9/10

AI generated from our expert reviews

Both of these electric models provide plenty of adjustability in their front seats, but each could be more comfortable when dealing with bumpy, rough roads. Practicality sets them apart: the Skoda Epiq gives you a bigger boot than the Cupra Raval, and its infotainment system proves more user-friendly than the Cupra's setup with its annoying touch-sensitive climate control sliders.
