Meet the all-new, all-electric Skoda Elroq

Skoda Elroq

Skoda has released the first official pictures of its Elroq compact SUV.

The camouflaged prototype looks like a cross between the bigger Enyaq and similarly-sized, conventionally-powered Karoq. It will have a range as high as 348 miles and charging times as quick as 28 minutes.

The first Skoda model to adopt the new ‘Modern Solid’ design language, it will combine comfort with practicality and value-for-money.

The introduction of the Elroq marks the beginning of Skoda’s new EV offensive, which will see the launch of six battery-electric cars over the coming years.

There’s no official word on UK pricing yet, but we’d expect the range to start below £40,000. Rivals will include the Volvo EX30, Ford Explorer and upcoming Kia EV3.
