Skoda Elroq electric lease deals

Leasing a Skoda Elroq in the UK

The Skoda brand has evolved into a manufacturer which is known for quality, comfort and, above all, value. Many years ago, the notion of driving a Skoda would instil fear into some UK leasing customers but when the Volkswagen Group acquired the Czech automobile company in 2000, there was a noticeable change in customer attitudes.

Combining the German quality for engineering with the Czech’s shrewd designs, the Skoda group emerged as a top talent in the UK. This hasn’t subsided when it comes to electric cars, with the Enyaq recognised as a truly robust SUV to lease. Indeed, it was peculiar when the Skoda team didn’t build on the success of this EV with more options, like the VW and Cupra brands did. 
But in October 2024, Skoda are now able to supply their customers with more than just the Enyaq – the new Skoda Elroq is now an option for those UK customers looking to buy or lease a compact SUV similar to options like the Hyundai Kona, Kia Niro EV and Volvo EX30.

Built on the MEB Platform, which is the VW dedicated chassis and infrastructure, this is aiming to bring electric efficiency but not at the expense of cost. With the UK facing challenges under the ZEV mandate, the price customers will pay for new and used EVs is now a hot topic.

But what options of the Elroq are available to lease?

As at 2024 the group have confirmed;

•  SE – from £31,500 this will include the 19” alloy wheels, 13” infotainment touchscreen, 5” digital cockpit, rear view camera, LED rear lights, keyless start/stop, 8-speaker sound, climate control, lane assist, traffic sign recognition, forward collision warning, DAB radio, SmartLink and cruise control;
•  Edition – from £38,650 this adds heated front seats and heated steering wheel, wireless charging, keyless entry, adaptive cruise control, tow bar preparation, heated and folding exterior mirrors, 19” Regulus alloys, privacy glass, front and rear parking sensors; 
•  SEL – coming later, this version will have heated front seats, satellite navigation and front parking sensors. This will sit a little below the Edition specification; and
•  Sportline – coming later, this top of the line model will add dynamic sports styling, gloss black finishes, 20” alloy wheels, sports suspension and an enhanced battery.

Key colours on the Elroq include the Race Blue, Timiano Green, Velvet Red, Moon White, Black Magic, Steel Grey and Energy Blue. In terms of additional options, choose from the Winter package (heated windscreen, heated front and rear seats plus tri-zone climate), Maxx Package (parking assist with remote parking, trained parking, power-adjustable lumbar support, area view, HUD.

Canton sound system, electrically adjustable seats, LED Matrix lights, cornering light function and electrically operated boot) and Plus Package (LED matrix lights, dynamic headlight control, LED rear lights, rear side airbags and electrically operated boot). The heat pump is available but as an additional option (used for generating interior heat without demanding on the battery) as is the tow-bar with adaptor (electrically retractable and pivoting).

While the Elroq could be on your wish-list, we do encourage all of our customers to research their future EV properly. Battery technology is an amazing facet which can lead to better driving experiences, lower fuel costs and improved servicing obligations. However, there are charging obligations, at home or work, range requirements and aspects like motor insurance and performance to take on board. All of this is eloquently set out on the website under “living with your …” and reiterated again in your key EV factsheet – the EVC™.
