done a ton of research Can I just ask you the range of the iconic compare to the model y long range seems surprisingly good I found this baffling because the iconic looks not good aerodynamically Do you have any light to shed on this could it be battery chemistry or is there something I’m missing much appreciate your response in advance thanks Kelvin
Would have loved to hear which one you actually would prefer as well, numbers are fine but overall feel is more important in my book. Thanks for a great review though!
11:31 It would have been nice to include the analogues in this comparison: the mirrors. Are they showing you what you need? Is the letterbox out the rear tiny, but do the wing mirrors tilt down, self dimming, convex side mirrors, things like that?
We seriously considered all 3 of these and because of the occasional long distance journeys we do we got the Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate AWD and absolutely love it, the other 2 just can't touch it for the comfort sitting in the front or rear. The Tesla was a close 2nd though because of the boot and efficency. For the money and the cost of all the options, the Skoda really doesn't cut it for us.
For those not driving these, what is the reality of the highway cabin noise? I read some testimonials that Tesla and Hyundai are quite noisy inside. Don't know about the Skoda, it should be more or less like the VW ID4? One guy described the sound you getbfrom the Hyundai as some constant drilling noise or something like that. Thanks.
Cancelled an i5 order and went for the Enyaq. Love it. No regrets. The I5 had too many annoying things for me hence the cancellation. Still a nice car though. The model y didn't offer me anything more for what I am looking for and was a lot more expensive. Enyaq was an easy choice.
@dreamer-Ba as mentioned, I think the i5 is a good car. However, I live in the UK and no rear wiper on a hatchback geometry will be really annoying for 4-6 months of the year. On my test drive I couldn't see through the rear window at all when the sun hit it at any angle. Many are not bothered by this, but I found it really annoying. The door handles are annoying. I don't like the tesla ones either, but they seem worse than the tesla ones. You have to explain to someone who's never been in the car how they work and my parents who have arthritis would need me to get out and open the door every time. I couldn't just pull over and pick them up. Even the ones that auto pop out are not very good when they get frozen in the winter. I'm just not a fan of flush handles. They are a solution to a problem that doesn't exist and just create new and unnecessary problems. I was only being offered a matt gold paint, which was more expensive, and makes maintenance/repair more difficult and expensive. The speedo was partially obscured by the steering wheel with no way to move it. Its off to one side but i think it should be in the centre where its clearly visible. The arrangement seems to have been designed to look good rather than be useful. The turning circle is not very good compared to the Enyaq. The large battery was still not very big and hyundai seemed uncertain if they were going to make it bigger in the UK market. The boot was noticeably smaller than the Enyaq and we have lots of camping gear. None of these was a show stopper by themselves, but add them up and put a 50k price tag on it and I wasn't happy. When I looked at the Enyaq it had none of these annoyances and it was the same price. On the plus side, I did like the drive in the i5 and it does feel more futuristic than the enyaq. I know lots of people rave about them, but for 50k I didn't want lots of little annoyances. As a family car the Enyaq was much better for us and having had it for 2 months now, I know I made the right choice. Many people wouldn't be at all bothered by things I've mentioned, so the i5 will be the right car for them. Its VERY subjective. You need to test drive them all and others if you have the time. I forgot the other thing I don't like about the i5 was the auto steer. It felt like it was always hunting. Just gently rocking continuously left and right. By contrast the Enyaq self driving was perfect.
Having just bought the Hyundai, which i do love. But i would add a category for being annoying to drive as it beeps and corrects my driving in a way that drives me bonkers. compared to my i3 which you just get in and drive, this has a matron conducting me and i find that the buttons to enable the cruise control stupid.
The one thing i will say is you have kind of skewered the entertainment package category by specifically focusing on Android Auto/Carplay. The Tesla has apps (i.e. spotify, tidal), games and other tools, and the ability to send nav from your phone to the car (similar to Google Maps) and uses Google Maps for navigation. I would at least score it a 1, even if it isn't exactly the same as AA/CP.
Maybe I missed it because of the LoLs… But did he mention the exact spec of the Skoda - loft, Lounge, sportline, etc and what addons? advanced, clever, maxx, etc. ta
I didnt quite understand rating the batterysize. Isnt efficienty and real world range more important than the sizeof the battery? This is in my opinion a way more important thing. Same as charging speeds (max KWH). The curve is more important and the time from lets say 10%-80%.
If I needed a family EV, I had a hard time to decide. Each has its advantages and disadvantages... though the Hyundai has mainly the really cool design for it...
Superb........thank you for making the effort for making these videos. I discounted the Hyundai due to giving me leg pain after 20 minutes driving, so Tesla was my favourite.
@@RSEV I would kill for more supportive seats in the M3P. The fact it has identical seats to all of the other trims is strange but in keeping with Tesla value engineering. I had a Peugeot e-2008 GT that was more supportive! I’m quietly hoping there will be a major refresh of the 3, with more supportive seats etc in the P. Ludicrous maybe? Needs relocated cameras for 360 view and better unprotected turn visibility, etc. It’s a pretty old platform now, over 4 years.
The MY is the best performing, the most efficient and the best packaged. It’s the only one you can make stress-free long distance journeys in. *It wins* (even before you consider the supercharger network)
I did a NL to Spain road trip in my EV6 this summer. It was stress free as well. Just ride on the Ionity wave and you pretty much do not have to think. 20 minute charging stops to 85-90% each time, easy.
