Eleroq by Skoda

Vehicle comparison:

I've decided to sell my 21 E-Niro and lease a Skoda Elroq instead. I am quite satisfied with the E-Niro. My first electric vehicle; it bolstered my faith in EVs to an unprecedented degree; now I just cannot fathom reverting to ICE. My '2' spec E-Niro was lacking in conveniences and quickness when it came to charging, so I upgraded because I wanted a new automobile. The Elroq was offered at a steep discount for a three-year lease! less expensive than the EV3.


My initial thoughts on the Elroq are that it is an exceptionally pleasant vehicle to use; on these chilly mornings, I am particularly fond of the car's heated steering wheel and seats. I did purchase the Sportsline, but the 'kit' is great overall.

The consumption of "fuel" has been the sole source of disappointment. The Elroq has a larger battery, but I'm not experiencing any more range, and I could possibly be seeing a little decrease. In the summer, my E-Niro's typical electricity consumption was about 4.5 to 5.0 miles/KWh, and it consistently achieved 320 miles on a full charge. In the winter, though, it dropped to roughly 4.0 to 4.5 miles/KWh, and on long, cold highway drives, it dropped to 3.5 miles/KWh or lower. With regular winter driving, I have not been able to improve the Elroq's performance to greater than 3.5 thus yet. Okay, so the heavier larger battery won't help, the 20-inch wheels won't either (and they're worse on potholes than the Kia), and I might end up utilising the heated seats and battery pre-conditioner more often than before. In any case, I've come to understand that we ought to be really appreciative of the E-Niro efficiency and the precise range predictor.

I will continue to drive my 2021 E-Niro because of this.
Although I am in a position to purchase a new vehicle. The Niro is the most efficient vehicle I've ever used, yet thanks to the 4+, I have all the bells and whistles I could want.

Sure thing. If we decide to change cars in the future, I will have a really hard time finding one. 4-plus FTW. Comfy seats are the greatest!

I quickly topped up the battery on the way home yesterday. It was vital. It just took ten minutes, and I could have been gone in five if I had preconditioned first (average 145 KW). Although many may not be concerned about this, it is likely the primary "deficit" of the E-Niro.

In terms of charging speed, I would concur. However, aside from a weeklong vacation. Everyone else's is at home. Therefore, charge your device during a dinner, coffee, or shopping break if there is no on-site charging available.
