New Tesla Model Y squares up to Skoda Enyaq in family EV showdown!
Quick steering and a more rear-biased drive set-up make the Tesla seem agile
Minimalist Tesla interior feels solidly built overall and provides good space
Skoda's front end will tend to run wide of the apex if you push hard
Skoda's cabin creates a slightly more upmarket ambience and is roomy

Tesla's in a spot of bother. Its sales across Europe have dropped and profits have taken an even more vertiginous slump.
Adding to its woes was the recent news that it was forced to issue its eighth (yes, you read that right) recall of its cubist Cybertruck, this time to remedy its propensity for shedding stainless steel bodywork.
So what's going on? If you look at many of the headlines, the finger points directly at the company's controversialist CEO, Elon Musk.
His appetite for attracting attention of the wrong kind certainly hasn't helped lure customers into showrooms – although it has created a cottage industry in 'not in my name' bumper stickers – but as ever the answer is, well, more complicated than that.
For starters, there's the current tariff situation. Then there's the fact that Tesla is actually more of a tech company than a car firm, which brings its own challenges.
Like a smartphone manufacturer, it's all about the software, and in this respect it's one of the best in the business, streets ahead of the legacy brands (and that also includes its understanding of battery chemistry).
Yet this means it doesn't follow some of the tried and tested methods of the established practitioners, such as model cycles that include visually appealing mid-life refreshes designed to persuade people to part with their cash for cars that might otherwise be getting close to their sell-by date.
By contrast, Tesla's line-up comes across visually as a bit old hat, as if the company has been peddling the same, unchanged product from day one. The recent Model 3 'Highland' is a case in point. It's a thoroughly overhauled car, but to the casual observer it could just as easily be the 2017 original.
The same can be said of the Model S and Model X, which have both benefited from top to bottom technical titivation but are indistinguishable from their decade-old progenitors.
However, the stakes are higher for the Model Y, which is the brand's best-seller and until very recently topped the sales charts across Europe. As a result, Tesla has taken a leaf out of rivals' books and delivered a facelift that will leave buyers in no doubt this is a box-fresh proposition.
Speaking of which, the Tesla isn't the only family-sized all-electric EV to have gone under the knife. The Skoda Enyaq Coupé (and its more sensible SUV sibling) has always been one of our favourite protagonists in this corner of the market, and five years on from its debut the Czech machine has been treated to the industry-standard nip and tuck.
Looks are clearly subjective but, to our eyes, Tesla's tweaks are more eye-catching. You can see the DNA of the original car between the A- and C-pillars, but at the front there's a Cybertruck-inspired nose complete with a pencil-thin LED light bar, while the rear features a neat-looking, indirectly lit, full-width tail-light.
By contrast, Skoda has grafted its bold new 'Tech-Deck' nose onto the Enyaq, but the rest of the car's appearance has been left largely untouched. It's a similar story inside, where the Skoda looks and feels very much the same as the old car.
There's a revised 13in infotainment screen that looks slicker and responds more swiftly but otherwise it's business as usual. This means that, unlike in the Model Y, you do get some handy physical shortcut keys and a separate display ahead of the driver for speed and range information.
As ever, the Tesla's dashboard is dominated by its centrally mounted infotainment screen, which literally controls all of the car's major functions (although, unlike in the Model 3, there is an actual column stalk for the indicators. Hallelujah!). Still, the set-up is one of the best around, proving a doddle to navigate and always responding crisply to your demands.
It's sufficiently good that you almost don't miss the odd button or two. With its greater mix of rich materials and more complex dashboard and door mouldings, the Skoda's cabin looks a little more upmarket than the Model Y's, but in terms of touchy-feely perceived quality, there's little to separate the two.
In fact, it's the uplift in solidity that you notice most in the starkly minimalist cabin of the Tesla. There are still some areas of the car that look a little hand-finished – the cheap LED spotlight in the boot and the thin fabric covering the A-pillar-mounted tweeters – but overall the Model Y is full of appealing materials and exhibits a tight fit and finish.
The Tesla also scores strongly for space and versatility, which is surely one of the biggest considerations with cars like these.
There's a large load area with plenty of underfloor storage compartments, plus the trademark 117-litre frunk. (The Skoda's bonnet lifts to reveal various EV ancillaries but no space for luggage overspill from its 570-litre boot.)Rear occupants in the Model Y also have plenty of head and leg room, while a powered reclining backrest and completely flat floor add to the feeling of comfort.
What's more, the addition of a small touchscreen now allows occupants to adjust the temperature and switch on their heated seats without having to issue orders to the driver.
