Great review, Neil. Drove an Earth 2 58kW last Friday… lovely drive … smooths out the road surface, whereas the Soul feels most of the jiggly surfaces ( though that could be the tyres). EV3 feels very refined. Frunk is small - but enough for cable and jump pack (!). The Elroq has cable storage under the boot parcel shelf, but that’s no use when carrying the dog! With the way Skoda options packs work on Elroq, the EV3 looks the better deal. And with its 7 year warranty. Dealer (Vartry) hoping to have a few higher trim cars in the new year. It’s a very tempting motor !
What a lovely car. I would go for the Air trim level though, because the top spec is going to push you into the higher road tax bracket for luxury cars. It's just a pity that the HVAC isn't available in the cheaper models, even as an extra. This will likely be our primary vehicle.
good review i drove the earth 2 long range and its a lot more comfortable to drive then my ev6 i like the cloth seats and i think the interior looks better then the earth 3 or the GT as it doesn't have that sliding shelf
Great review! I'm not a fan of that slide out dollar store cutting board as a covered console storage area would be much more useful and attractive. I think the larger battery is a good option to offset the fall in range during the winter months, especially since a heat pump is not standard.

Great review as usual from Neil. It looks very tight in the back!!! Forgot to mention- you're up there with Harry Metcalfe.
Neil always delivers! It is a little cosy in the back.
