Skoda’s second electric vehicle for Australia is officially here and it’s gunning straight for the mainstream. The all-new Skoda Elroq, a compact SUV based on the Enyaq platform, has been priced from $54,990 before on-road costs, making it Skoda’s most affordable EV in the country so far.

Australia is among the first markets globally to receive the Elroq, with deliveries set to begin from August or September 2025. Skoda is targeting first-time EV buyers with this compact, high-range electric SUV that blends practicality, performance, and the brand’s clever design quirks.

Designed to compete

The Elroq slots below the larger Enyaq SUV and offers a compelling package at a price point that undercuts the Tesla Model Y RWD, while offering a longer range than BYD’s Atto 3. Here's how it stacks up:

ModelPrice (before on-roads) Range (WLTP) PowerDC Fast Charging
Skoda Elroq 85 Select $54,990 Up to 529 km 210 kW RWD Up to 175 kW

What you get with the Elroq

All Australian-bound Elroq variants feature a single rear-mounted electric motor delivering 210 kW and 545 Nm, powered by a usable 77 kWh battery (82 kWh gross). That’s enough for a 0–100 km/h sprint in just 6.6 seconds.

Skoda claims a WLTP-tested range of up to 529 km, though that’s slightly lower than European figures due to heavier spec levels and larger wheels on Australian models.

Charging specs include:

  • DC fast charging up to 175 kW (10–80% in ~28 minutes)
  • AC charging at 11 kW, full charge in ~8 hours
