We didn't go for it. The responses we got from the dealership and Skoda's central customer service were evasive at best and perhaps even actively dishonest. No-one else I spoke to agreed that 86% sounded like a good result -- as your stats seem to indicate. The dealer's insistence it was "one of the best results we've seen" along with Skoda's refusal to say anything about what it would consider a reasonable battery life just made us look elsewhere. We bought an Ioniq 5 -- Hyundai were by contrast totally transparent with us and we've been happy with our choice so far. It's a shame because on paper the Enyaq was absolutely the car we wanted.

I think it's possible to get something from the OBD-II port, though I'm not sure how accurate it is.

More in fact -- it's claiming almost 5 years on the life of a car manufactured in 2022 - 3.5 years ago. Thank you, yes that's helpful and matches my expectations more closely. The fact that the dealer insists these are normal figures (and gave me an example) makes me very wary too. At best, I don't trust that they've carried out the tests correctly in which case it's an unknown quantity. At worst, they're genuine and the batteries in cars they're selling have regularly taken a hammering.

Hi all, new user here after some (hopefully quick) answers before I sign on the dotted line. I just test drove a used Enyaq at a Skoda dealer and was almost ready to go for it until I saw the battery report: First registration: 2022-01-22 Mileage: 67356 km Residual Energy Content: 86% Total energy charged: 16407.45 kWh Charged DC energy: 1269.12 kWh Share of charged DC energy: 7.74% Total standing time: 1212 days Standing time fully charged: 2177 days Share of standing time fully charged: 179.54% Three questions: 1. That 86% sounds low for 3.5 years and 67356 km. How bad is that, and if we look after it in future (charge to 80% etc) does that mitigate further deterioration? What does that "share of standing time" figure mean, and how can it be >100%? Have they got something wrong or am I misunderstanding? Given some of this uncertainty I want to confirm that this car definitely supports 125kW DC charging. Can that be looked up from the registration number somewhere? Research indicates it's on the cusp of the upgrade time, but I've nothing but sales person's verbal assurance that the 80's always have 125kW charging to go on. Sales person was telling me that "86% is one of the best battery healths I've seen on an EV of this age" which doesn't ring true either. They said there was a car with 40km on the clock the other day with ~85% battery health and that was typical. Looking for some reassurance that I'm worrying about nothing or else a warning to steer clear. Thanks
