When do you choose the Kia EV5 and when the Škoda Elroq?
Choose the Kia EV5 if…
- you want a roomy electric family SUV; ANWB and Autozine call passenger and luggage space generous
- you value comfort and a long warranty over the fastest charging
- you want to tow: up to 1,200 kg (front-wheel drive) or 1,800 kg (all-wheel drive)
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
These lists come from our own review of each model (compiled with the help of AI from the sources listed, facts checked automatically; we have not driven the cars). They are not a verdict on which of the two is better.