All great cars, for me 1) Tesla Model Y 2) Hyundai 3) Skoda. The Skoda is surprisingly disappointing on the highway after 70 mph there is no power left.
@@Notagain640 If nothing else, then for safety. It is better to have the option of deciding between acceleration or deacceleration. If you only have braking is an option it may cause an accident.
@Arpedk I used to ride a 200mph motorbike, and back then I used to say that the power can get you into trouble, but can also get you out of it. However I don't feel that way in car. The enyaq seems plenty quick enough and I don't get myself or allow others to put me in a situation where accelerating hard above 70 mph is required to improve safety. But a guess we all have our own driving styles.
**Some points after watching this, knowing these cars quite well:** The Ioniq is not faster at charging on 400V, and most stations are at that voltage. It charges only slightly faster at 800V, but it’s a matter of less than 1 minute. Tesla has active matrix lights and controlable, so they are wrong about that. Missing with Tesla is that spare parts are much cheaper and there are no authorized dealer( just the manufacrorer) or forced fees to maintain the warranty. Tesla is also the only one without a 12V lead-acid battery (it has lithium instead). Same with the 360 cameras, they are in Tesla; it’s just that people who haven’t looked closely often don’t realize you can rotate the car on the screen. Apple CarPlay can also be added to Tesla (but I think most people don’t see the need for it). There is also a ski hatch in Tesla. They say no 12V socket in the trunk and no bag hooks, which is nonsense. Also, the rear panel has space underneath for things like cables and chargers that many people don’t realize. I agree with them about the seats in the Ioniq 5 Premium. Also, the price of Tesla with autopark is still less overall than the other cars.
how does the battery size compare to which gets better points? It should be either range or efficiency imo.. for example, if the hummer EV is compared, it has 212kWh so ideally it should get 9points but its range is only like 330miles which is on worse than the tesla..
What a daft, fun, informative video. Love it. On my Enyaq I love the auto pilot system (travel assist), the HUD, and having the choice of nav system on screen. I use ABRP for long trips and find it much better than the tesla system I had in my model 3 which was good but limited to the tesla network and therefore no use when in an area with no superchargers, eg northern Ireland. The Škoda nav though is garbage 😊
My enyaq came with 3.1 installed. All the trips we've done so far have been within single charge range. I have to say I've found the built in NAV just fine. Is it only trips that require a charge stop where you don't like the in built NAV or for all trips? Have you used 3.1 and if so, do you still not like the NAV?
@Enyaq Gorm - simply clever EV I've watched all your videos (which I've really enjoyed). Watching your experience of planning routes using abrp has been very informative. As I don't use the charging aspect of route planning, I don't know if its improved in 3.1 or not. I'll be interested to see your option of it when you get a chance to review it. But until then it's good to have the option of ABRP. Would I need to use an OBD dongle or can you just run the app. Also for infrequent use (3 or 4 times a year) can you get away without a subscription?
@@Notagain640 you can either use obd or link it to tronity. Both work well to read the car state of charge. Not sure if you need the sub to get it on android auto though. Glad the videos are useful, they take a bit of time to make so it's always nice to hear they've helped someone 😊
Ionic 5, here in Canada 77.4KW battery, great, fast charging great, ride quality great, interior comfort great, and the radar cruise works great (Tesla no longer, they dropped radar and dropped USS and that vision only is crap when using adaptive driving at night), I dropped Kia EV6 and Tesla.
What about the phone app for each? Heating the car from bed on a winters morning 👌(plus all the other functions). Thanks for that, love the comical touches 😂
I personally cannot handle bad tech so the Tesla just wins it based on that. A laggy and/or annoying touch screen would just kill me. Also, the continuous updates are a big win. I'd take the Tesla, but the SR version.
Brilliant. I especially like that you put the chart at the end so all can alter and tweak the scores (especially the opinion ones) to fit their needs. Speaking of opinions… re:Tesla 3/Y appearance. I’d say of the three you showed it wins, hands down. 2 reasons: 1) the outside matched the inside. You look at this car (I have a 3) from any angle and you’ll see right away this is not your dad’s Buick. It stands out as something different, inside or out. I like that. And 2) I really love that with the exterior, form follows function. It looks the way it does specifically because that’s how it achieves such a low wind resistance. That helps it achieve greater efficiency (my 3 is the SR+), which is a strong positive in my book. It hasn’t had a bunch of falderal, doodads, and nonsense slapped on it hither and yon just to make it look “good” or “cool.” It is the automotive equivalent of “ To thine own self be true.” So those are my thoughts. 😅
Whats the point of a large battery if its less efficient and doesn't go as far? I found the model Y more comfortable than the other two for tall drivers. Tesla nav is still good. Very subjective and not your best video. The Y has a 12v socket in the boot. Euro NCAP??? Tesla wins safest car on the road. My final 3 were Model Y, Enyaq and Mack E, based on driver space and height, car load capacity and range.
The point regarding battery size is exactly right. Battery size is an utterly pointless metric without also capturing efficiency. Richard has already devised the perfect EV metric - miles per minute of charging. That is BY FAR the most useful value regarding anything to do with battery, range, charging speed & ‘efficiency’.
