Here comes the Škoda Elroq, a compact electric SUV

Long range, fast charging

The Elroq, like the related larger models of the Enyaq family, stands on the MEB platform and therefore uses proven technology. There will be three battery capacities (55, 63 and 82 kWh) and a total of four model versions: Elroq 50 with the smallest battery and 125 kW electric motor, Elroq 60 with medium capacity and 150 kW and two versions with the largest battery. Like the variants with smaller batteries, the Elroq 85 will have rear-wheel drive and a power output of 210 kW, and the Elroq 85x variant with all-wheel drive will also arrive in 2025.

These most powerful versions can also boast a top range of over 560 kilometers per charge and a maximum speed of 180 km/h. The other versions will travel at a maximum of 160 km/h and will travel over 400 km (Elroq 60) or over 370 km (Elroq 50) on a single charge. All in WLTP mode, of course. The charging of electric cars is also powerful, the maximum is 175 kW, so the model with the largest battery will be able to charge from 10 to 80% of battery capacity in just 28 minutes. The Elroq 60 and Elroq 50 charge at a maximum power of 165 or 145 kW, and charging from 10 to 80% can take less than 25 minutes.

To achieve a long range, the new Škoda compact electric SUV is helped by its refined aerodynamics with a drag coefficient cx of only 0.26. This great result goes hand in hand with the overall sleek minimalist look. In addition to the new Tech-Deck Face mask, the Elroq also brings a new interpretation of the divided headlight graphics in the spirit of the existing SUV models. This time they have a horizontal layout, always use LED technology (optional advanced LED Matrix) and have a modern flat, even two-dimensional, appearance.

The exclusive introductory First Edition will have LED Matrix headlights as standard, and its specialty will be an illuminated grille that connects both groups of headlights.

Introductory First Edition, where in addition to the LED Matrix headlights, the Light Band is not missing.
