Skoda Elroq Sketches: A Foray Into Skoda's Evolving Design Thinking

The new design language of the upcoming Skoda Elroq reveals a significant departure from the brands traditional styling cues. Notably absent is the iconic mustache grille, as this electric vehicle forgoes the conventional radiator grille in favor of a sleek, tech-inspired front end. The new look features a tech-deck face, highlighted by a split headlamp arrangement. The upper section showcases a slim LED bar, while the lower part is integrated into a distinctive boomerang-shaped recess. Additionally, the familiar circular Skoda logo has been replaced with bold "SKODA" lettering, marking a fresh evolution in the brands design philosophy.

The rear design of the Skoda Elroq maintains a familiar look, echoing the brand's current SUV lineup with its sharply styled wraparound LED tail-lights and centrally positioned Skoda emblem. The dark chrome lettering on both the front and rear adds a touch of sophistication and the lettering itself imparts a distinctive characteristic and a sense of familiarity.

Inside, the Elroq impresses with a minimalist yet modern cabin. The centerpiece is a large infotainment screen, flanked by a minimal number of physical buttons situated beneath the central air vents. The interior also features a two-spoke steering wheel with the Skoda lettering and a fully digital instrument cluster, highlighting the vehicles commitment to contemporary design and advanced technology. While these are the sketches, the production-spec model might offer some practical deviations, but more likely you are expected to get what you see here.

Skoda Elroq: Battery And Range

The Skoda Elroq will be available in four distinct variants: Elroq 50, 60, 85, and 85x. Each variant will offer different battery capacities and power outputs, ranging from 168 hp to 295 hp. Buyers can choose from three battery options55 kWh, 63 kWh, and 82 kWheach supporting either rear-wheel drive (RWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD) configurations. The Elroq boasts an impressive claimed range of over 560 km, a pretty solid number to claim.

While its European debut is set for early 2025, its Indian debut is also being considered alongside the Enyaq EV, which has taken its sweet time but is finally confirmed for launch.

Verdict

Skoda Elroq promises to be a compelling addition to the electric SUV market with its versatile battery options and impressive range. Set to make its global debut later this year and a European launch in early 2025, the Elroq's potential entry into the Indian market alongside the Enyaq iV could mark a significant expansion of Skoda's electric vehicle lineup in the region. As Skoda continues to innovate, the Elroq stands out as a key model to watch in the evolving EV landscape both in the country, as well as globally.