Nice video once again, thanks. I bought a very basic Enyaq 60 last week and even though it lacks some must have features it is very nice car, spacious and solid car. But what impresses me the most is the efficiency, the other day I drove from Leicester to Doncaster and it averaged 4.1 miles per KWh with 3 people in and heating on. I do not think the ioniq 5 could even get close to it and of course tesla would be way more efficient I guess.
I have the iv80. My long term average is 4.3 and we regularly get 4.5 on journeys. Much more efficient than I expected. We don't drive over 60 most of the time though which helps a lot. Love the car though and despite coming last in this review, in my own assessment of a family car it was head and shoulders above the others.
@@Notagain640 I am so happy to hear you get this low consumption. I have been driving the car only for 10 days but next week we are going to Southampton so it is going to be a good test to drive it all the way from Doncaster. Does your car have heat pump?
@EV addicted 🚗 yes we have the heat pump. To be honest I'm expecting the efficiency to drop quite a bit when the very cold weather starts. My predicted range when the temp was 20C ish was 370-380 miles! Currently its 360-370. I know it's only a guess but so far we are getting these kind of figures. We also have 19" wheels, Drive in D mode mostly and accelerate and brake early and gently. Basically I try to maximise range as a sort of challenge. I was always seeing reviews of people complaining about EV range being much worse than WLPT, but I'm doing far better. However like any car I think you can do far worse if you have a heavy right foot.

I will go for the Enyaq. But with 12V socket in the boot and usb ports and window blinders in the rear seat row.
just a FYI, but the Enyaq back seat USB sockets are in an optional equipment package, used to be called "Family pack" , now "Plus pack with alarm" (in Finland at least). The pack also includes a 230V standard socket for powering laptops or what not. The 12V socket in the boot is/was also an option in the "Transport pack". Our Enyaq has these, quite convenient features. :) But perhaps this is also a bit of minus for the Enyaq that a lot of features are optional extras and additional cost, and the cheapest base cars are fairly basic.
Enyaq 80X Sportline owner here. Tried, and almost bought a MY, as the Enyaq delivery kept being delayed. The MY had great space for our 3 kids, superb stereo, fantastic user interface(once you get used to it - fairly quickly), mobile-app and charging network... but, poor lights, weird wipers(updated now, though), mediocre travel assist(over-reacting and needed very specific steering input), sweaty seats, no shade in the roof.
Really enjoy our Enyaq. The Sportline trim looks great(too me at least), and the lights, HUD and travel-assist(Plus package) are just superb(semi-punt intended). Ours came with the updated software, and runs well. The planning is much better, as is the UI in general... still room for improvements. Bi-directional charging should be added in future updates, as well as selective pre-heating of the battery(before charging).
The SKODA app lets you pre-heat/cool the car before leaving in the morning. Will be nice, when the winter is coming.
Tempted to order one in the same spec how is it holding up?
Skoda Enyaq would be my choice. Loved the unscientific, but highly entertaining review
Tesla's charging network is worth 20 points. You never have to worry even in unfamiliar territory. Unlike other cars that tell you a charging station is there, but it is on the other side of a French motorway. 15 kilometres to the exit and 15 back to the other side of the motorway.
I said the same thing watching the video - as everything outside of the Tesla network is a complete joke in the UK, an horrendous experience of dozens of different manufacturers with dodgy apps and broken interfaces, broken payment methods and way too many broken chargers. It's nothing but pain and suffering trying to charge on a long journey outside the Tesla supercharger network - it's just so bad in the UK that it makes owning an EV that isn't a Tesla a waste of time if you ever want to do a long journey.
Tesla has opened a handful of charging sites up to non Tesla's but it's only a small number and then many cars have issues as the Tesla supercharger cables are very short as they are designed for, unsurprisingly, Tesla's.
@@blower1Word is Tesla will make their chargers available to other Ev's...eventually.
That's a good point but like most things, it's very user specific. We only charge at home and never need the public charge network. Also with the increase in teslas on the road, there have been queues at some of the busier tesla chargers.
I have had zero issues with ABRP, gives more functionality than the tesla nav and when you're in an area with no superchargers it gives you options like ionity, porsche (my new favourites), fastned etc etc
@@blower1 I agree. We have an i3 120Ah which is fine for 95% of our trips, charging at home. It is fun to drive and small enough to make it easy to park etc.
We also have an ICE for our occasional long trips and tip runs but the total > 180m mile trips we do these days does not make it worth having a long range large EV. As you say, there is no way I would want to rely on the non-Tesla public charging network in the UK. I base this on the queues I now see at motorway services and the number of "not working" flags on ZapMap
Frequent OTA updates and the Tesla Supercharging network, plus the infotainment system push the Model Y into top place, in my opinion.
Yer and don’t forget reliable battery heating before rapid charging so even in - c. You still get good charging speed unlike the slow charging Ioniq by looks of peoples videos and the Tesla stuff just works great and constant updates like features it didn’t have when you buy it and ability to add stuff like eap after buy the car if you so wish and for us the best blend of driver fun speed and efficiently is a win for us after trying both others and ev6 and id3 but would have cupra born over id3 and ev6 over Ioniq 5 . But like was said so like bits when others hate bits it upto the people to decide what if most important.
latest ionics fast charging. also personal view by far the best looking
@@mattjarrett8868 cool so that finally got around to it in the end
I have test driven Skoda Enyaq and Tesla model Y. Sadly I haven't had a chance to drive the ioniq yet. I always wanted a Tesla but once I driven one I will definitely not be buying one. Too minimalistic with just one big screen. Not for me.
