EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 232 miles for the MG S6 EV and 208 miles for the Skoda Enyaq - both below their WLTP figures, because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. The MG S6 EV goes roughly 24 miles further between charging stops.

So the MG S6 EV stops less often while the Skoda Enyaq stops for less time - pick on which you would rather do.

The Skoda Enyaq is the easier car for tight UK car parks: it is 33 mm narrower than the MG S6 EV. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 521 mm of total clearance for the Skoda Enyaq and about 488 mm of total clearance for the MG S6 EV. The Skoda Enyaq also turns in a 1.8 m tighter circle, which helps with U-turns and multi-storey ramps.
