A really lovely car with space for a wheelchair and much more, which we've had for almost 14 years and driven over 200,000 km with. Now the gearbox has failed and we'd like to buy a new one.

For me personally, compared directly with the ID4 "GTX", the Elroq is the slightly more mature and better-thought-out car for everyday use. It offers better ride comfort, software that runs a bit more smoothly for me, and by far the nicer design.

First electric buy, so glad we chose the Elroq. Everything is so intuitive, car very spacious comfortable and nicely appointed, everything just feels right. Turning circle of 9.3M is so useful for such a largish car. Only small gripe is it's has quite a bit of road noise at 100KPH plus, absolutely fine below .

EV built for 80 km/h roads; range is very disappointing if you use the highway daily. You won't find this in the specifications. Which means in hindsight it wasn't the right choice.
Comfort fine.
Car catches a lot of wind; a lot of wind noise/whistling.
It's a shame that you have to reset a number of functions every time you start; no automatic memory.

We’ve been driving the Elroq 85 Sportline for four weeks. Nice SUV — functional and not overdone. Downside for me: software issues. Infotainment crashed once so far, and the traffic-sign recognition isn’t updating (often shows outdated roadworks).