As soon as I sat in Skoda just loved the feel. So spacious with a huge boot space not to mention about the price. This is the car I would be happy to replace my MG4 in a future as the kids growing and will be needing more space.
Great review guys as always 👍very fair and informative as always ☺️
Love the 🍌 test 😄
I’ve had my model 3 for just over 2 years now. My only negative is a lack of buttons. Yes you can control it through the screen, all very high tech, but, a bit of a mission when you are driving. The voice activation function has a mind of its own. Everything else I love.
New model Y has a 12 volt in the rear and The model Y does not need a wiper blade on the rear, Torrential rain on the French motorways. Not one drop of rain on the rear screen. Amazing.
But what about all the dirt and grime that build up on the rear window ?
Not applicable in snow or when it is so cold that rain turns into ice at contact, or with trucks throwing mud and snow at it. It either rear wiper or rear mirror camera. Deal breaker for me. New Ioniq conceded and they have now one rear wiper
Biggest battery is a red herring. I want smallest battery for a given range. Double points for efficiency.
Fun review.
Brutally simple & honest - personal choice but this helps so much. Thanks Rich 👍🏽👊🏽
What a duo. Please more top trumps. This was so funny. Thanks, guys :)
The Enyaq is the only car here where you can fit a dog crate for medium sized dogs, so for dog owners the Skoda offers the most practical solution, also for shoppers, the boot hooks, you don't realise how much you appreciate them for securing your bags, until you change cars and no longer have them. It's a shame that it's the least interesting design. My next car (company) has to be BEV (likely be looking to order early in 2024), and the Enyaq is better than the ID4, cheaper and more practical than others in the class size. There's a new (more powerful and efficient) drive motor due out soon from VAG too, so hopefully they'll upgrade to that. That said, the upcoming ID7 looks interesting if the estate version fits the allowance offers by my employer 👍
I have only tried out the Skoda Enyaq and the Hyundai Ioniq and must admit that I found the Ioniq too futuristic for my preference and a bit too touchy. The Skoda has a solid feel to it and a big boot. Was happy to purchase it :-)
Tesla boot isn't actually larger than Škoda. They count in the underfloor storage but Škoda doesn't count it in. Also, the Škoda boot shape is waaay more practical.
Nice review, we run an Enyaq alongside our M3P, the 12v in the Enyaq is right hand side of the boot towards the top of the wheel arch behind a blank black cover.
I didn't know how valuable OTA updates would be until I switched brands to Tesla. Now I don't think I would switch to any brand that doesn't support such.
So could you please feedback on how the other two do OTA updates?
And you didn't mention apps ... and driver profiles ... which are features of the family car that my wife and I use all the time (not everyone would be sharing the driving as often as we so of course!).
You forgot the most important feature in these energyproblem times.... efficiency !!! - So guess who will win after this category ....;-) Tesla - and this is the top most important thing when you look at the energy prices !!! - Love your videos - greetings from Vienna !!!!
Erm, yes the Model Y does indeed have a 12V in the boot. Surprised you didn’t know that consider you own one! Also the sentry mode and 360 coverage cameras are worth a lot more points if you ask me!
This was actually quite helpful, 2 are in my shortlist for next car
I prefer a full spec Enyaq for many reasons that suits me. But Model Y is a good choice too.
The headlights on the Tesla are unforgivable for the price. I've got an older pre-matrix M3P, not that it matters since the newer cars only have matrix headlights in principal. They have been delivered with matrix-capable hardware since the start of 2021 - maybe even earlier - and absolutely nothing has happened with them in that time. I'm also a bit surprised you didn't go into how relatively useless automatic headlights and wipers are, relative to the other cars where I imagine it just works (like everything else built in the last 10 years).
I enjoy the performance in my M3P, and the efficiency, the minimalism and the useable space, but other manufacturers are bringing out better and better cars every year, whereas Tesla seem to be resting on their laurels because demand continues to outstrip supply. That won't endure forever.
Totally agree. I have the latest Model Y and my old model 3 headlights worked much better. My 7 year old Ford Mondeo had better auto lights and auto wipers than both of them.
Strange ... My Model Ys wipers and headlights are fine .... still early days for TESLA though, great to see an EV line up at this stage to easily challenge the current ICE market and more to come !
@@troyboy4345 My experience of the auto wipers has been mostly ok, but I’ve heard that even the slightest dirt or bug splatter around the cameras can cause it to dry wipe. You can’t turn off auto wipers on Autopilot with the latest updates either.
Auto headlights are woeful though, coming on in areas of decent ambient lighting from streetlights, not turning off quickly enough when faced with oncoming cars (~2 seconds blinding them is unacceptable), and not seeing distant rear red lights on another car before you’re too close (again blinding them). Mine also have a habit of turning off at reflections off road signs from time to time. Shambolic.