Up front, the sense of space is enhanced by the low scuttle and large windscreen, which helps deliver a more panoramic view of the road than in the Skoda. However, this Sportline-trim Enyaq hits back with heavily bolstered front seats that offer greater support.
Grab the tape measure and you'll find the Enyaq pretty much matches the Model Y for accommodation. Where the Skoda edges ahead is in those thoughtful details that have become a calling card for the Czech brand, such as the umbrellas secreted in the front doors and the multitude of handy boot dividers, hooks and nets.
That said, you're unlikely to run out of room for odds and ends in the Model Y, with its large, carpeted door bins, cupholders galore and a lidded cubby between the front seats that's so deep you'll need to send Lassie for help if you ever fall in.
So it's even-stevens for practicality, but what about performance and poise? Once again, our two dual-motor contenders are separated by the width of a Tesla key card, but they go about their business in slightly different ways. If outright urge is your thing, though, the Model Y is a slam-dunk choice.
With 375bhp and a lower, 1997kg kerb weight, the Tesla is seriously rapid and feels especially so in Sport mode, when its throttle response is even sharper. The 282bhp Enyaq, with a claimed 0-62mph of 6.7sec, is no slouch but it's left gasping in its rival's wake on a straight road.
Throw some corners into the mix and there's less clear air between the two. With its quick, albeit lifeless, steering, the Tesla feels more agile – an impression exaggerated by a rear-biased power delivery that allows you to tighten your cornering line with a dose of throttle.
Special mention also has to go to the new brake-by-wire set-up, which offers a firm pedal and plenty of progression.
With its slower but better-weighted steering, the Skoda feels a little lazier in its reactions, its narrower-section front tyres gently squealing into safe understeer at the limit.
Yet despite its heftier kerb weight, the Enyaq feels better tied down over bumpier stretches of Tarmac, containing body movements more effectively than the Tesla, which can hop and corkscrew a little when pressing on. Traction isn't a problem for either all-wheel-drive vehicle.
The Skoda maintains a narrow advantage when it comes to cruising comfort. Both have firm low-speed rides – although the newly softened Tesla is much better here than its predecessor – that calm down at speed, and while each delivers decent refinement, the Enyaq does a marginally better job of isolating you from road and wind noise.
You can also tailor the regen brake assistance in each – a first for Tesla – although the Model Y has a more effective one-pedal calibration.
As you would expect, both cars have driver aids galore – and you'll be either fine or frustrated with that depending on your point of view. On the plus side, turning off the lane keeping assistance is a doddle in either car and the other systems are as unobtrusive as they get these days.
Mind you, because the Model Y uses plenty of cameras (the Enyaq favours radar), its various warnings become increasingly inconsistent as each lens becomes coated with road grime.
So we have established that each of these cars is practical, delivers all the performance you're ever likely to need and, while you're unlikely to pick either for a dawn raid on your favourite roads, they both steer and stop with admirable accuracy and agility. Tesla Model Y vs Skoda Enyaq Coupe: Verdict
Ultimately, then, it comes down to the numbers – and again the margins are tight, although the more cost-effective contender probably isn't the one you would expect.
When it comes to claimed range, the Model Y totes a figure of 364 miles as standard, reduced to 353 miles with the optional wheels of our test car, while the Skoda stretches to 334 miles.
Thanks to Tesla's mastery of battery chemistry, motor efficiency and (relatively) lightweight construction methods, the Model Y gets closer to its WLTP numbers in real-world use. Over the course of our test, it delivered an impressive efficiency return of 3.8mpkWh, whereas the Enyaq could manage only 3.4mpkWh.
Then there's the thorny issue of cash. In Long Range AWD form, the Tesla's sticker price is £51,990, a scant £1330 more than the Enyaq. Yet nobody turns up to a dealer with a suitcase full of banknotes for cars like these: they plonk down a deposit and finance the rest.
Put your pen to a PCP deal and over four years you'll shell out £499 a month for the Model Y and £527 for the Skoda. Again, not that much in it, but there's something significant about Tesla getting one over on a brand famed for delivering value for money.
Are these cost savings enough to swing the result in favour of the Model Y? By the tightest of margins, we would say yes. Sure, Tesla has some PR issues bubbling away in the background, but as a spacious, sensible and swift family wagon that packs genuinely innovative engineering, the new Model Y makes a compelling choice.
Maybe that will give Elon something to smile about.
1st. Tesla Model Y
The revised Tesla Model Y fixes most of its predecessor's flaws yet retains its efficiency, performance and impressive practicality.
2nd. Skoda Enyaq Coupe
It's a close-run thing for the Skoda Enyaq, which in facelifted form remains a refined, thoughtfully designed and thoroughly likeable car.

