Sort of - they are both built on the same platform, but ID.7 is more like a saloon (VW refers to it as a 'fastback), than an SUV.
That’s extremely helpful - many thanks!
That must be annoying! Especially for people who 'play by the rules' and leave it with a decent amount. In the world of motoring journalism, I hear a lot of stories from delivery drivers about how they often barely don't have enough charge to get to a charger when they pick cars up. Despite the fact that the journos get the cars with at least 80/90%. Although it is/was often the same with ICE cars.
Yeah, ICE or EV, you’d expect to give it back as full as it arrived.
The Enyaq is the is the Skoda version of the VW ID4.
I dare say it helps to have no national debt and a vast sovereign wealth fund. It means the government can lose all the petrol taxes and pay for the infrastructure without having to cut back, or tax more, elsewhere.I guess its easier in Norway, they're super rich with a small population.
That said it proves it can be done

It's a shame the UK's profits from the same north sea oil fields that built up Norway's sovereign wealth fund were mostly siphoned off by the private sector.
Thatcher had north sea oil revenue at its peak, sold off all the family silver and somehow gets lauded by many as being the UK's nest ever PM.
That opinion is for the birds...
A lot easier to build up that wealth fund when you only have 5 million to spend it on rather then the 70 million we have.
If recent PMs are anything to go by, Thatcher could have been rubbish and might still been one of the best ever.
Not really. You just have to resist the temptation to spunk it all straight away.
your assumption has a couple of flaws. firstly Norway developed it's fields far later, 10-15 years for similar output, when prices were higher. second in UK the revenue in 80s was a few % of GDP, while in Norway it's 30-40% GDP. yes, our windfall was spaffed on immediate spending of NHS, welfare, tax cuts etc, the Norwegians literally didn't know what to do with the money other than form an investment fund.
