Skoda

Skoda's new Elroq electric SUV has hit the production lines at the company's main plant in Mladá Boleslav, Czech Republic. Sharing the assembly line with its larger sibling, the Enyaq, and the combustion-powered Octavia, the Elroq marks Skoda's ambitious return into the affordable electric vehicle segment. With over 20,000 orders already placed, the Elroq is generating a lot of excitement among buyers looking for a practical and affordable electric SUV.

Elroq's strategic positioning between segments is a key factor in its appeal. Measuring 176.38 inches in length, it slots neatly between the larger Enyaq and VW ID.4 (180.32 inches) and the compact VW ID.3 and Cupra Born (168.5 inches). This clever sizing, combined with its SUV design, provides ample space and versatility while maintaining a compact footprint.

The latest electric Skoda comes with a few powertrain options. The base Elroq 50 has a 52 kWh battery and a 125 kW motor, while the Elroq 60 gets a bigger 59 kWh battery and a 150 kW motor. The top-of-the-range Elroq 85 comes equipped with a 77 kWh battery and is available in two variants: a 210 kW rear-wheel-drive model and a 220 kW all-wheel-drive model.

Skoda's famous affordability is back with Elroq's starting price of $39,700. This competitive pricing strategy should attract buyers who may have previously found electric vehicles a tad too expensive. By offering a compelling combination of practicality, performance, and value, Skoda hopes to make a good impression on potential buyers.

Since this is the first vag product produced with a Frunk I'd categorize this as the first ever EV made by the group.

It is not clear why they are against the safer and more robust LFP chemistry.
