2026 Skoda Elroq 60 Select

• Elroq 60 Select pairs a 63 kWh battery with a 150 kW rear-drive motor, delivering around 395 km WLTP range.

• Standard kit includes a 13-inch touchscreen, heated front seats, wireless phone integration and a full suite of driver assistance systems.

• Positioned as the entry model, it lowers the barrier to Škoda’s EV lineup without skimping on everyday usability.

Familiar design, sharpened for the electric era

The Elroq is the first Škoda built entirely around the company’s “Modern Solid” design direction. On the 60 Select, that translates into the Tech-Deck Face front treatment: a closed-off mask where a traditional grille would sit, framed by slim LED headlights. The look is confident without being flashy, a trait that has long defined Škoda.

The Select trim rolls on standard 19-inch alloys, with LED headlamps and taillights included. Buyers can step things up with an optional Signature Pack that brings Matrix LED lighting, a head-up display and 20-inch wheels. The overall stance is upright and practical, very much in the compact SUV mould, but with a tidier, more urban edge than the larger Enyaq.

Battery, motor and range

Under the skin, the Elroq 60 Select uses a 63 kWh battery, about 59 usable, feeding a single rear-mounted electric motor rated at 150 kW and 310 Nm. That’s enough to push the car from 0 to 100 km/h in roughly eight seconds. Performance isn’t the headline here, but for family duty and daily commuting it strikes the right balance.

Range is quoted at about 395 km on the WLTP cycle, which places it neatly alongside rivals in this class. Charging options are solid too: up to 165 kW at a DC fast-charger, or up to 11 kW on AC for overnight top-ups at home or work. It’s a setup aimed squarely at buyers who need something simple, reliable and easy to live with.

Inside the cabin

Step inside and the Elroq 60 Select feels modern, without sliding into gimmickry. A 13-inch central touchscreen dominates the dash, backed by a digital instrument cluster. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, as is wireless phone charging. USB-C ports are scattered throughout, so devices won’t be left fighting for power.

Comfort equipment is generous. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are included, along with an adjustable driver’s seat offering lumbar support. Materials are in keeping with Škoda’s usual pragmatic approach — durable and neat rather than showy. Subtle LED ambient lighting softens the interior atmosphere at night.

Practicality is still front of mind. The Elroq makes space for Škoda’s “Simply Clever” touches: an umbrella stashed in the driver’s door, thoughtful cubbies around the cabin, and even a QR code in the boot linking to usage guides. It’s the kind of detail that reinforces the brand’s reputation for fuss-free usability.

Safety and driver tech

Like most modern EVs, the Elroq 60 Select is packed with driver assistance systems. Lane keeping, traffic sign recognition, rear traffic alert and autonomous emergency braking all come standard. For those who want more, the optional Signature Pack adds Matrix LED headlights, a 360-degree camera system and a head-up display.

This level of kit is what you’d expect from a family-oriented SUV in 2026, and Škoda delivers it in a way that doesn’t complicate the user experience.

Everyday usability

Although the Elroq slots beneath the Enyaq, it hasn’t forgotten the basics. There’s plenty of space for passengers front and rear, with decent head and legroom across both rows. Cargo capacity is competitive with other compact electric SUVs, and the rear seats fold to open up further room when needed.

It’s the kind of car that makes sense for city living. Compact enough to park without stress, yet still practical enough for school runs and weekend trips. Škoda has been careful to keep that balance intact.

The Elroq 60 Select is pitched as the most affordable Elroq. In Australia it arrives at AUD 47,990 before on-road costs, or AUD 49,990 drive-away. Other markets will vary, but the message is the same: this is the gateway into Škoda’s new EV range.
