Skoda Elroq

Can this all-new EV shake up the burgeoning electric compact SUV class?

The new Skoda Elroq is the Czech marque’s second bespoke EV and marks its assault on the electric compact crossover class – a move that it hopes will help bolster its position as Europe’s fourth best-selling car brand.This is effectively the electric equivalent of the Karoq, but it’s not a reworked version of the ICE car: it uses the same electrical underpinnings as the larger Skoda Enyaq. Skoda has already found success in the electric car market, with the Enyaq climbing to the very top of EV sales charts. But the Elroq’s task is undoubtedly harder, as it’s entering a segment that has mushroomed in popularity. There’s a plethora of rivals already baying for the attention of British buyers, such as the Ford Explorer, Volvo EX30 and Kia EV3. So, is the Elroq up to the task?