I’ve also heard of people on dual carriageways where they come on and blind the other side. There’s no reason for them to be so hopeless in this day and age. I’m not expecting German high end lighting, but a level of performance where I don’t have to hover-hand the stalk and be continually embarrassed at blinding people would be nice.
I have a facelift MS. The matrix headlights on that are not a patch on my previous car - a 12 year old BMW 530 touring. They both light the way nicely when you turn a corner, but the straight ahead lighting is just disappointing on the MS. It didn't help that they came woefully adjusted from Tesla as a used purchase, but even adjusted they are a bit 'meh'.
My 2010 c class has better auto wipers than my 22 m3, m3 lights are much better though, but then there are 12 years difference between the two cars.
Brilliant videos so much detail I'm using your knowledge to buy my first EV I think the hyunadi
Interesting how different the markets are. Base spec Ioniq 5 in New Zealand (58kwh) with literally NO features (not even memory seat for driver) is the same price as Model Y RWD (SR+). Larger battery + all the specs makes it more than the MYP. Had a Ioniq 5 for less than 6 months and sold it when the Y became available in NZ.
I had a deposit down on the ioniq5 and didn’t go ahead because the price relative to the Uk was about $10-$15k more. Didn’t buy on principle. In nz Hyundai is more expensive than Kia EV6 and that’s the opposite everywhere else.
Now I know about the efficiency I’m glad I went Model Y…although I miss car play!
Great video, thank you so much for a good review. Love the fun you guys make in this😆
Excellent comparison Mr Symons !
even coming from an electric car specialist!
congratulations and Health and Prosperity to everyone on the Channel!
Great job, but why give points for the biggest battery if you dont get more Range because of bad efficiency. Just dont get it.
Invaluable comparison. Thank you
Fun and useful addition to the usual reviews
I really enjoyed this video. After doing 8,000 miles in 4 months in my model Y I’m still unearthing features… I use my car for work, driving on a cross section of all roads. Now having a home charger the range of the model Y has eliminated my use of any other chargers so reducing my initial range anxiety to zero. Handling, braking and on road comfort are all very good, as is its performance. Tyre wear seems about right the standard Hankook EV’S will need to be replaced at around 16-17k in my estimation. The car is now easy to live with however it took a while after covering over 1.5 million miles in ICE vehicles.
The rear seat comfort section was incredibly more thorough than any other reviews. I've yet to find another review where the depth of the rear seat cushion is mentioned, as its quite important for comfort.
For a hatchback car in 2021 not to have a rear wiper in rainy U.K. isn’t clever thinking even if the designers say they aren’t necessary, they are here!
Not needed on a Tesla. It never gets any spray on it and in 2000 miles 300 in torrential rain, it never needed cleaning.
@Keith Denton the i5 does suffer as its a hatchback style. Whereas the tesla has very different geometry and does properly clear rain. I found the i5 to be a disaster of a design without a rear wiper.
You got your wish, 2025
You missed the Skodas biggest storage place in the front seats. Its under the center console. So i actually think that the Skoda has way more space in the front seats than the Tesla.
Safety??? The biggest and most critical concern for me as a family car buyer is "will it keep my family safe?". Not power in the boot area or whether I have to press a start button.
I didn't hear you mention the OTA capabilities. Not sure how the non-tesla's are updated and how often but to me this is a huge plus for the Tesla.
Can be positive but also be a negative if you look at what they’ve done to the radar
What about the passive crash safety score?
Euro NCAP tests...
In UK, insurance wise the Enyaq is in cat 28e while Teslas are cat 50 which means you will pay significantly higher for the insurance.
Brilliant comparison of 3 good family cars. Has a Skoda Enyaq 80x (4x4), as a family car. Likes the driving layout and comfort, light and not least pade shift behind the steering wheel, which allows for active driving. The car has more than enough engine power.
Could imagine V2L and dogmode functionality.
My enyag has usb c and 220v in the back seat + 12v in the trunk.
There is 12v in the back of the Tesla Model Y. I've got the 72 plate and its on the left below the manual charger release.
You don't mention the lithium ion 12 v battery on model Y , which should provide more reliability for auxiliaries over the life and use of car
12:55 For Enyaq there is option for 3rd climate zone at rear seats with temperature setting, seat heating, 2 USB C, 230 V socket at console at rear. LOL for alternative ski hatch usage.
The excellent comparison !! Thank you a lot :-)
I have a model 3 and totally agree with you about the seats!
Interesting. My M3 seats are the most comfortable I've ever sat in. They make long journeys a breeze.
@@richardthomas6875 as they say you need to get out more.
Tesla makes their own seats. The others farm production out.
There is a 12 volt socket (180 watts) in the rear of the model Y.
I was considering these three and have spent half a year testing them and reading/watching reviews. They all cost around €60k in Norway with awd, large battery and highly specked out.
In the end I chose Model Y because of luggage space (Ioniq5 lost out because of that and the cheap screen setup), Supercharger network, best range and performance. I almost chose the Enyaq because of the missing HUD and dash on the Tesla, but the fact that pretty much all options are included (Model Y seems “future proof” with updates) it won. The Kia EV6 is even smaller than the Ioniq5 so it was never in contention for our active family, even though I like the interior.
As a bonus and pat on the back for doing great research, I added the Performance package😁 Having a family car that can beat all my childhood bedroom posters from 0-60 is just insane. Cost is only €4k and I’m pretty sure it will be useful when I sell the car.