Angela Rayner blocked from allowing councils to tax tourists
Angela Rayner pushed for councils to be given powers to tax tourists as part of the government's devolution agenda but was rebuffed by the Treasury. The deputy prime minister wanted to give directly elected mayors the ability to charge their own taxes on hotel stays as part of the government's Devolution Bill, published earlier this month. However, the move, first reported by The Daily Telegraph, was rebuffed by Rachel Reeves, the chancellor, amid fears that it could reduce revenues for businesses already struggling with higher national insurance taxes and rises in the minimum wage. A spokesman for Rayner's department did not deny the rift, saying only that there were 'currently no plans to introduce a tourism tax in England'. Many European cities, including Barcelona, Lisbon, Venice and Amsterdam, charge tourists a tax on the cost of hotel rooms and private rentals, either as a flat rate or percentage of the room charge. Cities in Scotland have their own tax-raising powers. Visitors to Edinburgh and Glasgow will pay 5 per cent on hotel stays from July next year and January 2027 respectively. Andy Burnham, the Labour mayor of Greater Manchester, is among the local leaders pushing to be allowed to charge more in England, while Sir Sadiq Khan, the London mayor, has suggested he would be open to a tourist tax in the capital that would provide more revenue for local projects. Last month, both mayors signed a joint letter with their counterparts in Liverpool, the North East, West Yorkshire and the West Midlands, calling for 'Barcelona-style' tourist tax. • The Sunday Times view: Business is an easy target for tax. Ministers should resist News of the disagreement over a tourism levy came as polling suggested the public would support a new tax regime to attract wealthy foreigners to the UK, provided they use private schools and private healthcare. In total, 67 per cent of people — and 69 per cent of Labour voters — supported special tax treatment for high net-worth investors, according to a report published on Tuesday. A majority of the population said they believed Britain should allow more of the world's wealthiest investors into the country, but only if they make a contribution to the economy and its public finances. Some 66 per cent thought part of that contract should be that foreign investors are banned from using the NHS or the state education system. The survey results were contained in a report jointly published by Onward, a think tank set up by the former Conservative MP Sir Simon Clarke, and the Adam Smith Institute, the free-market campaign group. Called The Prosperity Package, the report calls for a new tax regime for global investors to help stop the exodus of wealth from the UK. Britain is estimated to have lost a quarter of its billionaires over the past two years and is expected to lose a record 16,500 millionaires this year, according to research published over the past month. The acceleration in wealth migration since Labour came to power follows Reeves's decision to abolish the non-domiciled tax regime and apply inheritance tax to family businesses and farms. The old non-dom regime allowed wealthy foreigners who had lived in Britain for more than seven years to avoid paying UK taxes on their worldwide earnings in exchange for a fee starting at £30,000 a year. In its place, Labour introduced a new residence-based system that makes wealthy foreigners pay UK tax on their global earnings after living in the UK for four years, while their worldwide assets become subject to UK inheritance tax after ten years. • Surge in wealthy using insurance to beat inheritance tax hit The authors of The Prosperity Package report suggest an alternative that they believe would boost growth and increase tax revenue by attracting global investors to the UK. Under their scheme, wealthy foreigners would be allowed to move to the UK and keep their global assets, income and gains away from the taxman for 15 years in exchange for an annual fee of £300,000. In addition, applicants would be required to invest a minimum of £3 million into one of eight government-designated 'Industrial Strategy Sectors', delivering cash into areas such as clean energy, the life sciences, and digital technologies. Those who apply to the scheme would also have 'no recourse to public funds' and be required to take out private health insurance and educate their children in the private school system. When the proposed scheme was put to a representative sample of 2,000 Britons, it was supported by 53 per cent of respondents and opposed by only 15 per cent. • Non-dom crackdown 'could leave £4bn hole in public finances' The report says that modelling of the regime suggests that if implemented and taken up by 1,000 people, it would give a £30 billion boost to the economy after ten years and raise a cumulative £13 billion in extra tax revenues. The proposal has similarities to the previous Conservative government's Tier 1 investor visa scheme, which required applicants to invest a minimum of £2 million in either UK government bonds, British shares or loans to UK-registered companies. That scheme was abolished in 2022 after being criticised for being open to abuse by allowing foreigners with questionable sources of wealth to gain residency. The authors of The Prosperity Package report say their proposal would raise more tax revenue and they propose stricter checks on applicants. • Why the super-rich are leaving Britain Maxwell Marlow, of the Adam Smith Institute and author of the report, said: 'The public are clear — they want fairness, not a fortress. If the wealthy contribute significantly and don't draw on the state, most voters are open to their investment. Our proposal meets this test and puts Britain back in the race to attract global capital.' The plan has already attracted some cross-party support. Lord Mendelsohn, the Labour peer and the party's former business and trade spokesman in the House of Lords, said: 'I do not agree with some colleagues that we should wave goodbye to the wealthy; we should be doing whatever we can to welcome them back, and new investors, entrepreneurs, and high spenders to our shores. 'Crucially though, they must contribute to Britain, rather than just using it.'

