New kid on the block
- Skoda Australia will launch the Elroq electric SUV in September 2025 with limited units available locally for the rest of the year.
- The launch follows Skoda's plans to offer two rear-wheel-drive variants powered by the same 210kW motor and 82kWh battery, targeting a competitive mid-size EV segment.
- The Elroq is 4488mm long, matching the Enyaq's 2765mm wheelbase but shorter overall, and offers 470 litres of boot space, positioning it closer to the BYD Atto 3 in size.
- Pricing starts at $54,990 before on-road costs for the 85 Select, with a higher-spec 130 Edition at $64,990, and Skoda expects a roughly equal sales split and about 350 units in 2025, doubling in 2026.
- The Elroq claims a 0-100km/h time of 6.6 seconds and a WLTP range of 529 km, exceeding the driving range of rivals like the BYD Sealion 7 and Tesla Model Y, suggesting strong market competitiveness.