Hi Jon you make some interesting points and you’ve obviously done a ton of research
Can I just ask you the range of the iconic compare to the model y long range seems surprisingly good
I found this baffling because the iconic looks not good aerodynamically
Do you have any light to shed on this could it be battery chemistry or is there something I’m missing much appreciate your response in advance thanks Kelvin
I am Sorry but model y is so Ugly .
Would have loved to hear which one you actually would prefer as well, numbers are fine but overall feel is more important in my book. Thanks for a great review though!
11:31 It would have been nice to include the analogues in this comparison: the mirrors. Are they showing you what you need? Is the letterbox out the rear tiny, but do the wing mirrors tilt down, self dimming, convex side mirrors, things like that?
My Model Y LR 22 plate, has a rear 12v socket ... maybe you chaps missed it ... or it's not on the 72 plate ... ? Top job as ever.
Same here. MY22. 12v in rear left corner of boot.
Id like to see a range test with these refreshed models 🤞
We seriously considered all 3 of these and because of the occasional long distance journeys we do we got the Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate AWD and absolutely love it, the other 2 just can't touch it for the comfort sitting in the front or rear. The Tesla was a close 2nd though because of the boot and efficency. For the money and the cost of all the options, the Skoda really doesn't cut it for us.
Was the Skoda smaller than Ioniq?
2022 Model Y LR has the LG 79 kWh (useable) 5L battery....not the LG 75 kWh which was the old one.
My 19th Feb 2022 launch day Model Y does have a boot 12v but no parcel shelf.
For those not driving these, what is the reality of the highway cabin noise? I read some testimonials that Tesla and Hyundai are quite noisy inside. Don't know about the Skoda, it should be more or less like the VW ID4? One guy described the sound you getbfrom the Hyundai as some constant drilling noise or something like that. Thanks.
I've tested the Model Y and it's quite noisy. I have yet to test the other cars.
Cancelled an i5 order and went for the Enyaq. Love it. No regrets. The I5 had too many annoying things for me hence the cancellation. Still a nice car though. The model y didn't offer me anything more for what I am looking for and was a lot more expensive. Enyaq was an easy choice.
Can you please tell me what you found annoying? I am thinking of buying one my self
@dreamer-Ba as mentioned, I think the i5 is a good car. However, I live in the UK and no rear wiper on a hatchback geometry will be really annoying for 4-6 months of the year. On my test drive I couldn't see through the rear window at all when the sun hit it at any angle. Many are not bothered by this, but I found it really annoying. The door handles are annoying. I don't like the tesla ones either, but they seem worse than the tesla ones. You have to explain to someone who's never been in the car how they work and my parents who have arthritis would need me to get out and open the door every time. I couldn't just pull over and pick them up. Even the ones that auto pop out are not very good when they get frozen in the winter. I'm just not a fan of flush handles. They are a solution to a problem that doesn't exist and just create new and unnecessary problems. I was only being offered a matt gold paint, which was more expensive, and makes maintenance/repair more difficult and expensive. The speedo was partially obscured by the steering wheel with no way to move it. Its off to one side but i think it should be in the centre where its clearly visible. The arrangement seems to have been designed to look good rather than be useful. The turning circle is not very good compared to the Enyaq. The large battery was still not very big and hyundai seemed uncertain if they were going to make it bigger in the UK market. The boot was noticeably smaller than the Enyaq and we have lots of camping gear. None of these was a show stopper by themselves, but add them up and put a 50k price tag on it and I wasn't happy. When I looked at the Enyaq it had none of these annoyances and it was the same price. On the plus side, I did like the drive in the i5 and it does feel more futuristic than the enyaq. I know lots of people rave about them, but for 50k I didn't want lots of little annoyances. As a family car the Enyaq was much better for us and having had it for 2 months now, I know I made the right choice. Many people wouldn't be at all bothered by things I've mentioned, so the i5 will be the right car for them. Its VERY subjective. You need to test drive them all and others if you have the time.
I forgot the other thing I don't like about the i5 was the auto steer. It felt like it was always hunting. Just gently rocking continuously left and right. By contrast the Enyaq self driving was perfect.
Weird my 71 plate Model Y does have a rear 12volt socket in the boot perhaps newer versions don't have it?
Hello, I am having massive problems with my 2022 Ioniq 5, Been at the dealership for three weeks.
Having just bought the Hyundai, which i do love. But i would add a category for being annoying to drive as it beeps and corrects my driving in a way that drives me bonkers. compared to my i3 which you just get in and drive, this has a matron conducting me and i find that the buttons to enable the cruise control stupid.
The one thing i will say is you have kind of skewered the entertainment package category by specifically focusing on Android Auto/Carplay. The Tesla has apps (i.e. spotify, tidal), games and other tools, and the ability to send nav from your phone to the car (similar to Google Maps) and uses Google Maps for navigation. I would at least score it a 1, even if it isn't exactly the same as AA/CP.
Great video chaps. Ultimately tesla charger network puts the Tesla as my number 1. 👍⚡🌿
Maybe I missed it because of the LoLs… But did he mention the exact spec of the Skoda - loft, Lounge, sportline, etc and what addons? advanced, clever, maxx, etc. ta
Great video mate I don't have any but enjoy watching 👌
I didnt quite understand rating the batterysize. Isnt efficienty and real world range more important than the sizeof the battery? This is in my opinion a way more important thing. Same as charging speeds (max KWH). The curve is more important and the time from lets say 10%-80%.
