Po bad result of the Ford Mustang Mach-E in the moose test here we have another electric car, which will not give its certificate for the frame – Škoda Enyaq iV. The test of the Spanish web magazine km77.com, which regularly deals with moose tests, passed at a speed of only 67 km / h.

The moose test is an evasive maneuver that assesses a car’s dexterity and the art of instantly avoiding unexpected obstacles on the road – and then returning to your lane. The higher the speed at which the car test passes safely, in a controlled manner and without knocking down the cones, the better the safety of the car is evaluated.

The tested car had 180 horsepower, ie only the rear-wheel drive wheels, and a smaller variant of the battery. The first attempt took place at 77 km / h and the test driver says that he did not feel in any danger and the car was manoeuvrable – but collided with three cones. In further experiments, the car’s performance was much worse, which the driver attributes to a possible deterioration in the performance of Bridgestone Turanza Eco tires.

The car tends to oversteer in the second set of cones, and the ESP system tries to stabilize it, according to the Spaniards, but does not disturb oversteer in the third set of cones. “The problem with enyaq is that it suddenly ceases to be manageable at the end of the test,” says the driver, adding that ESP sometimes adds oversteer. However, he did not encounter anything like that during the sharp driving on winding roads, he says.

Similar behavior was shown by the previously tested Volkswagen ID.4, which is technically very close to the enyaq, but its result was much better – 73 km / h. He rode the same tires, only an inch larger – and the driver then attributed the lack of lateral adhesion to the tires.
