Skoda is rolling out a suite of updates for its electric bestsellers, the Elroq and Enyaq, with improvements focused on infotainment, charging, and everyday usability.
Set to arrive from mid-2026, the updates build on strong sales momentum, as both models ranked among Europe’s top 10 electric vehicles in 2025.
The headline change is a revamped infotainment system. Running on an updated Android-based platform, it brings a redesigned interface, improved personalisation and a more intuitive layout.
Beyond the screen, Skoda has focused on practical upgrades. A new Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function allows the cars to power external devices via a 230V outlet, useful for everything from camping gear to power tools.
One-pedal driving has also been enhanced, with adjustable regeneration levels capable of bringing the car to a full stop without touching the brake.
Driver assistance has been sharpened through an updated Travel Assist system, with improved sensors, smoother speed control and more advanced lane guidance. Emergency Assist can now guide the vehicle to the hard shoulder if the driver becomes unresponsive.
New hardware also includes corner radars for better cross-traffic detection and an interior camera that monitors driver attention.
At the entry level, both models will switch to LFP battery technology, aimed at improving durability and lowering costs for everyday users.
Performance figures remain familiar. As shown in the specification tables on pages 4 and 5, outputs range from 140kW in base models up to 250kW in RS variants, with 0 to 100km/h times as low as 5.4 seconds.
With more features packed into an already popular pair of EVs, Skoda’s latest update leans into usability: less about headline numbers, more about making electric ownership easier day to day.