If I needed a family EV, I had a hard time to decide. Each has its advantages and disadvantages... though the Hyundai has mainly the really cool design for it...
12v socket in the boot of all enyaqs on the right hand side. Should have gone to specsavers 😂
No grade for performance and efficiency?
We covered performance. We’ve done lots to compare efficiency in other videos.
Weightings?
Charging network v Banana holder 🤔
Superb........thank you for making the effort for making these videos. I discounted the Hyundai due to giving me leg pain after 20 minutes driving, so Tesla was my favourite.
See that’s the point isn’t it. It’s the other way around for me so it’s very subjective!
@@RSEV I would kill for more supportive seats in the M3P. The fact it has identical seats to all of the other trims is strange but in keeping with Tesla value engineering. I had a Peugeot e-2008 GT that was more supportive!
I’m quietly hoping there will be a major refresh of the 3, with more supportive seats etc in the P. Ludicrous maybe? Needs relocated cameras for 360 view and better unprotected turn visibility, etc. It’s a pretty old platform now, over 4 years.
My is a month old model 3 LG and I ordered ID 4 for family which should arrive very fast at the end of the years already (ordered in august).
Love the video but what’s going on with teslas parking, there’s no front parking sensors? Is there going to be an update for this? Cheere
The MY is the best performing, the most efficient and the best packaged.
It’s the only one you can make stress-free long distance journeys in. *It wins* (even before you consider the supercharger network)
I did a NL to Spain road trip in my EV6 this summer. It was stress free as well. Just ride on the Ionity wave and you pretty much do not have to think. 20 minute charging stops to 85-90% each time, easy.
Interested that your MY doesn't have a rear 12v socket? MY March MY has one on left side in the rear, has this been deleted on later cars??
I really like the pair person video. And also a lot more fun with jokes. The man which is not Richard is so funny
All great cars, for me 1) Tesla Model Y 2) Hyundai 3) Skoda. The Skoda is surprisingly disappointing on the highway after 70 mph there is no power left.
But for a family car how much more power do you need above 70? I don't drive mine over 60, no point.
@@Notagain640 If nothing else, then for safety. It is better to have the option of deciding between acceleration or deacceleration. If you only have braking is an option it may cause an accident.
@Arpedk I used to ride a 200mph motorbike, and back then I used to say that the power can get you into trouble, but can also get you out of it. However I don't feel that way in car. The enyaq seems plenty quick enough and I don't get myself or allow others to put me in a situation where accelerating hard above 70 mph is required to improve safety. But a guess we all have our own driving styles.
**Some points after watching this, knowing these cars quite well:**
The Ioniq is not faster at charging on 400V, and most stations are at that voltage. It charges only slightly faster at 800V, but it’s a matter of less than 1 minute.
Tesla has active matrix lights and controlable, so they are wrong about that.
Missing with Tesla is that spare parts are much cheaper and there are no authorized dealer( just the manufacrorer) or forced fees to maintain the warranty.
Tesla is also the only one without a 12V lead-acid battery (it has lithium instead).
Same with the 360 cameras, they are in Tesla; it’s just that people who haven’t looked closely often don’t realize you can rotate the car on the screen.
Apple CarPlay can also be added to Tesla (but I think most people don’t see the need for it).
There is also a ski hatch in Tesla.
They say no 12V socket in the trunk and no bag hooks, which is nonsense. Also, the rear panel has space underneath for things like cables and chargers that many people don’t realize.
I agree with them about the seats in the Ioniq 5 Premium.
Also, the price of Tesla with autopark is still less overall than the other cars.
Today Oct 20, like clockwork Hyundia just updated my Ionic 5 order, with an actual VIN number, should be here in 2 weeks!
how does the battery size compare to which gets better points? It should be either range or efficiency imo.. for example, if the hummer EV is compared, it has 212kWh so ideally it should get 9points but its range is only like 330miles which is on worse than the tesla..
Our (french registered) Model Y has a 12v outlet in the boot, left hand side. Surprised that a UK car does not?
What a daft, fun, informative video. Love it. On my Enyaq I love the auto pilot system (travel assist), the HUD, and having the choice of nav system on screen. I use ABRP for long trips and find it much better than the tesla system I had in my model 3 which was good but limited to the tesla network and therefore no use when in an area with no superchargers, eg northern Ireland. The Škoda nav though is garbage 😊
My enyaq came with 3.1 installed. All the trips we've done so far have been within single charge range. I have to say I've found the built in NAV just fine. Is it only trips that require a charge stop where you don't like the in built NAV or for all trips? Have you used 3.1 and if so, do you still not like the NAV?
@@Notagain640 still on 2.4 so the nav will ignore say a 350 kW charger and insist you use a 7kW charger just because it's closer. It's utter garbage
@Enyaq Gorm - simply clever EV I've watched all your videos (which I've really enjoyed). Watching your experience of planning routes using abrp has been very informative. As I don't use the charging aspect of route planning, I don't know if its improved in 3.1 or not. I'll be interested to see your option of it when you get a chance to review it. But until then it's good to have the option of ABRP. Would I need to use an OBD dongle or can you just run the app. Also for infrequent use (3 or 4 times a year) can you get away without a subscription?