Could your summer holiday be greener? Government invests £63m into more sustainable types of jet fuel
The government is investing £63m in new types of jet fuel that it hopes will make your summer holiday a little more eco-friendly - though not everyone is convinced. The cash will be shared by 17 British companies developing different types of "sustainable aviation fuel" (SAF), made from materials including forest cuttings, household rubbish, sugar beet or hydrogen gas. Ministers said the funds could support 1,400 jobs, add £5bn to the economy and help the British industry get ahead as global demand for SAF soars in order to meet stricter climate targets. But campaigners question how sustainable these fuels really are, saying the real answer is to deter "frequent flying". They warn the materials needed for sustainable fuels are hard to come by and too expensive to ever scale up. Industry says it needs this cash injection precisely in order to lower costs and grow, and global demand is booming. 1:55 As of January, flights taking off from the UK must use 2% SAF in their fuel, under new government rules. This will gradually rise to 10% in 2030 and 22% in 2040. But there have been alarm bells warning not enough SAF will be available to meet those targets. The government says sustainable fuels cut emissions of greenhouse gases by 70% on average compared with kerosene over the course of its life, which includes producing it and burning it. Aviation minister Mike Kane said: "We're not just backing brilliant British innovation, we're creating thousands of high-skilled jobs and positioning the UK at the forefront of the global sustainable aviation market." He said the move would "kickstart economic growth, secure energy independence, and make Britain a clean energy superpower". But campaigners say at best the fuels will reduce aviation emissions "by a tiny fraction of the amount needed", and are being used to justify "irresponsible levels" of airport expansion. James Sutton, co-director of climate charity Possible, told Sky News they were not anti-investment, but that the SAF plans would not bring down emissions at the pace and scale necessary. He said: "We need to cut those emissions immediately if we have any hope of hitting our climate goals, not just sit and hope for the best in a few decades time. "The technology and investment required for SAF to displace kerosene entirely is simply not there yet, but policies aimed at reducing demand for flights and taxing frequent flyers, which will therefore cut emissions, are possible now. "So that is what we need to focus on first and foremost." The biggest winner in this round of funding was Stockton-on-Tees based Alfanar Energy, which will get £8m for converting waste wood from sawmills and forestry into SAF.

Renault 4 vs Ford Puma Gen-E: can French fancy declaw its EV rival?
There are two distinct routes that car makers can take to electrify their model line-ups. Depending on time frames and cost, some companies have been able to create bespoke electric car platforms, with scalable tech that can be adjusted to suit different requirements. That's the path Renault has chosen with the R4, a car that follows hot on the heels of the numerically larger, but physically smaller, Renault 5 supermini. Advertisement - Article continues below As the Captur is to the Clio, so the Renault 4 is to the 5, with its retro-inspired design adorning a larger SUV-style body that offers more space than the supermini's, but also features virtually identical technology on board. The second option is to electrify an existing combustion-engined platform. While Ford offers dedicated EV tech in its line-up, it has gone down this route with the new Ford Puma Gen-E, which is based on the firm's best seller, but without a trace of combustion power. In both instances, these small SUVs aim to deliver a usable range and decent everyday practicality in a package that is priced at a comparable point to the petrol-engined alternatives. But which one delivers the best overall experience? Model: Renault 4 E-Tech Techno Price: £28,995 Powertrain: 52kWh battery, 1x electric motor, 148bhp 0-62mph: 8.2 seconds Test efficiency: 4.0 miles/kWh Official range: 245 miles Annual VED: £195 Since the Renault 5 took design inspiration from the company's back catalogue, the French firm couldn't really do anything else with the SUV variant. The 4 is longer than the 5 hatchback overall and also has a longer wheelbase, so it's better suited to family duties. Power comes from the larger 52kWh battery found in the supermini, while prices are competitive: they start from £27,000 for Evolution trim, while Techno (our pick) costs £29,000 and the top-spec Iconic model in our pictures is £31,000. The Renault 4 draws design inspiration from the firm's back catalogue, but the E-Tech model is light years ahead in terms of quality. While the dash layout is identical to the R5's, the separate climate controls and stubby infotainment stalk positioned lower down on the steering column will be familiar to anyone who has driven a modern Renault. It does mean the right side of the steering wheel is a little busy, with the infotainment control, the wiper stalk and drive selector all closely packed together. Model: