When do you choose the Kia EV3 and when the Škoda Elroq?

Choose the Kia EV3 if…

  • you want a compact electric car with a long WLTP range (up to 605 km with the large battery)
  • the people in the back are mostly children (ANWB finds rear space for adults disappointing)
  • you want an efficient car: ANWB measured 17.1 kWh/100 km in its test
  • you want to tow: up to 1,000 kg (81.4 kWh, front-wheel drive) or 1,500 kg (all-wheel drive)

From our review of the Kia EV3

Choose the Škoda Elroq if…

  • you want a roomy electric SUV: ANWB and Autozine call the interior space, rear legroom in particular, generous for the size
  • you drive a lot of kilometres or often charge publicly: Autozine sees the 85 battery (77 kWh net, up to 576 km WLTP) as the choice for drivers who worry about range
  • you occasionally tow: the 85 versions and the RS may tow 1,800 kg braked, the 60 no more than 1,000 kg