@@Notagain640 you can either use obd or link it to tronity. Both work well to read the car state of charge. Not sure if you need the sub to get it on android auto though.
Glad the videos are useful, they take a bit of time to make so it's always nice to hear they've helped someone 😊
Ionic 5, here in Canada 77.4KW battery, great, fast charging great, ride quality great, interior comfort great, and the radar cruise works great (Tesla no longer, they dropped radar and dropped USS and that vision only is crap when using adaptive driving at night), I dropped Kia EV6 and Tesla.
Yep, and going to 84 2025
Honestly, the Skoda is the only "real" SUV of the 3.
The other two are kind of fat hatchbacks more than anything else if you ask me.
hi did you see the tweet from elon saying new model y/3 has more comfortable suspension. hopefully you can compare soon when you get one
not sure what this is lol
There is a 12V socket in the luggage compartment of the Tesla Model Y, LH side behind rear lights.
Thanks for another great video.
Am I correct latest Model Y now got better suspension?
What about the phone app for each? Heating the car from bed on a winters morning 👌(plus all the other functions).
Thanks for that, love the comical touches 😂
I have the choice of a RWD model 3 and an Ioniq 5 Namsan RWD for my car through work but don't know which one to go for 😫😫
In my neck of the woods it’s a no contest, Ioniq 5, it $30k less than the model y long range for the fully loaded one.
When are Tesla going to install adaptive cup holders??
Doesn't the Model Y have a 12V outlet in the back too?
I personally cannot handle bad tech so the Tesla just wins it based on that. A laggy and/or annoying touch screen would just kill me. Also, the continuous updates are a big win. I'd take the Tesla, but the SR version.
That’s one of the things that pushed us from a Ford Mustang Mach E to a Tesla. I don’t want to be touching a laggy screen while using my car.
@@ToddLloyd Exactly. It's a bit bonkers that a $50 smartphone can do better.
Brilliant. I especially like that you put the chart at the end so all can alter and tweak the scores (especially the opinion ones) to fit their needs.
Speaking of opinions… re:Tesla 3/Y appearance. I’d say of the three you showed it wins, hands down. 2 reasons: 1) the outside matched the inside. You look at this car (I have a 3) from any angle and you’ll see right away this is not your dad’s Buick. It stands out as something different, inside or out. I like that. And 2) I really love that with the exterior, form follows function. It looks the way it does specifically because that’s how it achieves such a low wind resistance. That helps it achieve greater efficiency (my 3 is the SR+), which is a strong positive in my book. It hasn’t had a bunch of falderal, doodads, and nonsense slapped on it hither and yon just to make it look “good” or “cool.” It is the automotive equivalent of “ To thine own self be true.”
So those are my thoughts. 😅
Whats the point of a large battery if its less efficient and doesn't go as far? I found the model Y more comfortable than the other two for tall drivers. Tesla nav is still good. Very subjective and not your best video. The Y has a 12v socket in the boot.
Euro NCAP??? Tesla wins safest car on the road.
My final 3 were Model Y, Enyaq and Mack E, based on driver space and height, car load capacity and range.
The point regarding battery size is exactly right. Battery size is an utterly pointless metric without also capturing efficiency. Richard has already devised the perfect EV metric - miles per minute of charging. That is BY FAR the most useful value regarding anything to do with battery, range, charging speed & ‘efficiency’.
Thanks for the great information. Ioniq5 seems interesting.
Nice video once again, thanks. I bought a very basic Enyaq 60 last week and even though it lacks some must have features it is very nice car, spacious and solid car. But what impresses me the most is the efficiency, the other day I drove from Leicester to Doncaster and it averaged 4.1 miles per KWh with 3 people in and heating on. I do not think the ioniq 5 could even get close to it and of course tesla would be way more efficient I guess.
I have the iv80. My long term average is 4.3 and we regularly get 4.5 on journeys. Much more efficient than I expected. We don't drive over 60 most of the time though which helps a lot. Love the car though and despite coming last in this review, in my own assessment of a family car it was head and shoulders above the others.
@@Notagain640 I am so happy to hear you get this low consumption. I have been driving the car only for 10 days but next week we are going to Southampton so it is going to be a good test to drive it all the way from Doncaster. Does your car have heat pump?
@EV addicted 🚗 yes we have the heat pump. To be honest I'm expecting the efficiency to drop quite a bit when the very cold weather starts. My predicted range when the temp was 20C ish was 370-380 miles! Currently its 360-370. I know it's only a guess but so far we are getting these kind of figures. We also have 19" wheels, Drive in D mode mostly and accelerate and brake early and gently. Basically I try to maximise range as a sort of challenge. I was always seeing reviews of people complaining about EV range being much worse than WLPT, but I'm doing far better. However like any car I think you can do far worse if you have a heavy right foot.
@@Notagain640 this is quite good, the range on the gom you get 370-380 miles.
I've got a range test video on my channel comparing the enyaq with the project 45 and there's no contest. Enyaq won
Thank you, really useful comparisons 👍
It’s a Project 45 which you can’t now even buy. Solar roof no longer available. So that’s a point off
