Skoda has announced the introduction of a new long-range model to its Elroq line-up, along with confirmation of models eligible for the UK Government’s Electric Car Grant (ECG) of £1,500. The new Elroq SE L 85 features an 82kWh battery, delivering a WLTP combined driving range of up to 355 miles. This addition aims to make electric motoring more accessible and affordable for UK drivers. The Elroq, launched earlier this year, has already enjoyed significant sales and critical success, topping UK battery electric vehicle sales in July 2025 and earning the title of Car of the Year from Auto Express.
The Elroq range, including the new SE L 85 model, qualifies for the ECG discount, with prices starting from £31,710 OTR for the Elroq SE 50, or £30,210 with the discount applied. Most derivatives in the Elroq range are eligible for the ECG, except for the range-topping Elroq vRS. The new Elroq SE L 85 is priced at £35,560 OTR, including the £1,500 discount. Skoda’s Enyaq range, updated earlier this year, also qualifies for the ECG discount.
The ECG discount will be automatically applied at the point of purchase, with no additional paperwork required. The following Skoda models are eligible for the ECG: Elroq SE 50, Elroq SE L 60, Elroq SE L 85, Elroq Edition 60, Elroq Edition 85, Elroq SportLine 60, Elroq SportLine 85, Enyaq SE L 60, and Enyaq Edition 60. These models offer a range of options for customers, from the entry-level Elroq SE 50 to the long-range Elroq SE L 85.
With the introduction of the new Elroq SE L 85 and the ECG discount, Skoda is further enhancing its position in the electric vehicle market. The Elroq’s competitive pricing, combined with its impressive range and features, makes it an attractive option for customers looking to switch to electric motoring. The Enyaq range, with its updated design and improved performance, also offers a compelling choice for those seeking a practical and comfortable electric vehicle. Overall, Skoda’s latest announcements are set to provide a double bonus for customers, making electric motoring more accessible and affordable than ever.