Ford Puma Gen-E Select Price: £29,995 Powertrain: 43kWh battery, 1x electric motor, 166bhp 0-62mph: 0-62mph: 8.0 seconds Test efficiency: 4.7 miles/kWh Official range: 234 miles Annual VED: £195 While the petrol Puma offers a few engine choices and trim options, the Gen-E line-up has been kept simple. There's just one powertrain, comprising a 53kWh battery (43kWh of which is usable) and a 166bhp electric motor that sends power to the front wheels. There are only two trim options, with the Select model coming in at five pounds under £30,000 and the higher-spec Premium costing £2,000 extra. However, even the base model tested here comes with a generous list of kit. It's one thing testing electric cars in the summer months, but in winter, colder temperatures will take a chunk out of the Puma's driving range. Ford mitigates against this by fitting the Gen-E with a heat pump as standard, which is surprising because it's an option on the pricier Explorer and Capri. The Puma also comes with Ford's excellent Quickclear windscreen, but a heated steering wheel and front seats are part of a £350 option pack. Most rival EVs feature these as standard as a quick way to get warm. Advertisement - Article continues below Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below View A3 Saloon View Swace Did you know you can sell your car through Auto Express ? We'll help you get a great price and find a great deal on a new car, too . The Puma is one of the best-handling small SUVs in petrol guise, and despite being around 200kg heavier, the Gen-E retains that car's fun character. In fact, the weight of the battery means it rides a bit more smoothly. It's not as comfortable as the Renault 4, though, which offers a soft edge that promotes cruising comfort. In terms of acceleration, there's not much in it, but the Puma feels punchier off the line. The Renault's cabin is carried over wholesale from the R5, so you get a modern-looking layout with plenty of tech and user-friendly details. It's a similar story with the Puma Gen-E, which features the same 12-inch touchscreen display as the petrol version, although as with that car, the screen's size and position mean that the steering wheel can end up obscuring some of the information nearest the driver. Both cars are great value for EVs, and it's worth noting that the electric Puma costs less than some of the highest-spec versions of the petrol model. Efficiency was strong for both cars, but the Renault's figure of 4.0mi/kWh was eclipsed by the Ford's, at 4.7mi/kWh. It means that while the Puma has nearly 10kWh less of usable capacity, its actual driving range is similar to that of the Renault's, at just over 200 miles on test. The Renault 4 is shorter than the Puma but has a longer wheelbase, while a wider cabin and taller roof mean it feels more spacious for back-seat passengers. A very low load lip is another benefit that the Renault carries over the Ford, but the Gen-E has the greater overall volume courtesy of its Gigabox, which is bigger than the petrol Puma's Megabox. Surprisingly, the Ford also has under-bonnet storage – the Renault doesn't. There are four-star Euro NCAP safety ratings for both cars here, with the Puma's score being carried over from the petrol version. On the R4, kit such as a door-opening warning and rear pedestrian-crossing alert when reversing are available solely on the top-spec version. The Puma only offers the latter, plus front parking sensors, adaptive cruise and blind-spot detection as part of a £950 Advanced Driver Assistance Pack. Warranty coverage is only average for the Puma, with a typical three-year/60,000-mile plan offered, although it can be extended at extra cost. For the Renault 4 there is four years and 100,000 miles of cover. As for servicing, intervals are every 24 months for both cars, although the Renault has an 18,000-mile limit. Ford includes the first five years of servicing in the price of the Puma to help reduce costs even further. What you're looking at here are possibly the two best small electric SUVs currently on sale, and choosing a winner is a tough call. However, we think that the Renault 4 has an advantage over the Ford, courtesy of its extra passenger space and slightly longer range. Advertisement - Article continues below Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below The striking retro-inspired looks help the R4 to stand out from the crowd, while the user-friendly touchscreen tech is easy to live with and the boot offers a useful amount of space. We'd like to see faster DC charging, and rear space is still a little compromised, but overall the Renault 4 is a great small electric SUV. BUY A NEW RENAULT 4 NOW Fans of the petrol Puma won't be disappointed with the electrified version. The battery's extra weight hasn't impacted the handling too severely, and has actually boosted comfort a little, while no compromises have been made in terms of passenger or boot space. That does mean the back seats are still a little on the small side, but if you regularly travel two-up, then this won't be an issue. Most impressive is the efficiency that the Puma returned on test, which made up for the relatively small battery. Add in competitive pricing, and the Gen-E deserves to sell well.
