Skoda Octavia or Elroq?
The question
Hi,
I'm considering the Skoda Octavia 1.5 Sportline MHEV and the Skoda Elroq 85 Sportline. I drive 25km daily to work and back in city traffic and the odd occasional Wexford/Waterford jaunt. I have my own driveway so fitting a charger wouldn't be an issue.
On paper, which of these would suit me better?

Hi Brendan,
You're in a great position to go electric and the Elroq would be perfectly suited to your needs. Not that your fuel costs are high with such low mileage, but they'll be kept to a minimum with the EV, so that's the one that makes most sense so long as it doesn't cost you way more to buy.
Just make sure that the Elroq's boot is big enough for your needs, as the Octavia's is much larger.
Aside from that, go and test drive both for yourself to see which you prefer.
