The question
First time going electric; do I go for the Skoda Elroq 50 or BYD Atto 3? Don't do whole lot of driving and work is 5km away from me hence killing the GTD!

Hi Sharon,
The Elroq is nicer to drive, though the Atto 3 is noticeably faster and more responsive than the entry-level '50' model as it has a more powerful electric motor. The BYD also gets a bigger battery and longer range, but I suspect that isn't such an issue given your short commute.
I prefer the interior, style and quality of the Elroq, and it has a larger boot.
For my money, it would be the Skoda, though as ever we'd urge you to go test drive both to see which you prefer.
